A1 Elder Care

A1 Elder Care has accumulated 5 serious violations affecting resident safety or care and 3 administrative or non-serious findings during its seven years of operation, along with 3 substantiated allegations from complaint investigations. However, the community's recent record shows significant improvement — no Type A citations in the past three years, and the most recent substantiated allegation was more than three years ago. The facility has faced nearly as many complaint investigations (4) as routine inspections (5), with roughly 43% of investigated allegations being substantiated rather than unfounded. Families should ask the administration which specific categories of allegations were substantiated and what corrective actions were taken and verified by the state. Given the small 6-bed capacity, the historical citation count represents a concerning pattern for a facility of this size, but the recent trajectory suggests stronger compliance with state requirements for medication management and resident care planning. The improved performance over the past three years indicates the community may have addressed the underlying issues that led to earlier violations.
