Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
Glacier Hills has recurring issues across all three surveys, particularly with fire safety systems, resident rights, and food service operations. The facility shows persistent problems with smoke detection systems, sprinkler maintenance, and accommodating resident preferences, with some deficiencies recurring across multiple inspections. One complaint was filed by families regarding daily care assistance. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated violations in key safety and care areas warrants careful evaluation during any visit.
