Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on July 16, 2025, found Schooner Estates Residential Care to be in substantial compliance following a complaint investigation. However, the prior biennial survey on June 24, 2025, identified deficiencies related to beds not being located in a distinct part of the facility and the presence of a prohibited extension cord in a resident room. Earlier inspections from 2023 and 2024 showed the facility in substantial compliance without noted deficiencies. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The pattern suggests mostly compliance with a recent emergence of safety and regulatory issues that were not present in earlier inspections.
