The facility has struggled with persistent issues including pharmacy services, smoke detection systems, emergency power generators, and proper food handling that appear across multiple years. While all deficiencies have correction dates, the repeated nature of safety and medication problems suggests ongoing operational challenges that families should carefully consider.
