Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections found no deficiencies, with several annual and case management visits confirming the facility was clean, in good repair, and compliant with safety regulations. However, some complaint investigations substantiated issues related primarily to medication management, resident rights violations such as unauthorized restraints and coercion, and inadequate supervision, including a $500 civil penalty issued in December 2023 for residents leaving unsupervised. The most recent report from September 30, 2025, was a follow-up visit triggered by a complaint about aggressive handling of residents; it found no new deficiencies but led to staff retraining and a referral for further oversight. Earlier reports showed problems with medication errors, improper restraint use, and staff clearance issues, but corrective actions and training were implemented over time. Several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating some allegations lacked evidence.
