Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating generally adequate compliance with regulations. However, some reports cited deficiencies, mainly related to medication management, resident care, and documentation, including a recent July 10, 2025, inspection that found multiple serious medication management issues posing immediate health and safety risks. A prior complaint investigation in July 2025 involved a resident’s fall and death, with further investigation ongoing but no enforcement actions listed. Earlier substantiated deficiencies included failure to provide timely access to medical records and lapses in resident care plans and supervision. The facility’s record shows some concerning isolated incidents but no fines, license suspensions, or enforcement actions noted in the available reports.
The visit was an unannounced Case Management inspection conducted to address deficiencies observed during a prior complaint visit.
