Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on September 24, 2025, found no deficiencies but noted that no residents had been admitted, so compliance with quality of care could not be determined. Earlier inspections showed similar findings, with the April 22, 2025, report citing non-compliance due to the absence of admitted residents, which prevented evaluation of care standards. Prior to that, the original licensing inspection on September 4, 2024, found the facility in substantial compliance with licensing requirements and recommended issuing a temporary license. No complaint investigations were reported in the available records. The inspection history reflects that the facility has not yet admitted residents, so care-related compliance remains unassessed.
