7.7 Fair

Anita's Cottage has 5 state citations and 1 verified complaint since 2023 across 7 inspections, including 1 serious and 4 minor citations. The facility changed ownership in early 2023 when Administrator Mario Gurule assumed operation, and the same caregiving staff have been present across subsequent annual inspections. Routine inspection narratives describe the kitchen, living areas, resident bedrooms, and bathrooms as clean, appropriately furnished, and in compliance, with food stores, locked chemicals, and required postings all observed in order. The specific violations underlying the citations are not detailed in the available inspection narratives. Among the 6 total complaints filed with the state, investigators reviewed 2 recent allegations in depth: a 2025 complaint that staff did not give proper notice of a resident room change, and a 2025 complaint that staff failed to administer medications as prescribed. Both were found unsubstantiated after on-site visits, staff and resident interviews, and record review. The 1 verified complaint is on record but its subject is not described in the available report narratives.
