Inspection Report Summary for Signature Healthcare of Bowling Green

The most recent inspection on September 5, 2025, identified deficiencies related to resident privacy and infection control, including failure to keep medical records confidential and lapses in PPE use and hand hygiene. Earlier inspections showed a mixed record, with prior issues involving resident assessment accuracy and notification of Medicare/Medicaid coverage in June 2024, as well as multiple deficiencies in resident care, supervision, documentation, and food safety noted in 2019. Inspectors cited main themes around confidentiality, infection prevention, resident assessment accuracy, and care planning. There were no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions listed in the available reports, and no substantiated complaint investigations were noted. The pattern suggests some ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, particularly in infection control and documentation, with no clear trend of improvement or worsening over time.
