Most inspections before September 15, 2025, found no deficiencies, showing a generally clean record early on. However, starting mid-September 2025, several inspections identified serious issues including an immediate health risk from inadequate staffing and an unsanitary kitchen with pest infestations. Additional deficiencies involved missing staff training and health screening records, lack of an infection control plan, incomplete resident records, and unqualified staff administering injections. The most recent report from October 8, 2025, continued to cite deficiencies related to infection control, staff documentation, pest problems, and hospice care planning. While some complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, the facility has shown a pattern of environmental and staffing concerns that have not yet been fully resolved.
