FYI Safety Score™

4.7 Poor

Five Star Senior Living has accumulated 20 state citations (5 serious, 15 minor) and 1 verified complaint since 2023 across 15 inspections. The most recent annual inspection in February 2026 produced the largest citation cluster to date, with 3 serious violations for improper storage of hazardous materials and deficiencies in incidental medical care services, plus 7 minor citations covering maintenance, personnel records, resident records, and acceptance and retention practices. A case management visit in August 2025 found that 2 resident hospitalizations in May 2025 had not been reported to the state as required, resulting in an advisory note. The 1 verified complaint, investigated following a 2024 allegation, involved a claim that a staff member pushed and yelled at a resident. Earlier inspections in 2023 and 2025 identified unlocked hazardous storage areas, including cleaning products and kitchen knives, which staff corrected on the spot during those visits.
