AI summary
St. Therese Care Home has one Type A finding (the state's most severe citation class, covering resident safety or care) on record since licensing in 2024, but none of the four dated inspections in the past three years turned up further Type A or Type B issues.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across 2.5 years of operation the community has one Type A citation and six Type B (administrative, paperwork-level) citations, with none of the four complaint investigations resulting in a substantiated allegation.
- Recent 3 years — The four dated inspections and one complaint investigation in the past three years turned up zero Type A or Type B findings, suggesting the record has strengthened since the early Type A finding.
- Operating tenure — Licensed since February 2024, the community has only a handful of inspection cycles behind it, so the clean recent stretch is encouraging but still a limited sample to judge long-term consistency.
- Complaints — Two complaint investigations have been opened over the licensed period, with four allegations reviewed and none substantiated, indicating concerns raised so far have not been confirmed on investigation.
