Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on September 9, 2025, identified deficiencies in both health and life safety areas, including food procurement, pest control, physician visits, tube feeding management, and emergency lighting. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of similar issues with care planning, resident rights, infection prevention, and multiple life safety code concerns, with some deficiencies corrected in follow-up surveys. Complaint investigations were unsubstantiated or resolved without enforcement actions, and no fines or license suspensions were listed in the available reports. Prior reports frequently cited issues with reporting to the national health safety network during Covid-19 surveys. The facility’s inspection history shows recurring themes in environmental safety and care documentation, with some improvement noted after corrective actions.
