Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Across just under 4 years of licensure, this small 6-bed home has had 2 Type A citations, the state's most severe class, tied to resident safety or care concerns.
  • Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections, spanning 2023 through 2025, show no Type A or Type B citations, indicating the concerns from earlier in the license period have not recurred.
  • Operating tenure — With licensure beginning in September 2022, the community has just under four years of history and five total inspection visits, so the recent clean stretch, while encouraging, still reflects a relatively short track record.
