FYI Safety Score

4.9 Poor

New Era Guest Home has 18 state citations (4 serious and 14 minor) and 1 verified complaint across 7 inspections since 2022. The 1 verified complaint, substantiated following an investigation in September 2025, confirmed the facility went without liability insurance for approximately 14 days after the administrator switched providers due to rising premiums; the lapse ran from August 20 to September 3, 2025, when new coverage took effect. A separate complaint filed in May 2025 alleged that staff handled residents too roughly and too quickly during personal care, including grabbing a resident's arms; the department investigated, found conflicting accounts from residents and staff, and determined the allegation was unsubstantiated. The most recent annual inspection was conducted on February 9, 2026.
