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 September 25, 2023, identified deficiencies in several areas including employee health screenings, medication administration documentation, food and kitchen sanitation, and water temperature regulation. Earlier inspections showed mixed results, with a substantiated complaint investigation in August 2023 related to medication administration issues, while prior licensing inspections found the facility in compliance. The main themes of deficiencies involved medication management, employee records, and food safety practices. Complaint investigations included one substantiated case regarding medication errors, but no enforcement actions or fines were listed in the available reports. The pattern of findings suggests ongoing challenges in medication administration and food service compliance without clear improvement over time.
