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.

    Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents.
    F689 · Quality of Life and Care · Actual harm, isolated · found on a complaint visit · Past noncompliance: already fixed when inspectors found it
    Inspectors wroteBased on record review, observation, interview, staff interview, and review of facility policy, the facility failed to provide supervision consistent with the assessed needs of one of one resident reviewed for accidents (Resident (R) 111). Specifically, the facility failed to supervise R111 by leaving her unattended in the dayroom. This failure resulted in an unwitnessed fall and a right distal humerus fracture requiring emergency department evaluation and immobilization.
  2. F
    Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards.
    F812 · Nutrition and Dietary · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, widespread · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) July 24, 2026
    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview and policy review, the facility failed to store, prepare and serve food under accepted sanitary conditions due to failure to separate dented cans from the for-use supply and failure to remove expired items from the food supply. The deficient practice had the potential to affect the 92 of 97 residents receiving oral diets.
  3. D
    Ensure that each resident is free from the use of physical restraints, unless needed for medical treatment.
    F604 · Freedom from Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitation · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, isolated · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) July 24, 2026
    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, record review, and review of the facility policy titled, the facility failed to ensure one of one resident reviewed for unnecessary physical restraints (Resident (R) 12) was free from an unnecessary physical restraint. The resident's individualized Broda chair was switched out with a replacement Broda chair that prevented R12 from independently propelling herself and from using her customary method of locomotion. The facility failed to complete an individualized seating assessment following the equipment change, and continued use of the replacement chair for approximately one week despite R12's inability to independently propel herself. This failure restricted R12's freedom of movement and had the potential to result in avoidable decline in mobility, positioning, comfort, and psychosocial well-being.
  4. D
    Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals.
    F657 · Resident Assessment and Care Planning · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, isolated · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) July 24, 2026
    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to revise the Comprehensive Care Plan for one of one resident reviewed for Comprehensive Care Plans (Resident (R) 12). Specifically, after replacing R12's individualized Broda chair with a replacement chair that no longer allowed the resident to independently propel herself using her customary method of locomotion, the facility failed to assess and revise the resident's Comprehensive Care Plan to address the resident's change in functional mobility, positioning needs, and use of the replacement Broda chair. This failure had the potential to result in care that did not reflect R12's current needs and functional abilities.

    Give residents notice of Medicaid/Medicare coverage and potential liability for services not covered.
    F582 · Resident Rights · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, pattern · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 27, 2023
    Inspectors wroteBased on record review and interview the facility failed to ensure Center for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS)-10055 Skilled Nursing Facility Advance Beneficiary Notice of Non-coverage (SNFABN) was completed correctly by the responsible parties for Resident #198 and Resident #52. This affected two (2) of three (3) residents reviewed for notification of changes in Medicare Part A coverage.
  2. E
    Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards.
    F812 · Nutrition and Dietary · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, pattern · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 27, 2023
    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure food and prepared and distributed under sanitary conditions. The failure to ensure the ceiling and pipes above the steam table, used for holding foods and plating foods served during meals had smooth and impervious surfaces increased the risk for contamination of food items held or assembled for residents receiving meals serviced by the kitchen.
  3. D
    Ensure each resident receives and the facility provides food prepared in a form designed to meet individual needs.
    F805 · Nutrition and Dietary · No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm, isolated · Corrected (the home has a date of correction) October 27, 2023
    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that food received was prepared in a form designed to meet individual needs. Failure to ensure the mechanical soft diets were served foods identified on the menu increased the risk a resident could choking or could not eat the foods served for five (5) of 19 sampled residents (#1, #5, #14, #68, #80) who had orders for the altered texture diet.
