- Track record — Across a 20-plus year licensed history, this community has drawn a substantial citation history, including 14 Type A and 16 Type B findings, which is a heavier record than typical for a community of this size and tenure.
- Recent 3 years — Rather than easing over time, the pattern has intensified recently: 7 of the 14 lifetime Type A findings and 5 of the 12 substantiated allegations occurred in just the past three years, alongside a steady stream of complaint-driven inspections.
- Complaints — Complaint investigations (47 lifetime, 23 in the past three years) far outnumber routine inspections (5 lifetime, 7 recent), indicating that most of what regulators have found here came from responding to specific concerns rather than scheduled reviews.
- Severity — About 13% of investigated allegations were substantiated overall, and none were closed as unfounded, meaning nearly all remaining cases were categorized as unsubstantiated rather than cleared outright.
- 1.Can you walk us through the specific Type A findings from the past three years and what corrective actions were taken?
- 2.Which categories of allegations were substantiated, and how has the community verified that the corrective actions actually resolved them?
- 3.What changes has leadership made in the last year to reduce the frequency of complaint investigations?

AI review summary
Early impressions are positive for its homelike feel, but families should verify the level of care offered before ruling it in or out.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Atmosphere & grounds — Visitors consistently describe the community as having a warm, homely feeling rather than an institutional one.
- Staff & care — Ask specifically about the range and ceiling of care levels supported, since at least one family found it insufficient for a higher-need parent.
- Value & pricing — Reviews don't cover pricing or fee structure, so confirm current costs and how they change if care needs increase.
- Dining — There is no information yet on dining quality or menu options, so this is worth asking about on a tour.
