This facility has accumulated 47 deficiencies across three recent surveys, primarily involving building safety systems and resident rights issues. The most recurring problems are electrical and fire safety systems (including generators, sprinkler systems, and emergency lighting), resident rights protections (grievance procedures, privacy, and discharge notifications), and infection control programs. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated issues with building safety infrastructure and the same infection control problems appearing in all three surveys suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges that families should consider.
