Inspection Report Summary for Social Circle Nsg & Rehab Ctr

The most recent inspection on May 29, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies including medication cart security, glucometer disinfection, enteral feeding administration, documentation of personal care, call light functionality, and maintenance of flooring to preserve a home-like environment. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of similar issues related to medication management, infection control, resident care documentation, and environmental maintenance, with no fines or license actions listed in the available reports. A complaint investigation conducted concurrently with the latest survey was substantiated, confirming these deficiencies but no immediate jeopardy findings or enforcement actions were noted. Prior complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, except for a substantiated case in November 2022 involving failure to protect residents from abuse, which was addressed in subsequent surveys. The facility’s inspection history shows recurring issues in care and environment maintenance without clear improvement in recent surveys.
