Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History

This facility has a concerning pattern of recurring deficiencies across multiple surveys, with one complaint-triggered investigation involving resident abuse protection in 2023. The most frequent problem areas include fire safety systems, electrical safety, and medication management, with many issues persisting across surveys from 2021 to 2025. While the facility corrects violations when cited, the repeated nature of safety deficiencies suggests ongoing operational challenges that families should carefully consider.
