Within its first 6 months of operation, the facility accumulated 5 serious citations including oxygen administration by untrained staff, conduct harmful to residents, and disseminating false or misleading statements, leading to a Non-Compliance Conference with state regulators in November 2023. A staff member was separately cited for lying to investigators about an allegation of inappropriate touching after being instructed to do so by a supervisor. A June 2023 inspection found cockroach nymphs and droppings in the kitchen, and substantiated complaints included missing resident clothing and staff using 1 resident's disposable underwear on another. In May 2025, inspectors found the facility had administered 4 times a resident's prescribed morphine dose across 6 doses over 4 days while logging the incorrect amount in the medication log. A separate 2025 inspection found refrigerators operating at 53 to 56 degrees F with perishable food stored inside, which was substantiated as a complaint.
