Cortez Home recorded 6 state citations (1 serious, 5 minor) and 0 verified complaints since 2022 across 4 inspections. The May 2025 annual inspection found administrative deficiencies: annual licensing fees were unpaid with a late fee accrued, the lease agreement named a corporation rather than the individual listed as licensee, and the mailing address on file with the state was outdated. A follow-up visit on 5/27/2025 confirmed the new administrator had submitted correction documentation to the state. The 2024 inspection also noted licensing fees were not current. Physical plant conditions across all visits were largely in order: medications, toxins, and sharps were stored and locked appropriately, fire safety equipment was inspected and in place, and bathroom facilities were equipped with grab bars and nonslip surfaces throughout.
