Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections found no deficiencies, with the facility generally clean, odor-free, and in good repair. Several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, including allegations of inadequate supervision and resident assaults. Some deficiencies were noted over time, mainly involving documentation issues such as missing signatures on service plans, late incident reporting, and minor maintenance needs like a fire door replacement. The most serious findings occurred in early 2023 and 2022, including immediate health and safety risks related to staffing, service plan updates, and medication administration, but these were addressed through follow-ups and plans of correction. The most recent report from September 5, 2025, had no deficiencies, indicating improvement in compliance.
