Inspection Reports for Winfield Senior Living Community
1320 WHEAT ROAD, KS, 67156-4704
Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on April 9, 2025, found the facility in compliance with all regulations and no deficiencies. Prior inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to resident care planning, medication management, infection control, and safety measures such as fall prevention and supervision. Complaint investigations substantiated issues including inadequate supervision leading to resident falls and elopement risks, as well as delayed or incomplete care plan revisions and medication administration errors. Enforcement actions included denial of payment for new Medicare and Medicaid admissions at times, and an immediate jeopardy finding in 2021 related to failure to initiate CPR, which was later resolved after corrective measures. The facility has demonstrated improvement over time, with recent inspections showing correction of previously cited deficiencies and no new noncompliance noted.
