Inspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on November 8, 2019, found no deficiencies and confirmed the facility was in compliance with all regulations. Prior inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to resident care, including pressure ulcer treatment, medication administration errors, and failure to follow individualized care plans, as well as infection control and safety measures. Several complaint investigations were substantiated, involving issues such as inadequate pressure ulcer care, medication errors, and failure to prevent resident access to hazardous items despite care plans. Enforcement actions were imposed in 2016 and 2017 due to deficiencies related to pressure ulcers and immediate jeopardy from inadequate supervision, including denial of payment for new admissions, but these were resolved in subsequent inspections. The facility’s recent clean inspection suggests improvement following earlier citations and enforcement actions.
