Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
This facility has a pattern of recurring fire safety issues across multiple surveys, with problems in sprinkler systems, fire doors, and smoke barriers appearing repeatedly from 2023 through 2025. One family filed a complaint in 2024 regarding accident prevention and supervision. The facility also shows repeated issues with medication management and infection control. While all deficiencies were reportedly corrected, the persistence of similar fire safety violations across surveys suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that families should discuss during visits.
