Complaint Investigation
Census: 41
Capacity: 42
Citations: 0
Date: Jun 5, 2025
Visit Reason
An unannounced complaint investigation was conducted in response to allegations received on 2025-01-24 regarding neglect and failure to seek timely medical attention for a resident.
Complaint Details
The complaint alleged that facility staff's neglect and lack of care led to a resident's death and failure to seek timely medical attention for a resident admitted with sepsis. The investigation concluded the allegations were unsubstantiated due to insufficient evidence.
Findings
The investigation found that although the allegations may have occurred or be valid, there was not a preponderance of evidence to substantiate them. The resident's condition could progress rapidly without obvious signs, and the family's decision for comfort care was deemed appropriate. Therefore, the allegations were unsubstantiated.

Complaint Investigation
Census: 39
Capacity: 42
Citations: 0
Date: Oct 21, 2024
Visit Reason
An unannounced complaint investigation visit was conducted in response to a complaint received on 2024-07-25 alleging that facility staff did not seek medical attention for a resident in a timely manner and that staff yelled at a resident in care.
Complaint Details
The complaint allegations were unsubstantiated due to lack of preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations occurred.
Findings
The investigation included interviews and document reviews. Medical attention was sought when alerted by the resident's family, and staff were observed speaking loudly but not angrily to residents. The allegations could not be proven or disproven due to conflicting information and were therefore unsubstantiated.
