Health inspections
Federal rules call for a standard inspection at least every 15 months, plus a visit whenever a complaint is filed. Each mark below is one citation, colored by how serious inspectors rated it. How to read a citation.
Under each citation, the quoted text is the inspector's own summary from the federal statement of deficiencies (CMS form 2567), word for word apart from a privacy scrub; CMS removes residents' and staff names before it publishes the text. The full notes are on Medicare.gov.
Where its citations fall on CMS's grid
CMS rates every citation by how much harm it caused (rows) and how many residents it touched (columns). The count in each box is this home's, across all 7 health citations on file.
September 11, 2025Standard inspection · 2 citations
- D Protect each resident from the wrongful use of the resident's belongings or money.
Inspectors wroteBased on interview, record review, and facility document and policy review, the facility failed to protect a resident's property from misappropriation for one of three residents (Resident (R) 96) reviewed for resident rights out of a total sample of 23. This failure had the possibility of negatively impacting all residents residing at the facility due to residents' property not being safeguarded against theft.
- D Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Inspectors wroteBased on observations, interview, and facility policy review, the facility failed to administer medications in a manner to prevent cross-contamination for five out of six residents (Resident (R)14, R65, R87, R97, and R98) observed during medication administration. This had the potential to cause the spread of infection in the facility.
August 15, 2024Standard inspection · 2 citations
- D Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
Inspectors wroteBased on review of observations, interviews, record review and facility policy, the facility failed to administer oxygen consistent with professional standards of practice for 1 of 1 residents reviewed for respiratory care, Resident (R)21.

August 9, 2022Standard inspection · 3 citations
- D Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured.
Inspectors wroteBased on review of the facility policy, observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that 1 of 5 residents (Resident (R) 70) reviewed for potential accidents related to bed rail use was care planned for bed mobility and positioning with bed rails. The failure to address the use of bed rails in the comprehensive care plan could increase the risk for falls, entrapments, and injuries related to the facility's use of bed rails for vulnerable residents.
- D Try different approaches before using a bed rail. If a bed rail is needed, the facility must (1) assess a resident for safety risk; (2) review these risks and benefits with the resident/representative; (3) get informed consent; and (4) Correctly install and maintain the bed rail.
Inspectors wroteBased on review of the facility policy, observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that 1 of 5 residents (Resident (R) 123) and/or Resident Representative (RR) reviewed for bed rail used were informed of the risks and benefits, and consent, for the use of bed rails. This failure had the potential for residents with bed rails to be uninformed of the risk of severe injury and/or death associated with bed rail use.
- D Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Inspectors wroteBased on review of the facility policy, observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure, for 1 of 4 residents (Resident (R) 10) observed during medication administration observations, the medication was accurately labeled during 1 of 1 nasal spray medication observations. This failure to identify a mislabeled medication increases the potential of medication errors.
