Inspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on March 31, 2017, found that previously cited deficiencies related to food storage and sanitation had been corrected. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily involving food safety and sanitary conditions in the kitchen, as well as issues with resident care documentation, medication management, and infection control. Complaint investigations substantiated failures in safe transfer procedures, resident dignity, incident reporting, and care plan revisions, with enforcement actions including denial of payment for new admissions at times. Fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have addressed many prior deficiencies through plans of correction and follow-up visits, indicating some improvement over time.
