Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
Gulf Pointe Plaza shows recurring issues with fire safety systems and medication management across multiple surveys, with families filing complaint reports that triggered some inspections. The facility has persistent problems maintaining sprinkler systems (appearing in three separate surveys from 2022-2024) and proper drug labeling procedures. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated fire safety violations and medication handling issues, combined with resident complaints about pharmacy services and infection control, suggests ongoing operational challenges that families should carefully consider.
