The largest survey by violations was the complaint survey issued on February 28, 2025, which identified 15 violations. This survey highlighted deficiencies across several regulatory categories, including general requirements (Regulation 402.4(b)(1)), resident services (Regulation 488.7(d)(1)(i‑iii), (d)(3), and (d)(6)), food service (Regulation 488.8(b)(4)), personnel (Regulation 488.9(f)), records and reports (Regulation 488.10(c)(1)), environmental standards (Regulation 488.11(c), (d)(1), (g)(2), and (g)(6)), disaster and emergency procedures (Regulation 488.12(c)(1‑10), (h), and (i)), and medication management (Regulation 1001.10(l)(2)).

A second survey, issued on January 28, 2025, identified a single violation under Regulation 485.11(b) related to records and reports, also pending review. All violations from both surveys are currently under the Inspection Review Process and have not yet resulted in enforcement action.

Enforcement actions from August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2025 show that there have been no enforcement actions against the operator of this facility during this reporting period.
