Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on December 12, 2025, included deficiencies that resulted in a $1,000 fine, which has been paid in full. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of repeated deficiencies primarily related to updating resident service plans and caregiver documentation, with multiple enforcement actions and fines imposed over time. Complaint investigations occasionally found issues with service plans, assistance with activities of daily living, medication administration, and abuse reporting, while most complaints were unsubstantiated. Enforcement actions included fines ranging from $250 to $2,500, but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows ongoing challenges with documentation and service plan compliance, with no clear trend of sustained improvement.
