Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Across a relatively short licensed period, this home has recorded 8 Type A findings, the state's most severe citation class covering resident safety and care, along with 7 Type B administrative findings; that volume is notable for a 6-bed operation and warrants a direct conversation with staff about what drove them.
  • Recent 3 years — Of the dated visits in the past three years, one complaint investigation resulted in a substantiated allegation and one Type A citation, meaning at least one serious finding falls inside the recent window rather than only in the distant past.
  • Complaints — One substantiated allegation appears among the total investigated, alongside five unsubstantiated and none unfounded, putting the substantiation rate at roughly 17 percent.
  • Operating tenure — With just over four years of licensed operation and eleven total visits on record, there is a meaningful but still limited history to judge trends from, so the concentration of findings carries more weight than it would in a longer track record.
Ask the community
  1. 1.Can staff walk through what the 8 Type A findings involved and what corrective actions were taken for each?
  2. 2.What specific corrective steps followed the substantiated complaint from December 2024, and how has the home verified they are working?
  3. 3.Have there been any additional inspections or complaints since May 2025, and what were the outcomes?
