Inspection Reports for Glenwood Health Center by Harborview
4115 Glenwood Rd, Decatur, GA , United States, GA, 30032
Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on July 1, 2025, did not cite any deficiencies. Prior inspections show a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to resident care issues such as verbal abuse by staff, privacy concerns, and infection control, as well as environmental and safety concerns including smoking policy enforcement and kitchen cleanliness. A substantiated complaint in May 2025 involved verbal abuse by staff, resulting in terminations, while earlier complaints often were unsubstantiated or corrected upon revisit surveys. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows improvement over time, with recent inspections confirming correction of previously cited deficiencies.
