Inspection Report Summary for The Bay at Belmont Health and Rehabilitation Center
The most recent inspection on December 15, 2025, identified deficiencies related to respecting a resident’s mask-wearing preference, maintaining a clean commode, and timely reporting of investigation results for alleged misappropriation of property. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving resident care, medication management, infection control, environmental cleanliness, and supervision, including prior issues with unsafe smoking practices, elopement, and medication diversion. Complaint investigations substantiated concerns about inadequate supervision after falls, privacy violations, and delays in pain management and medication administration, but fines or license actions were not listed in the available reports. The facility has had immediate jeopardy findings in the past related to elopement and smoking safety, both of which were resolved after corrective actions. Recent inspections suggest ongoing challenges with compliance, with some recurring themes but no clear sustained improvement trend.
