Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating that many concerns raised did not have sufficient evidence. However, some substantiated complaints identified issues primarily with resident care and supervision, staff training, and timely reporting of incidents. Notably, a serious deficiency was cited in April 2024 for failure to provide timely medical attention after multiple falls resulting in hospitalization, and in June 2023 for improper eviction procedures. The facility also had repeated findings related to inadequate staff training, especially regarding dementia care, and occasional lapses in maintaining a clean and safe environment or operable call systems. The most recent report from October 15, 2025, was an administrative conference with no deficiencies cited, suggesting some improvement in compliance.
The visit was an office type inspection involving an Informal Conference to discuss administrative organization and the Department's consultation role.
Findings
The report documents discussions held during the Informal Conference with facility and Department representatives, agreements on providing updated administrative documents by October 20, 2025, and an exit interview was conducted. No specific deficiencies or violations are detailed in this report.
The inspection was an unannounced complaint investigation visit triggered by a complaint received on May 31, 2024, alleging that facility management staff is never available, food service is inadequate, and the facility failed to safeguard residents' property.
