Earlier inspections showed mostly compliance, with a substantiated complaint in November 2022 regarding employees residing in licensed resident rooms, which violated admission rules. Prior deficiencies mainly involved resident care documentation and regulatory compliance related to staff and facility operations. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license suspensions were listed in the available reports. The inspection history shows some recurring compliance challenges, particularly in documentation and regulatory adherence, without a clear pattern of improvement or worsening.
