Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on October 8, 2025, identified a technical infraction related to staffing levels and resident safety during evacuation. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving service plan updates, fall prevention, medication administration, employee orientation, training, and background checks. Complaint investigations included a substantiated case in October 2024 where failures in fall prevention and medication administration contributed to a resident’s injury and death. Most other complaints were either found compliant or did not have substantiation status clearly stated, and enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to be addressing these issues with corrective actions, but deficiencies have persisted across multiple areas over time.
