An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on August 18, 2020, found no deficiencies related to COVID-19 infection prevention and control. Earlier inspections from 2008 through 2020 were also generally free of deficiencies, except for a substantiated complaint investigation in April 2017 that identified multiple deficiencies across staff qualifications, training, medication management, safety, and housekeeping. This 2017 report included a finding of financial exploitation of a resident by staff and failure to submit a timely incident investigation report, but no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Most complaints investigated were unsubstantiated, and no immediate jeopardy findings or license actions appeared. The facility’s inspection history shows improvement with no deficiencies noted in recent years following the 2017 issues.
