Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections found no deficiencies, with several complaint investigations resulting in unsubstantiated allegations related to resident care, staff training, and communication. However, some deficiencies were cited in 2025, including serious issues such as failure to notify licensing of an alleged abuse incident in a timely manner and inadequate documentation and policy for resident checks, both posing immediate health and safety risks. The facility also faced substantiated findings for infection control lapses during a COVID outbreak in late 2023. The most recent report from October 22, 2025, identified a deficiency involving undocumented resident checks, indicating ongoing challenges in supervision and documentation. While some reports show improvement in areas like medication management and incident reporting, the facility has had intermittent serious concerns primarily related to resident safety and abuse reporting.
