Inspection Reports for Ossian Health Care and Rehabilitation Center
215 DAVIS RD, OSSIAN, IN, 46777
Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on June 3, 2025, identified several deficiencies related to Life Safety Code requirements, including issues with sprinkler system testing, smoke barrier construction, and fire door inspections. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of Life Safety Code and emergency preparedness deficiencies, as well as some care-related issues such as incomplete care planning and accident risk interventions. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, though some substantiated complaints involved medication security, mental abuse, and care planning deficiencies; enforcement actions included staff suspension and termination but no fines or license suspensions were listed in the available reports. The facility has taken corrective actions and implemented monitoring plans following these findings. The inspection history shows ongoing challenges primarily with fire safety compliance and care documentation, with some improvements noted in emergency preparedness and complaint resolution over time.
