FYI Safety Score

7.7 Fair

3 state citations (2 minor, 1 serious) and 1 verified complaint since 2021 across 11 inspections. The most significant finding came from a June 2025 complaint investigation that found discrepancies between medication records and administration logs for at least 5 of a resident's medications, with hospice documenting that medications had not been managed and administered as ordered -- this complaint was substantiated and a serious deficiency was cited. A minor deficiency was also cited in April 2025 when a follow-up visit found that a physician's report on file belonged to another individual, not the resident it was assigned to. A 2021 annual inspection resulted in 2 additional minor citations. 1 complaint involving a staff member accused of rough handling and not treating a resident with dignity was investigated in December 2024 and found unsubstantiated, with multiple residents and staff reporting no such conduct. A 2023 complaint about resident-to-resident conflict was also investigated and found unsubstantiated after the facility demonstrated active steps to separate and de-escalate the situation. The 2 most recent annual inspections, in July 2025, resulted in no deficiencies.
