Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on July 21, 2016, found no deficiencies, confirming that previously cited issues had been corrected. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to resident care, including skin condition assessments, fall investigations, infection control, medication management, and environmental safety such as secure handrails. A substantiated complaint investigation in August 2015 identified immediate jeopardy due to inadequate bathing care and failure to prevent resident elopement, which was later abated through corrective actions. Fines, license suspensions, or other enforcement actions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history indicates improvement over time, with more recent surveys showing resolution of prior deficiencies.
