Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on September 8, 2025, found no deficiencies during an unannounced complaint investigation. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to resident rights, care planning, medication administration, infection control, and privacy, with some issues resulting in harm and hospitalization. A substantiated complaint in January 2025 cited failures to report and investigate an allegation of abuse appropriately, but no enforcement actions or fines were listed in the available reports. Most complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, and follow-up surveys in mid-2024 found the facility in substantial compliance with no deficiencies. The inspection history indicates some improvement over time, with recent surveys showing fewer or no deficiencies compared to prior reports.
