Inspection Reports for Grace Assisted Living – Grace Boise Englefield
ID, 83709
Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on October 17, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies related to medication management, documentation, staff training, and safety measures. Earlier inspections showed a mix of issues including improper staff qualifications for resident assessments and several life safety code violations such as non-operational emergency lights and building maintenance concerns. Complaint investigations were part of the last two inspections, with substantiated findings involving medication errors, incomplete records, and failure to follow medical orders. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The pattern of deficiencies suggests ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, particularly in medication administration and safety protocols, without clear improvement over time.
