Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Over more than two decades of licensure, Drake House has accumulated one Type A finding (the most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and two Type B findings (administrative issues like paperwork or posting requirements).
- Recent 3 years — The four dated inspections since 2022 show no Type A or Type B citations, indicating the most recent stretch of oversight has been clean.
- Complaints — Ten complaint investigations have been logged over the licensed period, with one substantiated allegation and the rest closed as unsubstantiated or unfounded; none of the recent three years' visits involved a new complaint.
- Operating tenure — More than 20 years of continuous operation gives this record real weight — the clean recent stretch follows a long history rather than a short or untested one.
