Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on July 7, 2025, identified one deficiency related to maintaining a safe, clean, comfortable, and homelike environment. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving resident care aspects such as ADL assistance, medication management, infection control, nursing staff sufficiency, and quality of care. Complaint investigations did not reveal any substantiated complaints, and no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Prior citations also included some life safety code issues, all of which were corrected promptly.
