1 complaint-triggered findings

This facility shows a mixed record with one complaint-triggered deficiency regarding abuse and neglect prevention policies, plus a major 2025 survey revealing 14 additional deficiencies. The most recurring issues involve fire safety systems, medication management, and building safety infrastructure including exits and electrical systems. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the volume and scope of recent findings—spanning from basic safety infrastructure to clinical care areas like wound care and infection control—suggest significant operational challenges that families should carefully evaluate.
