Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on October 7, 2025, found no deficiencies. Earlier inspections generally did not identify violations, with the exception of a substantiated complaint in March 2024 where inspectors cited deficiencies related to inadequate oversight and protective care for a resident who eloped and was hospitalized with injuries. The main issues involved failure to prevent elopement, lack of effective safety devices, and insufficient resident monitoring and documentation. Complaint investigations since then have been unsubstantiated, and no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows improvement following the March 2024 findings, with no further deficiencies noted in subsequent inspections.
