Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections found some deficiencies, though several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated.

Complaint investigations in March and July 2025 found no evidence to support allegations of medication mismanagement. The facility’s record shows some ongoing challenges with documentation and safety protocols, with no clear pattern of improvement or decline.
