$132,561 in fines

Families have filed multiple complaints resulting in serious findings including inadequate protection from abuse and neglect, with the most recent complaint citing safety hazards in November 2023. The facility shows persistent problems across surveys in care planning, medication management, and fire safety systems. While most issues have correction dates, the pattern of recurring deficiencies in fundamental care areas and the complaint-triggered abuse protection violations suggest ongoing quality concerns that families should carefully evaluate.
