Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on November 19, 2025, found the facility in compliance with all regulations and no new deficiencies. Prior inspections showed some recurring issues with fully developing and updating negotiated service agreements, coordinating health care services related to bed rail use, and medication labeling. Earlier complaint investigations included one substantiated case involving medication room security, but most complaints were unsubstantiated. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have addressed prior deficiencies effectively, as indicated by the clean results in the latest inspection.
