Inspection Report Summary for Sunrise of Fairfax

The most recent inspection on August 28, 2025, found no deficiencies during a monitoring visit following a self-reported allegation. Earlier inspections showed a mixed record, with several substantiated complaints related mainly to medication management, resident care documentation, and supervision issues. Inspectors cited problems such as unlocked medication storage, incomplete medication administration records, missed medication doses, and failure to ensure resident rights training for staff. Some complaint investigations were substantiated, including one involving failure to report a major incident and another related to medication timing, while most complaints were unsubstantiated. The facility’s recent clean inspections suggest some improvement after earlier findings of non-compliance in resident care and medication management.
