8 state citations (5 serious, 3 minor) and 0 verified complaints since 2021 across 13 inspections. The most serious recorded incident occurred on January 6, 2025, when inspectors found the facility's electricity had been shut off by the utility company due to nonpayment, with the outage affecting all locations owned by the licensee; a Non-Compliance Conference was held later that month. That same visit found 3 of 5 resident files missing current needs and services plans and 3 staff files lacking required annual dementia training. The facility has been subject to ongoing financial solvency monitoring since at least November 2020, with repeated findings tied to late utility payments, below-minimum food expenditures, and overdue documentation submissions. Earlier citations include a staff member working without fingerprint clearance on file in 2021 and an expired administrator certificate noted at visits in 2024 and 2025. The most recent inspection in January 2026 found resident and staff files complete and the physical plant in order, though 2 individuals present were identified as unaffiliated with the facility and directed to leave.
