FYI Safety Score

7.5 Fair

Ponte Palmero has 3 state citations (2 serious, 1 minor) and 5 verified complaints since 2021 across 29 inspections. The most significant confirmed finding came in 2021 when inspectors substantiated that staff failed to report a resident's deteriorating condition to a physician in a timely manner; the resident had not consumed food or fluids for approximately 3 days while quarantined for COVID-19 and was subsequently hospitalized for severe dehydration and a urinary tract infection. A 2025 investigation examined the June 2024 death of a memory care resident who had fallen 7 times in the preceding year and died from a traumatic brain injury following an unwitnessed fall; records reviewed during the investigation documented the resident had been assessed as a fall risk and used a walker for ambulation. The majority of the 41 complaints filed across the review period were found unfounded or unsubstantiated following interviews, observations, and record reviews.
