Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — The lifetime total of 15 Type A and 23 Type B citations across two decades of licensure is a substantial volume for a 5-bed home, and points to a recurring pattern of findings rather than isolated incidents.
- Recent 3 years — The recent slice shows continued activity rather than a clean turnaround: one Type A citation and one substantiated allegation were recorded within the past three years, alongside a notably high frequency of inspections (7) in that window.
- Complaints — Of the four complaint investigations over the life of the license, half of all investigated allegations were substantiated, a meaningfully high ratio that's worth understanding in detail.
- Operating tenure — More than 22 years of continuous licensure gives this record a long, well-established baseline, meaning the citation pattern reflects sustained operating history rather than a short or thin sample.
