2 minor state citations and 0 verified complaints since 2022 across 8 inspections. Both citations arose from a 2026 annual inspection that found a missing carbon monoxide detector, kitchen knives stored alongside cleaning supplies under the sink, and a glue trap stored with clean dishes in a kitchen cabinet. The same inspection noted that the facility's administrator had departed in February 2026, leaving a staff member working toward certification rather than a currently qualified administrator on site, incomplete staff files, and no completed hospice care plan training for staff. A follow-up visit 17 days later confirmed all cited safety items had been corrected: a carbon monoxide detector was tested and operational, knives were secured in a locked container, and the glue trap had been relocated. Across all prior visits dating to 2022, including routine annual inspections and an infection control inspection in 2025, no deficiencies were cited, and no complaints have ever been filed against the facility.
