Inspection Report Summary
Most inspections at Glen Terra Assisted Living Facility were clean, with the most recent annual inspection on September 21, 2025, showing no deficiencies and confirming the facility was well-maintained and properly staffed. Several complaint investigations over the years were unsubstantiated, indicating that many concerns raised by residents or families were not supported by evidence. However, some deficiencies were cited, mainly related to documentation and care plan updates, such as failure to update a resident’s appraisal plan and submit timely incident reports in the September 18, 2025 complaint investigation. More serious issues occurred in 2022 and early 2023, including substantiated findings of inadequate supervision leading to resident falls with fractures, resulting in civil penalties totaling at least $1,000. The facility appears to have improved recently, with no deficiencies noted in the latest reports after addressing prior concerns.
