Inspection Report Summary for Sherwood Oaks

The most recent inspection on January 14, 2025, found no deficiencies following a complaint and incident investigation. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related primarily to resident abuse reporting and prevention, staff training and supervision, and safety concerns such as unsecured hazardous materials and medication management. A December 5, 2024 follow-up inspection cited multiple deficiencies connected to abuse reporting and resident safety, which led to staff suspension and termination, along with corrective education and monitoring. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for the December 2024 case involving resident abuse that triggered enforcement actions. The facility’s inspection history shows some improvement in addressing issues, but recent findings indicate ongoing challenges with abuse prevention and compliance.
