Inspection Report Summary for Smoky Hill Rehabilitation Center
The most recent inspection on July 6, 2022, found the facility in compliance with all regulations and no deficiencies were cited. Prior inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to resident care, including medication management, supervision to prevent elopement, bathing and hygiene, nutritional services, and safe transfer techniques. Several complaint investigations were substantiated, including incidents involving medication errors that caused harm, failure to prevent resident elopement, and abuse or neglect concerns, some resulting in immediate jeopardy findings and enforcement actions such as denial of payment for new admissions. Enforcement remedies and fines were noted in earlier years, but no recent enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have made improvements over time, with multiple revisit surveys confirming correction of prior deficiencies and the most recent inspections showing compliance.
