14 state citations (3 serious, 11 minor) and 15 verified complaints since 2021 across 39 inspections, with the most recent visit recorded on February 9, 2026. Substantiated findings include a 2022 inspection that confirmed the facility retained a discharged resident's undelivered closing check, and a 2021 investigation in which the administrator acknowledged withholding SSI and SSDI payments from 12 residents due to a facility check system error. A verified complaint found that staff directed a diabetic resident to self-administer twice-daily insulin injections without documentation of updated physician orders authorizing self-administration. A 2022 medication complaint involved a resident who reported going without a prescribed psychotropic medication for an extended period after the facility transitioned to a new electronic records system; staff attributed any delay to the time required for updated doctor orders. A 2021 food service investigation found kitchen staff had been using the neighboring skilled nursing facility's menu for assisted living residents, an error that was corrected by management following the inspection.
