Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Over more than 15 years of licensure, this small 6-bed home has accumulated a single Type A citation, the state's most severe class covering resident safety or care concerns, with no administrative (Type B) findings at all.
- Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections, spanning 2022 through 2026, produced no Type A or Type B citations, indicating the record has been clean well past whenever the earlier finding occurred.
- Complaints — No complaint investigations have been logged at any point in the licensed history, meaning the inspection findings come entirely from routine visits rather than triggered allegations.
- Operating tenure — More than 15 years of continuous operation with only one lifetime Type A finding and a clean recent stretch reflects a long, largely steady compliance history for a small home of this size.
