An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on January 17, 2025, found deficiencies related to failure to report allegations of sexual abuse and failure to take appropriate actions after resident falls, with a civil fine imposed for the latter. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of recurring issues involving resident safety, abuse prevention, infection control, medication management, and fire safety, with multiple civil fines totaling several thousand dollars. Complaint investigations substantiated failures in abuse reporting and prevention, medication security, and staff training, including incidents leading to resident injury and hospitalization. Enforcement actions included fines for uncorrected deficiencies related to falls, fire safety, infection control, and wheelchair safety, but no license suspensions or revocations were listed in the available reports. While some follow-up inspections found corrections, many deficiencies recurred over time, indicating ongoing challenges in fully addressing key safety and care requirements.
