Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on June 24, 2025, found no deficiencies related to the complaint investigated. Prior inspections showed a mixed pattern with several citations mainly involving Life Safety Code violations, resident care issues, medication management, and documentation. Earlier complaints substantiated deficiencies related to resident supervision, wound care, medication errors, and misappropriation of property, but enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports.
