- Track record — Over its full licensed history this small 6-bed home accumulated 22 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and 9 Type B findings (administrative issues like paperwork or posting requirements), a sizable count that warrants direct conversation with the community about what occurred and how it was addressed.
- Recent 3 years — The last five inspections, spanning mid-2021 through July 2025, produced zero Type A or Type B citations and zero substantiated complaints, indicating a meaningfully stronger recent trajectory than the lifetime total alone would suggest.
- Complaints — Of the four complaint investigations filed over the license period, four allegations were substantiated against one unsubstantiated and one unfounded, a roughly 67% substantiation rate, though none of these substantiated findings fall within the past three years.
- Operating tenure — More than 25 years of continuous licensure gives real weight to the recent clean stretch — this is a long-tenured operator whose current inspection pattern looks different from its earlier years.
