Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on April 11, 2025, identified one deficiency related to quality management and failure to submit documented reports to the governing authority. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily involving documentation, service plan updates, evacuation drills, and fall prevention training, with some enforcement actions resulting in fines totaling over $2,000, all of which have been paid.
