Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections found no deficiencies, with the facility generally maintaining compliance with safety, infection control, and medication management standards. The most recent report from October 20, 2025, was perfect with no deficiencies cited. Earlier, on October 17, 2024, a few minor technical issues were noted involving outdated physician reports, staff first aid certifications, and medication reconciliation in the memory care unit, but these were isolated and not severe. Several complaint investigations over the years were unsubstantiated, including allegations about medication errors, supervision, and resident assessments. Overall, the facility appears to have improved since those minor findings, with recent inspections showing no deficiencies.

Complaint Investigation
Census: 298 Capacity: 350 Deficiencies: 0 Date: Jun 11, 2021

Visit Reason
