Inspection Report Summary for Signature HealthCARE of Savannah
The most recent inspection on July 2, 2025, found the facility in substantial compliance with the Emergency Preparedness Program and confirmed correction of all previously cited deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to resident care, including issues with dignity, care planning, infection control, and oxygen therapy, as well as life safety concerns such as fire safety equipment maintenance and door functionality. Several complaint investigations were substantiated, notably one involving inadequate supervision and care planning that led to a resident eloping unnoticed for over an hour. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility has demonstrated improvement over time by correcting cited deficiencies in follow-up and revisit surveys.
