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 22, 2025, found no deficiencies during the recertification survey for the Assisted Living Program. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to assessment and documentation practices, including failures to complete timely functional and cognitive evaluations and to update service plans accordingly. Complaint investigations generally did not substantiate regulatory insufficiencies, except for one substantiated finding in December 2019 involving inconsistent incident reporting and failure to notify a tenant’s legal guardian. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s record appears to have improved over time, with recent inspections showing no cited deficiencies.
