Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
- The most recent inspection on September 3, 2024, identified multiple deficiencies related to resident rights, medication administration, staffing, and facility maintenance. Earlier inspections were not provided for comparison, so it is unclear if these issues represent a new or ongoing pattern. Inspectors cited concerns with incomplete resident assessments, medication record errors, insufficient staffing coverage, and inadequate emergency preparedness, among other documentation and procedural gaps. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports, and no complaint investigations were noted. Without prior data, it is not possible to determine a clear trend in compliance over time.
