Inspection Report Summary for The Pillars of Biloxi
The most recent inspection on October 1, 2025, found the facility to be in compliance with Medicare, Medicaid, and state licensure requirements, with no deficiencies cited. Prior inspections showed a mixed history, including a significant annual survey in August 2025 that cited deficiencies related to staffing, residents’ rights, activities of daily living (ADL) care, food safety, infection control, medication management, and grievance resolution. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, except for a substantiated issue with the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications and a prior substantiated Immediate Jeopardy related to resident elopement and verbal abuse, both of which were corrected promptly. Enforcement actions included termination of responsible staff and removal of Immediate Jeopardy status after corrective measures; fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have improved recently, with follow-up surveys confirming compliance after earlier deficiencies.
