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 May 9, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies including incomplete background checks, delayed fall notifications, incomplete nursing assessments, missing medication reviews, and insufficient staff certifications. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues related to resident care, medication administration, staffing shortages, and documentation lapses, with prior reports also noting problems in emergency response, incident investigations, and life safety compliance. Complaint investigations documented substantiated concerns about inadequate emergency training, medication errors, and unmet resident needs, although no enforcement actions or fines were listed in the available reports. The facility has not demonstrated consistent correction of these deficiencies over time, with recurring themes of incomplete assessments, staffing challenges, and failure to meet regulatory notification requirements. There is no clear trend of improvement, as similar issues have persisted across multiple inspections.
