Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on May 6, 2025, found deficiencies related to missing current fire and building safety inspection reports and damaged ceiling tiles with bacterial growth on the third floor. Earlier inspections showed a recurring pattern of building maintenance issues, including fire safety documentation gaps, ceiling damage, and mechanical system problems, as well as prior medication administration and staffing deficiencies. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, with no enforcement actions or fines listed in the available reports. Prior reports noted medication errors, delayed staff responses, and infection control concerns, but the recent deficiencies focus mainly on physical plant and safety documentation. The facility’s issues with building maintenance and safety documentation have persisted over time, while clinical care deficiencies appear to have lessened in more recent inspections.
