Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
This facility’s inspection record is mixed, with mostly unsubstantiated complaints but some lapses in reporting and supervision. The most recent inspection on September 26, 2025 found no deficiencies after investigating a complaint about vehicle safety, which was unfounded. However, a June 17, 2025 visit cited one deficiency for failing to report a resident’s fracture incident within seven days, and an October 18, 2024 complaint investigation substantiated neglect related to inadequate supervision causing inappropriate resident contact.
