Most inspections found no deficiencies, and the majority of complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating generally good compliance with regulations. The most recent report from August 29, 2025, was clean with no deficiencies cited. Earlier reports identified a few isolated issues, including a substantiated deficiency in May 2025 for water temperatures being too low in resident rooms, which posed a health and safety risk, and a failure to follow proper eviction procedures found in late 2023 and early 2025 complaint investigations. There were no fines, license suspensions, or immediate jeopardy findings listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows improvement over time, with recent inspections free of deficiencies after some earlier minor compliance concerns.
