Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on October 1, 2025, identified deficiencies related to incomplete transfer notifications and discharge assessment documentation. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues involving resident protection from abuse, care planning, notification of condition changes, and infection control, including two complaint investigations that found immediate jeopardy related to abuse and fall prevention. Inspectors cited failures to protect residents from physical and sexual abuse, inadequate care planning for residents with behavioral needs, and lapses in timely reporting and documentation. Complaint investigations included substantiated findings of abuse resulting in actual harm and delayed reporting, with immediate jeopardy removed after corrective actions; enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history indicates ongoing challenges with resident safety and care coordination, with some corrective steps taken but no clear sustained improvement trend.
