FYI Safety Score

8.7 Good

Tessa's Place 1 has 2 serious state citations and 1 verified complaint since 2022 across 8 inspections. Both citations stem from a February 2022 inspection conducted alongside a complaint investigation: inspectors found pre-poured medications, Amoxicillin, and Tylenol left unsecured on the dining room counter, and discovered the smoke detector in the caregiver room had no batteries installed. The 1 verified complaint is linked to those same 2022 findings. Annual inspections in March 2025 and October 2025 found the facility clean, safe, and sanitary, with all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors operational, medications secured in a locked closet, fire extinguishers current on service, and no physical plant hazards noted. A 2024 complaint investigation regarding facility cleanliness and water intrusion was found unsubstantiated after inspection.
