Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on January 14, 2024, found no deficiencies at the facility. Earlier inspections showed a generally compliant record with isolated issues, including a July 17, 2023, resurvey that cited deficiencies related to labeling over-the-counter medications with residents’ full names and tuberculosis testing for new staff. Complaint investigations mostly resulted in unsubstantiated findings, though the July 2023 inspection addressed multiple complaints tied to these medication and TB testing issues. There were no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have corrected previous deficiencies promptly, showing improvement in regulatory compliance over time.
