FYI Safety Score

3.1 Severe

28 state citations (10 serious, 18 minor) and 5 verified complaints since 2022 across 38 inspections. The most serious findings include a June 2024 incident in which a resident with known swallowing difficulties choked on food and died; inspectors cited the facility for failing to update the resident's care plan to reflect a hospital-recommended soft diet. A September 2024 inspection found the facility had not reported multiple incidents to state regulators, including 3 deaths, 3 absent-without-leave events, and an incident in which a resident was found holding a knife attempting self-harm. In October 2023, inspectors substantiated a complaint that medication records for 3 of 4 residents had discrepancies, with missing start dates and counts that did not match. In March 2025, a serious citation was issued after staff used a wheelchair belt to restrain a resident without a physician's order or responsible party consent. In December 2025, a resident accessed a kitchen knife that was not secured per state storage regulations.
