The most recent inspection on November 19, 2025, did not identify any deficiencies and focused on informing individuals about privacy practices. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to resident care, staffing, medication management, infection control, and life safety compliance. Complaint investigations substantiated issues with abuse reporting, incomplete investigations, and staffing shortages, though fines or enforcement actions were not listed in the available reports. Most complaints were substantiated, including failures to report abuse and maintain accurate medical records. The facility’s inspection history shows ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, but the latest report suggests some improvement in addressing prior concerns.
