AI summary

A1 Elder Care's lifetime record includes 5 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and 3 Type B administrative findings across 7.2 years of operation, but none of those Type A citations occurred in the past three years of inspections.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Over its full licensed history this small 6-bed home has accumulated 5 Type A and 3 Type B citations, along with 3 substantiated allegations out of 7 investigated — a substantiation rate of roughly 43%, which is worth understanding in more detail.
  • Recent 3 years — The past three years show a clearly different picture: 4 inspections and 1 complaint investigation produced zero Type A or Type B citations and zero substantiated allegations, suggesting the concerning findings cluster earlier in the home's history rather than reflecting current conditions.
  • Complaints — Complaint investigations have run alongside routine inspections fairly closely (4 versus 5 lifetime), and most of the substantiated allegations trace back to a cluster of visits in late 2022 rather than being spread evenly across the years.
  • Operating tenure — At just over 7 years licensed, A1 Elder Care has enough inspection history to give the recent clean stretch real weight, rather than being a short-term snapshot.
Ask the community
  1. 1.Can you walk through what the Type A findings from 2022 involved and what corrective actions were put in place since then?
  2. 2.What changes were made to resident care, staffing, or oversight after the late-2022 cluster of citations and substantiated allegations?
  3. 3.Has the community had any complaint investigations or citations since the 2026 inspections, and how are compliance issues tracked and verified today?
