Inspection Report Summary for Villa Lorena Senior Living

Most inspections found no deficiencies, including the most recent reports from July 11, 2025, which were both complaint investigations with no substantiated violations. Earlier investigations identified several deficiencies related mainly to resident safety, personal rights, infection control, and communication issues. Notable findings included staff handling a resident roughly causing bruises, falsification of COVID-19 test documents, failure to follow COVID-19 guidance, mold in the facility, and delays in incident reporting and record updates. While some complaints were substantiated, many others were unsubstantiated, and the facility has taken corrective actions such as staff termination and training. The pattern shows improvement over time, with the latest inspections free of deficiencies after addressing prior issues.
