Inspection Report Summary for The Waters of Tipton Skilled Nursing Facility
The most recent inspection on June 16, 2025, identified deficiencies related to failure to notify a physician of a resident injury and failure to ensure resident safety during transfer. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving emergency preparedness, life safety code compliance, resident care including supervision and assistance, medication management, and infection control. Several complaint investigations were substantiated, including cases involving resident falls, delayed medical assessments, and issues with dignity and respect, but fines or enforcement actions were not listed in the available reports. Most complaints without deficiencies were found unsubstantiated, and the facility has taken corrective actions such as staff training and policy updates. The inspection history shows ongoing challenges with resident safety and care processes, with some improvements noted in life safety compliance after re-inspections.
