Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on September 5, 2024, involved a licensing update to reduce the facility’s licensed bed capacity from 94 to 85 and did not include any deficiencies. Earlier inspections were generally compliant, with the exception of a March 30, 2023 renewal inspection that cited a deficiency for missing dishwasher sanitization records over three months. Prior issues mainly related to kitchen and dietary documentation, while other inspections focused on licensing capacity adjustments without noted compliance concerns. Complaint investigations were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have addressed previous deficiencies, as more recent inspections show no citations.
