The most recent inspection on August 21, 2025, found multiple deficiencies related to employee background checks, medication management, behavior documentation, and fall prevention. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues with behavior plans and resident assessments, as well as fire life safety and sanitation concerns such as missing inspections and improper use of electrical equipment.

Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows ongoing challenges with medication and behavior management alongside life safety compliance, with no clear improvement trend over time.
