Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on August 13, 2025, found deficiencies related to the absence of a full-time licensed Administrator, incomplete personnel and resident files, and medication administration not following physician orders. Earlier inspections were mostly free of deficiencies, with no rule violations cited in multiple complaint investigations throughout 2023 and 2025. Prior deficiencies involved issues with resident care, staff conduct, and documentation, including substantiated cases of physical abuse and improper medication administration in 2021. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated except for those substantiated cases in 2021 involving staff misconduct and abuse. The inspection history shows a pattern of improvement after earlier care and staffing issues, though recent administrative and documentation deficiencies indicate some ongoing challenges.
