Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on June 19, 2024, found no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a mixed pattern with some citations related to staff training and documentation, as well as resident care issues such as inadequate wound care and supervision lapses leading to resident elopement. Prior substantiated complaints included failures in ensuring adequate care, updating service plans, and preventing abuse, but no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. Most complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, with the exception of a few substantiated cases involving resident safety and care plan deficiencies. The facility appears to have addressed some earlier issues, as the most recent inspections have been free of cited violations.
