4 minor state citations and 3 verified complaints since 2021 across 11 inspections, with no serious citations on record. The verified complaints, both substantiated in 2021, involved a family representative not being notified before an outside consultant assessed their loved one, failure to respond to email inquiries and provide requested medical records, a resident who experienced significant weight loss without timely physician notification, and failure to provide written incident reports to responsible parties following a fall. 4 minor inspector-found violations were also cited across the inspection history. Annual inspections in 2024 and 2025 found the facility clean, well-stocked, and free of deficiencies, and a 2025 management change inspection also resulted in no citations. A change in management was in process as of late 2025.
