Key Review Excerpts
“We had explored the other larger options of assisted living and did not feel comfortable with the staff/client ratio. This aspect was critical in our decision to use Advanced and I'm very glad we did.”
“She was a tough placement because she had some pretty complex nursing care needs. Most assisted living facilities turned her down. From the first phone call with Heather and Tom, we knew that we were comfortable considering this home for our family.”
“Home cooked meals, even bbqs on the lake in the summer.”

Key Findings
The most recent renewal inspection identified issues regarding updated tuberculosis screening for the licensee, a delay in completing a resident's health care appraisal, and missing initials on medication administration records. The facility has submitted an acceptable corrective action plan, and the license has been renewed.
No documentation on file that the licensee, Janet Gaines, was screened for tuberculosis every three years; the last TB test on file was dated 2018.
Resident J did not have a health care appraisal on file that was completed at the time of admission to the home (Admission date: 12/18/23; Health Care Appraisal Dated: 03/28/24). This was noted as a repeat violation.
Resident E’s June 2024 medication administration record (MAR) was not initialed for the evening dose of Alprazolam 1mg from 06/01/24-06/03/24 or the afternoon dose of Fluphenazine 5mg on 06/04/24.
