Mary Frances Hat Residential Facility

Mary Frances Hat Residential Facility has operated for more than 28 years with a mixed compliance record that shows significant recent improvement. Over the entire licensed period, the facility has received 2 Type A citations (serious violations affecting resident safety or care) but no Type A citations in the past three years, indicating a stronger trajectory in areas like medication management and resident care plans. The facility has never had a substantiated allegation, with both investigated complaints being unsubstantiated, meaning state investigators found no merit to the concerns raised. The absence of Type B citations (administrative or non-serious findings) throughout the facility's history suggests consistent attention to documentation and procedural requirements. For a small 6-bed home, this recent clean record across multiple inspection cycles provides reasonable confidence in current operations, though families should ask the community about the nature of the earlier serious violations and what specific changes were implemented to prevent recurrence.
