The most recent inspection on July 17, 2025, cited one Class 3 deficiency related to resident care rights and facility procedures. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily involving medication management, admissions processes, staffing, training, and recordkeeping. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated except for this latest finding and prior isolated issues with medication assistance and storage. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history suggests some improvement since multiple deficiencies were noted in earlier years, with more recent inspections mostly free of citations until the latest report.
