State inspectors have cited Beach Terrace Assisted Living and Memory Care 38 times (19 serious, 19 minor) and confirmed 21 complaints across 61 inspections. Among the confirmed findings: in December 2024, investigators found that staff had been directed to go back and fill in medication records for doses already given to residents, a form of document falsification that 4 of 5 staff interviewed confirmed, and separately that some residents had missed prescribed medications. That same month, inspectors confirmed the home smelled of urine and feces, and found that one resident had punched another in the mouth, injuring their lip; the resident who threw the punch confirmed this to inspectors, and multiple witnesses corroborated it. In 2023, inspectors confirmed that a resident had been left lying on a bare bed frame with the mattress propped against the wall. The state investigated other complaints as well, including separate allegations that staff had handled residents roughly, and investigators couldn't confirm those.
