Inspection Report Summary for The Ivy at Wellington

Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating that many concerns raised were not supported by evidence. The facility’s annual inspection on June 18, 2025, was clean with no deficiencies noted. However, earlier complaint investigations in January 2025 substantiated medication management issues, including administering unauthorized medications and failing to provide prescribed medications, which posed health risks and were not properly reported. These medication-related deficiencies represent the most serious findings in the record, but more recent inspections show improvement with no new deficiencies reported. Other complaints about supervision, food quality, infection control, and resident care were investigated and found unsubstantiated or unfounded.
