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.

    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, record review, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure the kitchen was maintained in a sanitary manner, putting 147 residents who received meals from the kitchen (12 residents received nutrition via feeding tubes) out of 159 total residents at potential risk for foodborne illness. Specifically, failures included: improper freezer temperatures, a lack of functioning thermometers in the refrigerators/freezers, improper concentration of sanitizer solutions, uncleanable surfaces due to rust, not labeling foods removed from original packaging with the identification of the contents, unclean microwaves in the pantries, improperly maintained equipment such as refrigerators in the nursing pantries, an ice machine was unclean on the inside box where ice was made and stored, and tray line food holding temperatures were outside of safe temperature ranges.
  2. E
    Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights.
    F550 · Resident Rights · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, pattern · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 5, 2025
    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, record review, and policy review, the facility failed to allow one out of 33 sampled residents (Resident (R)15) to exercise her right to go to the day room to attend activities. R15 was not allowed to co-mingle with other residents in the activity room after she sustained an infection. R15 was currently on enhanced barrier precautions which did not dictate that the resident could not leave her room and attend activities in the day room or socialize there. This created the potential for R15 to experience isolation and the inability to enjoy previous activities in which she had participated.
  3. D
    Allow resident to participate in the development and implementation of his or her person-centered plan of care.
    F553 · Resident Rights · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, isolated · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 5, 2025
    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, record review, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure one resident and family member out of 32 sampled residents (Resident (R)103) were invited to the quarterly care plan meeting. The facility's practice did not include inviting residents or families to quarterly care plan meetings. This created the potential for residents/families to lack information regarding care and services provided and lack the opportunity to provide input into care provided.
  4. D
    Provide the required documentation or notification related to the resident's needs, appeal rights, or bed-hold policies.
    F628 · Resident Rights · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, isolated · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 5, 2025
    Inspectors wroteBased on interview, record review, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure written notice of the facility's bed hold policy and/or transfer notices that contained all necessary information were provided to three of four residents and/or representatives (Resident (R) 1, R22, and R7) reviewed for transfer notices out of a total sample of 32. This failure had the potential for the resident and/or representative not to have knowledge of where and why a resident was transferred, how to appeal the transfer, or to be knowledgeable of the facility's bed hold policy.
  5. D
    Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.

    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, record review, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure one out of one sample residents reviewed for range of motion (ROM) (Resident (R) 58) out of a total sample of 32 residents, had an elbow splint/hand roll applied in accordance with physician's orders. This created the potential for R 58 to experience a worsening of her contracted left arm/hand.
  6. D
    Provide or obtain laboratory tests/services when ordered and promptly tell the ordering practitioner of the results.
    F773 · Administration · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, isolated · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 5, 2025
    Inspectors wroteBased on interview, record review and policy review, the facility failed to ensure laboratory results were followed up on in a timely manner for one of three sampled residents (Resident (R) 58) reviewed for a urinary tract infection (UTI) out of a total sample of 32. R58's Urinalysis and Culture and Sensitivity (C & S) results revealed she may have had a urinary tract infection. There was no documentation of follow up indicating the Physician was notified of the results and no documentation of whether the physician wanted to treat the infection until the surveyor asked about it nine days later. This created the potential for R58 to experience a UTI without treatment.
  7. D
    Provide or obtain dental services for each resident.
    F791 · Quality of Life and Care · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, isolated · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 5, 2025

The deficient practice was evidenced by the following. 1.
