The most recent report from March 20, 2025, identified two deficiencies: one resident was bedridden despite the license allowing only non-ambulatory residents, posing an immediate health and safety risk, and two staff members lacked the required annual training hours. Earlier reports noted issues with missing physician assessments for residents with dementia, but the March 21, 2022 inspection was clean with no deficiencies. Several complaint investigations were not listed, indicating no substantiated complaints in the available reports. Overall, the facility had isolated issues mostly related to resident care documentation and staff training, with the latest report showing a serious licensing violation.
