1 complaint-triggered

This facility shows a concerning pattern of recurring fire safety and building maintenance issues across multiple surveys, with problems in sprinkler systems, fire-resistant construction, and electrical systems appearing repeatedly from 2023 through 2025. The facility has also had deficiencies in accident prevention and care planning, including one complaint-triggered issue where families reported safety concerns. While all violations have correction dates, the persistence of fire safety problems across surveys suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that families should inquire about during visits.
