Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, including the most recent one on November 14, 2024, which found no issues with medical care, staffing, or fees. The facility had isolated deficiencies in the past, such as incomplete resident physician reports noted on August 28, 2023, and a failure to reappraise a resident’s wound in late 2022, both considered risks but without enforcement actions or fines listed. Earlier annual inspections and complaint investigations consistently showed compliance with infection control, safety, and care standards. The overall trend suggests improvement, with the latest reports showing no deficiencies after previous isolated issues. There were no license suspensions, fines, or severe enforcement actions reported in the available records.
