AI Summary

Golden Age III has 5 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, involving resident safety or care) recorded over 17.6 years of operation, but none in the past three years, during which 5 inspections and 1 complaint investigation turned up no Type A or Type B citations.

Track record — Over more than 17 years of licensure, this small 6-bed home accumulated 5 Type A citations and 3 Type B (administrative) citations, but all of the dated Type A findings fall outside the most recent three-year window.
Recent 3 years — The last five inspections and the one complaint investigation in this window produced zero Type A or Type B citations, indicating a cleaner recent stretch than the lifetime total alone suggests.
Complaints — Only one complaint investigation has been filed in the home's history, and the allegation was unsubstantiated, meaning no violation was confirmed.
Operating tenure — With 17.6 years of continuous licensure and 6 total inspections, the record reflects a long operating history for a small home, which naturally sees fewer inspection cycles than larger communities.

Ask the community

1.Can staff walk through what the earlier Type A citations involved and what corrective actions were verified by the state?
2.What changes were made at the community that align with the clean inspection results over the past three years?
3.Since the home is small with infrequent inspections, how often does the community proactively review its own care and safety practices between state visits?

Reviewers consistently describe attentive, family-like care and a clean, comfortable home, though families should confirm specifics like pricing and staffing during a tour.

What reviewers praise

Staff & care — Caregivers are repeatedly described as attentive, consistent, and closely attuned to residents' medical and personal needs.
Atmosphere & grounds — The home is frequently praised as modern, clean, well-furnished, and comfortable.
Daily life & dignity — Residents report feeling safe, respected, and supported in maintaining independence as their needs change.
Value & pricing — One long-term resident's family believes the personalized care contributed to a longer, healthier life compared to a traditional facility.

Worth asking about

Financial transparency — Reviews do not mention costs or how fees might change as care needs increase, so families should ask about pricing structure directly.
Communication — It's worth confirming how the staff communicates with families about health changes and care plan updates on a regular basis.
