Inspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on June 18, 2025, found no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to staffing issues, including inadequate nurse presence in the memory care unit and insufficient trained caregiver coverage, as well as failures in incident reporting and infection control practices. Complaint investigations mostly resulted in unsubstantiated findings, except for a citation regarding failure to report a serious incident within 24 hours and some staffing and supervision concerns. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The trend suggests improvement over time, with the most recent inspections showing no deficiencies after a period of multiple citations.
