31 state citations (12 serious, 19 minor) and 29 verified complaints since 2021 across 113 inspections. Among the most serious findings: in 2020, a resident was hospitalized with Tylenol toxicity at nearly 9 times the normal blood level after staff applied inconsistent package-checking practices and the facility lacked a written policy governing what could be brought in by family members. In 2022, inspectors verified call bell response times reaching nearly 2 hours, with records showing repeated daily instances exceeding 1 hour across multiple residents. In 2023, a complaint investigation found a leaking bathtub with black and brown mold discoloration, a urine odor in a resident room, and an unsecured bed frame; a separate investigation the same month confirmed that a resident deemed unable to self-administer medications had unsecured prescription drugs in her room. In 2024, inspectors found hazardous cleaning chemicals left unattended in an open resident room and confirmed a resident was not receiving medication as prescribed by her physician.
