The most recent inspection on April 4, 2025, found no deficiencies related to the complaints investigated, and the facility was in compliance with applicable regulations. Earlier inspections showed a mix of findings, including a substantiated complaint in July 2024 involving neglect due to inadequate supervision that allowed a resident to leave the facility unsupervised, as well as several medication management and infection control deficiencies cited in June 2024. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for the one neglect case, and no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Prior follow-up visits indicated that previously identified issues were corrected. The inspection history shows some past challenges primarily around resident supervision and medication practices, but recent visits reflect compliance and correction of earlier deficiencies.
