Ohio average: 29 deficiencies
The most recent inspection on December 4, 2024, identified deficiencies related to inadequate supervision that led to an unauthorized leave resulting in a resident’s death and failure to monitor urinary function after catheter removal. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues with resident supervision, care planning, medication management, and safety, including previous immediate jeopardy findings linked to elopement and neglect resulting in resident harm or death. Complaint investigations substantiated failures in supervision, involuntary seclusion, medication administration, and maintenance of safe environments, but enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. Most complaints were substantiated, including several involving resident harm and immediate jeopardy, with corrective actions implemented after each. The inspection history indicates ongoing challenges with resident supervision and care, with some corrective efforts noted but recent serious outcomes suggesting these issues have not yet been fully resolved.
