Deficiencies indicate regulatory issues. A higher number implies the facility had several areas requiring improvement.
Louisiana average: 32 deficiencies
The most recent inspection on August 20, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies related to medication self-administration assessments, care plan updates after falls, hazardous chemical security, medication storage, food safety, confidentiality of medical records, and pest control in the kitchen. Earlier inspections also cited issues with resident care planning, medication errors, infection control, staff training, and resident rights, with several complaint investigations substantiating concerns such as psychosocial abuse and inadequate supervision to prevent falls. Inspectors frequently noted problems with medication management, care plan implementation, environmental safety, and food handling across reports. Complaint investigations were mostly substantiated, including a case of psychosocial abuse leading to staff termination, but no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The inspection history shows ongoing challenges with compliance in several areas without clear improvement over time.
