The most recent inspection on July 1, 2025, found no deficiencies related to the complaint investigated. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of mostly no deficiencies, with occasional citations primarily involving life safety code compliance and resident care issues such as catheter management and dietary errors. Inspectors cited recurring issues with fire safety system maintenance, fire drill documentation, and some care plan and environmental concerns in prior reports. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated, with one substantiated complaint in early 2024 related to failure to provide a physician-ordered therapeutic diet. The facility appears to have addressed many prior deficiencies, as recent inspections have not identified new issues.
