- Track record — Across 8.2 years of operation this 6-bed home has drawn a substantial citation history for a facility of its size, with 24 lifetime Type A findings and 21 Type B findings.
- Recent 3 years — The recent slice is not a clean break from the past: 4 Type A and 5 Type B citations were issued from complaint-driven visits in the last three years, alongside 5 substantiated allegations, so this reads as an active pattern rather than a resolved one.
- Complaints — Complaint investigations (7 lifetime, 4 in the past three years) have run close to or above the number of routine inspections, and of the allegations investigated, roughly 61% were substantiated with none ruled unfounded.
- Operating tenure — Devonshire has been licensed since 2018, so the record reflects a meaningful operating history rather than a short or unproven one, and the findings are spread across multiple inspection and complaint cycles rather than a single incident.
- 1.Which specific conditions led to the Type A citations issued in 2024 and 2025, and what corrective actions were verified by the state?
- 2.What changes has the home made to prevent recurrence, given that Type A findings appeared again within the past three years?
- 3.Of the 14 substantiated allegations, which categories were most common and how were they addressed with staff or residents?

AI review summary
A serious account of neglect, missed medical appointments, poor hygiene, and lack of stimulation should be thoroughly investigated before considering this community.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — A reviewer described residents being neglected, with a loved one found unbathed and unstimulated between unannounced visits, so ask how staffing levels and personal care routines are monitored.
- Communication — The reviewer reported learning about missed doctor and dentist appointments only after the fact, via calls from outside providers rather than proactive updates from staff, so ask how appointment scheduling and follow-through are tracked and communicated.
- Activities — The review states there was little to no stimulation or activity offered and that a resident's TV was never even hooked up, so ask to see a sample activities calendar and how it is executed day to day.
- Dining — Food quality was described as substandard, so ask to review sample menus and, ideally, sit in on a meal during a tour.
