Inspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on October 8, 2024, found no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a mixed pattern, with some citations related to resident oversight, reporting, staffing levels, and resident rights, including substantiated complaints involving elopement, failure to report an unanticipated death, insufficient staffing, and a confirmed incident of sexual abuse between residents. Prior reports also noted issues with personnel files, medication management, and abuse prevention, with staff terminations following substantiated abuse findings. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for these notable cases, and no fines or license actions were listed in the available reports.
