Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on September 29, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies related to cleanliness, call bell system functionality, resident care, medication administration, and resident rights. Earlier inspections showed similar issues, including unclean floors, a non-functional call bell system, medication errors, and inadequate care plan updates, with one prior investigation noting a resident’s pressure wound that led to hospitalization and death. Inspectors cited recurring problems with pest control, medication management, personal care, and failure to ensure resident safety and privacy. Complaint investigations were substantiated, focusing on abuse allegations, medication errors, and inadequate supervision, with no enforcement actions or fines listed in the available reports. The pattern of findings suggests ongoing challenges without clear improvement over time.
