Irene's Board & Care has 15 state citations (6 serious, 9 minor) and 5 verified complaints since 2021 across 17 inspections. The most significant substantiated finding involved a resident being physically restrained in bed with tied sheets to limit movement, confirmed by 2 reliable witnesses in October 2024; when a staff member was confronted about the practice, they responded dismissively and declined to identify who was responsible. A separate verified complaint documented recurring obstruction of emergency exit doors in resident rooms: the issue was verbally addressed during a November 2024 annual inspection, yet obstructions were still present during a follow-up visit in December 2024. Following these findings, the facility was placed on a 2-year frequent monitoring program after a non-compliance conference in July 2025. Monitoring visits in August 2025 and March 2026 found additional hazards, including aerosol chemicals accessible to residents and electrical outlets missing faceplates with exposed wiring. Multiple other complaints, including allegations about infection control, staff training, Hoyer lift use, and food supply, were investigated and found unsubstantiated.
