Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on December 26, 2025, included enforcement action with a fine of $1,750 that has been paid in full. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related to tuberculosis screening, personnel records, service plans, medication administration, environmental standards, and quality management reporting. Prior complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, and enforcement actions involved fines but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings are listed in the available reports. The facility has faced repeated issues with documentation, service plan compliance, and staff training over time. While deficiencies have persisted, the payment of fines and continued inspections suggest ongoing regulatory oversight without escalation to more severe enforcement.
