The most recent inspection on March 27, 2025, found no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a mixed pattern, with some complaint investigations identifying violations related to Alzheimer’s special care units, infection control, client safety during mechanical lifts, and medication documentation.

No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports.
