Most inspections at this facility found no deficiencies, with several reports showing full compliance and proper safety measures. However, some inspections identified issues primarily related to resident care documentation, staff training, and room assignments for non-ambulatory residents. The most serious events occurred in early 2025, including immediate risk citations for inadequate supervision, lack of a proper signal system, and a $500 fine following a resident’s fall and death. The latest report from October 22, 2025, noted a deficiency for building alterations made without a required permit, which posed a potential risk but was less severe than earlier findings. Several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, and while some issues persist, recent reports suggest some improvement in compliance over time.
A case management visit was conducted to review facility compliance, discuss outstanding issues including building alterations without permits, administrator hiring status, and annual fee payments.
Findings
A deficiency was noted due to alterations made without a required building permit. Other issues discussed included maintaining and updating care plans and training for resident conditions.
