Inspection Report Summary for Windmill Manor

The most recent inspection on December 30, 2025, identified deficiencies related to medication availability and administration, resulting in missed doses of critical antirejection medications. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving medication management, resident safety including supervision and use of assistive devices, and food safety practices. Several complaint investigations were substantiated, including issues with care plan implementation, timely assessments, and resident rights, but enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. Prior inspections also noted failures in reporting major injuries and maintaining quality assurance programs. The facility has shown some correction of deficiencies on re-inspections, but recent findings indicate ongoing challenges in medication administration and resident safety.
