AI summary
Five Type A findings — the state's most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care — appear in this small home's lifetime record, but none have occurred in the past three years, during which two inspections and one complaint investigation turned up no new citations.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Over its 2.2 years licensed, the community accumulated 5 Type A findings and 2 Type B (administrative/paperwork) findings, all from inspections earlier in its history.
- Recent 3 years — The two most recent inspections and the one complaint investigation, covering the past three years, produced zero Type A or Type B citations, suggesting the record has improved since the early findings.
- Operating tenure — With only about two years of licensed operation and two inspection cycles total, there is limited history to draw on, so the recent clean stretch is encouraging but based on a small number of visits.
- Scale — As a 6-bed home, this community has fewer residents and less physical footprint than larger facilities, which naturally means fewer opportunities for findings to arise.
- 1.Can you walk through what the five Type A findings involved and what corrective actions were taken?
- 2.What changes were made after those early findings that led to the clean recent inspections?
- 3.Since this is a small, newer-licensed home, how often does the state schedule inspections here going forward?

AI review summary
Reviewers describe a small, attentive home-like community with good staffing ratios and food, though families should verify pricing and higher-level-care details directly.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — A favorable staff-to-resident ratio of three staff for six residents is highlighted, along with an awake overnight staff member to monitor residents as needed.
- Dining — The food service is described as great, suggesting residents are well cared for at mealtimes.
- Atmosphere & grounds — The small, home-like setting includes a good patio area where residents can spend time outdoors.
- Value & pricing — Reviews do not mention cost or how fees might change if a resident's care needs increase, so families should confirm pricing details on a tour.
- Communication — It's worth asking staff how they keep families updated on day-to-day changes in a resident's condition, since this isn't addressed in the available feedback.
