From September 2014 through February 2023, Hale Creek Manor maintained a clean compliance record with zero deficiencies across initial licensing and renewal inspections. In December 2023, a substantiated complaint documented a bed bug infestation lasting approximately two years. The facility had lacked a written bed bug policy and procedure. Eight exterminator visits were documented.
The June 3, 2024 renewal inspection identified three deficiencies. Employee tuberculosis screenings were not completed within required timeframes or records were missing. Both soiled and clean linen storage areas contained non-linen items, creating cross contamination risk. Multiple food items in the kitchen and memory care dry storage were not dated or labeled with open dates, making it unclear if they remained safe for consumption.
At the June 2024 renewal, census was 18 residents in a 43-bed capacity.
No enforcement actions or fines are documented.
Hale Creek Manor is structured for assisted living and memory care in a rural Iosco setting, with recent findings documenting infection control and food safety deficiencies that represent a shift from the facility’s prior clean record.
