Inspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on June 13, 2025, found the facility generally in compliance with Life Safety Code requirements but cited one deficiency related to the clear width of exit and exit access doors. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily involving Life Safety Code issues such as exit door widths and emergency preparedness, as well as care-related concerns including medication management, infection control, and care planning. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated or found no deficiencies, except for one substantiated complaint that did not result in cited deficiencies. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history shows some improvement in Life Safety Code compliance over time, although care-related deficiencies appeared in the middle of the timeline before being addressed in follow-up visits.
