Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
Gordon Countryside Care has recurring issues across multiple surveys in food safety, accident prevention, and medication management. All deficiencies show correction dates, but food safety problems persisted across three separate surveys (2023-2025), suggesting ongoing challenges. One complaint was filed by a family regarding failure to properly notify them of resident incidents. While the facility addresses violations when cited, the pattern of repeat issues in critical care areas warrants careful consideration during visits.
