The most recent inspection on December 26, 2025, included enforcement action resulting in a $250 fine that was paid in full. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to caregiver qualifications, documentation (including residency agreements and medication records), and compliance with policies and procedures. Several enforcement actions were issued over time, including fines ranging from $250 to $1,750, but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings were listed in the available reports. Complaint investigations were mostly substantiated, with issues such as failure to report suspected abuse and inadequate emergency responder documentation noted, while some complaints were found unsubstantiated. The facility’s record shows ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, though enforcement actions have been resolved and fines paid, indicating some response to corrective measures.
