Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
Mercy McMahon Terrace’s inspection record is mixed, with recent findings of immediate health and safety risks related to staff rough handling and unsecured medication access. The December 26, 2024 annual inspection cited one deficiency for an unlocked medication cart accessible to a resident who could not self-administer medications, while a substantiated complaint that same day found staff mishandling a resident and led to termination. Earlier investigations from 2021 through 2023 mostly found no deficiencies or unsubstantiated complaints, though prior substantiated abuse and mask violations resulted in penalties and staff training.
