Inspection Report Summary for Sunrise of Lincoln Park

The most recent inspection on October 23, 2025, identified deficiencies related to incomplete documentation of emergency preparedness drills, including the time drills were conducted, resident participation, and assistance provided. Earlier inspections and complaint investigations were mostly clear, with a complaint investigation on April 1, 2025, finding reported incidents unsubstantiated and confirming compliance with relevant regulations. Prior reports and plans of correction addressed issues with personnel qualifications, training, and service plan reviews. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history shows some recurring documentation and training issues, but complaint investigations have not substantiated significant regulatory concerns.
