Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across almost 7 years of licensure, the community has accumulated 2 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and 3 Type B findings (administrative issues like paperwork or posting gaps), along with 3 substantiated allegations out of the allegations investigated.
- Recent 3 years — The dated visits from the past three years show zero Type A citations and only one Type B citation, suggesting the more serious findings occurred earlier in the community's operating history rather than recently.
- Complaints — Complaint investigations (9 lifetime) have outpaced routine inspections (5 lifetime), and roughly 20% of investigated allegations were substantiated, with 2 of the 3 substantiated allegations falling within the past three years.
- Operating tenure — Just under 7 years of licensed operation and 15 total dated visits give a reasonably solid base of inspection history to judge the record against, more than a brand-new community but still short of a decades-long track record.
