Durando Home II

Over more than 20 years of operation, Durando Home II has accumulated 6 Type A citations (serious violations affecting resident safety or care) and 7 Type B citations (administrative or non-serious findings), along with 3 substantiated allegations from complaint investigations. While the facility has faced a notably high volume of complaint investigations relative to routine inspections, the substantiation rate is relatively low at roughly 10% of investigated allegations. The recent three-year record shows improvement, with no Type A citations during this period and only 1 Type B citation and 1 substantiated allegation. Families should ask the facility which categories of allegations were substantiated throughout its operating history and what corrective actions were taken and verified, particularly for the Type A violations that occurred in earlier years. Given the facility's small 4-bed capacity, some level of regulatory activity is not uncommon, but the concentration of serious violations earlier in its tenure warrants discussion about current safety protocols and staff training practices during any visit.
