Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on June 12, 2025, found no deficiencies during the recertification and complaint investigation. Earlier inspections showed a mix of findings, including issues with staff training, service plan accuracy, and timely nurse reviews. Deficiencies often involved incomplete or outdated service plans, insufficient staff training on dependent adult abuse and medication administration, and delays in required tenant evaluations. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for one in January 2024, which confirmed that a tenant’s service plan did not adequately address her care needs. The facility appears to have improved over time, with the latest inspection showing compliance after previous citations.
