2 state citations and 3 verified complaints since 2022 across 8 inspections. The most serious citation, from April 2023, was a serious violation for contaminated and expired food found in the kitchen, including moldy spam and expired sour cream, which inspectors classified as an immediate health risk; the issue was corrected on the spot. A minor citation involved shower documentation gaps, with staff not consistently recording when residents received bathing assistance. The 3 verified complaints center on bathroom assistance wait times, with multiple witnesses describing residents waiting 30 minutes to over an hour for help reaching the restroom, and staff later providing a commode without personal assistance. 4 additional complaints, including allegations that staff yelled at residents and confined them to their rooms, were investigated and found unsubstantiated. The most recent annual inspection in June 2025 found the facility in good repair with no deficiencies cited.
