2deficiencies
Near state avg (3.9)

Sunset Manor has had 17 deficiencies across three surveys, with all violations reportedly corrected by the facility. The most recurring issues involve fire safety systems (smoke barriers, sprinkler systems), nutrition and dietary services (menu planning, food storage, waste disposal), and building safety (electrical systems, corridor access). While deficiencies span multiple areas, the pattern suggests facility management addresses cited problems, though some fire safety and dietary issues have reoccurred across different survey years.
