Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on April 11, 2024, found multiple deficiencies related to food preparation, emergency preparedness, medication management, and resident care. Earlier inspections also identified similar issues, and this follow-up survey confirmed that previous correction orders were substantially complied with, though deficiencies remained. Inspectors cited problems with fire safety measures, staffing requirements, documentation, and the adequacy of social and recreational programming. No complaint investigations or enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were listed in the available reports. The pattern of findings suggests ongoing challenges in meeting regulatory standards, with some progress noted but additional improvements needed.
