Summer Place recorded 8 state citations, including 1 serious, and 1 verified complaint since 2024 across 9 inspections, following a change of ownership in late 2024. The serious citation, issued in November 2025, found the facility retaining 6 bedridden residents beyond its licensed limit of 1 without the required fire clearance or licensing approval. Minor citations covered medication handling practices, including staff transferring medications out of their original packaging into divided time-of-day containers and leaving resident medication records unsecured and accessible under a table. The 1 verified complaint, substantiated in March 2026, found that staff failed to provide a resident's records to their representative despite a written request in December 2025 and multiple follow-up attempts over several months. 3 other complaints filed during the same period were investigated and found unsubstantiated, including allegations of improper medication dispensing, inadequate personal hygiene care, and failure to assist with repositioning. The facility's January 2026 annual inspection found the physical plant clean, sanitary, and in good repair with no deficiencies cited.
