Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on September 23, 2025, found that all previously cited deficiencies had been corrected. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to medication management, resident safety including neglect and elopement risks, incomplete negotiated service agreements, and emergency preparedness. Complaint investigations in recent years were mostly unsubstantiated, with one substantiated case in April 2024 involving verbal abuse and neglect by a staff member. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license suspensions were listed in the available reports, although the August 2025 inspection did note immediate jeopardy related to resident neglect and elopement risks that were later corrected. The facility’s record shows improvement over time, with the most recent inspection confirming resolution of prior issues.
