An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The facility’s state inspection record is mixed, with several deficiencies found in the most recent July 31, 2025 inspection, including retaining a bedridden resident without proper fire clearance and missing staff training records, resulting in a $500 civil penalty. Prior inspections noted issues with incomplete staff health screenings, missing TB tests, and care plan updates, while complaint investigations from 2022 through 2025 were mostly unsubstantiated except for substantiated care failures causing pressure wounds and insufficient staffing. The record shows some improvement in compliance but ongoing challenges with documentation, training, and resident care oversight.
