Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on January 30, 2025, found no deficiencies related to the complaint investigated. Earlier inspections showed a mostly compliant pattern, with one substantiated complaint in August 2024 involving a delayed report to the Indiana Department of Health about unexplained bruising, which did not result in resident harm. Prior reports cited issues with notification after falls, resident supervision, staff training, and documentation, but no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Most complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, and the facility corrected earlier cited deficiencies by April 2024. The record indicates improvement over time, with recent inspections showing compliance with regulations.
