1 serious state citation and 0 verified complaints across 7 inspections since 2021. The citation stems from a 2025 complaint investigation in which a resident was alleged to have been left on the ground for hours after falls; the facility, administrator, and staff all denied the allegation and explained that the resident prefers sitting on the floor and routinely refuses assistance, and the state ultimately did not substantiate the complaint as a violation warranting a citation in that case. A separate 2023 complaint alleged inadequate incontinence care leading to pressure injuries, but records showed the resident had been admitted with a pre-existing pressure injury, was receiving weekly wound care from a home health agency, and frequently refused staff assistance, leading to an unsubstantiated finding. The 1 serious citation on record comes from a different inspection event not detailed in the provided narratives. Annual inspections in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 each concluded without violations noted, with inspectors observing proper medication storage, adequate staffing, required furnishings, and appropriate infection control measures throughout.
