Most inspections at this facility were clean, with no deficiencies cited in the annual inspections from January 2022 through January 2025, showing a generally well-maintained environment. However, several complaint investigations found deficiencies related primarily to medication management and resident care, including missed or incorrect medication administration and failure to provide prescribed diets or proper supervision. The most serious issues involved a substantiated case in October 2025 where a staff member administered narcotics while impaired and documented medication administration inaccurately, posing immediate health and safety risks; the facility responded by suspending the staff member and notifying law enforcement. Other notable past deficiencies included failure to prevent resident elopement and inadequate administrative oversight, but these were isolated and addressed. The most recent report from October 28, 2025, did have deficiencies, indicating some ongoing challenges with medication safety despite improvements in other areas.
An unannounced Case Management deficiencies inspection was conducted to address concerns regarding an incident report dated 10/24/25 related to reported medication violations.
Findings
The inspection found that a staff member (S1) documented administering a narcotic medication to a resident who was not present at the time, and the staff member was under the influence of a narcotic during medication administration. The facility administrator suspended the staff member pending investigation, and law enforcement and the resident's family were notified.
Complaint Details
The visit was complaint-related based on an incident report alleging medication violations involving unaccounted narcotics and staff impairment. The complaint is substantiated by written statements and investigation findings.
