- Track record — The lifetime record includes 2 Type A citations affecting resident safety or care and 1 Type B administrative citation, both from earlier in the licensed period rather than recently.
- Recent 3 years — The past three years show zero Type A citations across 3 inspections and 7 complaint investigations, with only 1 administrative Type B finding, suggesting a steadier recent stretch.
- Complaints — Eleven complaint investigations against only 4 routine inspections is a notable volume for a 6-bed home, though just 1 of 36 total allegations was substantiated, a substantiation rate of roughly 3%.
- Operating tenure — Just under 6 years of licensed operation gives a moderate track record to evaluate, with a mix of routine inspections and complaint-driven visits spread fairly evenly across that period.
