21 deficiencies

Utah average: 14 deficiencies

Inspection Report Summary for Sandstone Brigham City

The most recent inspection on December 3, 2025, identified a deficiency related to neglect when a resident was left in a wet brief for about eight hours, causing skin injury. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues including failure to maintain a clean environment, inadequate supervision, incomplete care plans, and medication management problems. A notable prior complaint investigation in April 2024 found immediate jeopardy due to a sexual abuse incident involving a staff member and a resident, which was addressed with staff separation and police involvement. Most complaint investigations were substantiated, leading to staff suspensions and terminations, but enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s deficiencies have persisted over time with some corrective actions taken, but recent findings indicate ongoing challenges in resident care and supervision.
