The most recent inspection on September 12, 2025, found no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a mix of results, with several complaint investigations over the years resulting in no violations, but some prior reports cited deficiencies related to resident care, communication with families, and safety measures. Inspectors noted issues such as failure to notify representatives about changes in condition, inadequate care for a resident’s wound, and insufficient safety device functioning to prevent a cognitively impaired resident from leaving the facility unsupervised. There were no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions listed in the available reports, and most complaint investigations were unsubstantiated. The inspection history suggests improvement over time, with recent inspections consistently free of deficiencies.
