Inspection Report Summary for Westfield Quality Care of Aurora
The most recent inspection on April 15, 2024, identified deficiencies related to failure to calibrate glucometers prior to use, resulting in probation and a prohibition on admitting new residents until compliance is demonstrated. Earlier inspections showed a mixed history with multiple deficiencies primarily involving resident care issues such as pressure sore prevention, care planning, medication administration, infection control, and safety concerns, including fire safety and environmental maintenance. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, though some substantiated findings involved failure to revise care plans after falls and delayed physician notification for pain management. Enforcement actions included probation periods and fines, notably a 90-day probation in 2019 and a daily fine starting in 2012 until compliance was achieved; no license suspensions or revocations were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection record shows ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, with recent enforcement indicating persistent issues despite some periods of improvement.
