What this means for your family
Gideon Care Center is highly regarded for its clean environment and compassionate care, particularly in its secured unit. However, because a large number of recent reviews lack written details, we recommend scheduling an in-person tour to observe staff interactions and ask about their training programs regarding professional conduct.

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
Gideon Care Center shows recurring deficiencies across three surveys, with most issues corrected after identification. The facility has persistent problems with fire safety systems (smoke barriers, sprinkler maintenance, electrical systems), resident rights (safe environment, treatment choices), and medication management (error rates, proper labeling, dosage reviews). While all deficiencies were reportedly corrected, the pattern of repeated fire safety violations and broad care planning issues suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining consistent standards.
