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 19, 2025, identified one deficiency related to ensuring a resident was treated with dignity, respect, and consideration. Earlier inspections showed a mix of deficiencies primarily involving caregiver training and documentation, pet licensing and vaccination, and safety policies including first aid and fall prevention. Enforcement actions in late 2023 included fines for an uncertified caregiver and repeat issues with pet licensing and rabies vaccination, with a $1,000 fine fully paid. Complaint investigations conducted over the past two years were mostly unsubstantiated, with no deficiencies found during those reviews. The facility’s inspection history shows some recurring documentation and safety issues, but more recent inspections suggest a reduction in the number and scope of deficiencies.
