Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on April 1, 2025, identified multiple Level 2 deficiencies related to quality of care and life safety code, all of which were corrected by May 2025. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of similar issues, including care planning, nursing staff competence, infection control, and reporting to the national health safety network, with some deficiencies corrected and others uncorrected over time. Inspectors frequently cited problems with care quality, resident rights, environmental safety, and compliance with reporting requirements. Complaint investigations were unsubstantiated or not noted, and no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows ongoing attention to correcting deficiencies, though some reporting issues persisted across multiple inspections.
