Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on August 28, 2025, found no deficiencies and confirmed the facility was in compliance with all regulations. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to staff reporting and prevention of verbal abuse, documentation and timely completion of assessments, emergency preparedness, and food safety practices. Notably, a substantiated complaint investigation in July 2025 identified verbal abuse by a staff member and delayed reporting of the incident, which the facility addressed through staff education and termination of the involved employee. Prior complaint investigations mostly resulted in substantiated findings related to abuse, medication management, and resident care documentation, but enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have made improvements over time, with recent inspections showing correction of previously cited deficiencies and no new noncompliance found.
