The most recent inspection on December 17, 2025, identified deficiencies related to informed consent for psychoactive medication, notification of resident condition changes, care planning for incontinence, blood glucose monitoring, fall supervision, and trauma-informed care assessments. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues including medication administration errors, inadequate supervision leading to resident harm, food service sanitation problems, and infection control deficiencies. Complaint investigations substantiated a failure to provide adequate supervision that resulted in a resident injury, with corrective actions taken by the facility. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The inspection history indicates ongoing challenges in resident care and supervision, with no clear improvement trend over time.
