Near state avg (11.3)
1 complaint-triggered

This facility has had recurring issues across three surveys, with families filing at least one complaint that triggered an inspection for staff training problems. The most persistent concerns involve fire safety systems and building infrastructure, respiratory care for residents, and food safety in the kitchen. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated violations in fire safety and electrical systems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that families should discuss during visits.
