Inspection Report Summary for Scottsdale Village Square

The most recent inspection on December 25, 2025, included enforcement action resulting in a $3,000 fine that has been fully paid. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to staff training, medication administration, service plan documentation, and administration oversight, with multiple fines imposed over time. Complaint investigations mostly found deficiencies involving personnel qualifications, service plans, and medication services, while many complaints were unsubstantiated. Enforcement actions were frequent and included fines ranging from $250 to $3,000, but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, with repeated citations over multiple inspections and no clear trend of sustained improvement.
