Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, reflecting generally good compliance with regulations. The most recent report from August 20, 2025, was clean with no deficiencies observed. Earlier reports identified some issues including substantiated neglect related to delayed medical attention, resident abuse by staff resulting in bruising, failure to report incidents timely, and a medication administration error; these were isolated and addressed with staff termination or corrective actions. There was also a substantiated deficiency during a COVID-19 outbreak in 2022 related to improper mask use by staff. Overall, the facility’s record shows improvement over time, with recent inspections consistently free of deficiencies.
An unannounced required annual inspection was conducted to evaluate compliance with licensing requirements and facility conditions.
