AI summary

Over more than 17 years of operation, Ace Senior Care Manor has accumulated 18 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and 12 Type B findings (administrative or paperwork-related), with 2 Type A findings occurring within the past three years.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — This is a small 6-bed home with a long licensing history, and its lifetime total of 18 Type A and 12 Type B findings is a substantial count to review with the community directly, well beyond what scale alone would typically explain.
  • Recent 3 years — The past three years show 9 inspections and 2 Type A citations tied to complaint visits, meaning the concerning pattern has continued into the recent period rather than being confined to the distant past.
  • Complaints — Of the allegations investigated over the community's lifetime, 4 were substantiated and 3 were unsubstantiated, a substantiation rate of roughly 57%, though no allegations were investigated in the most recent three years.
  • Operating tenure — Licensed since 2009, the community has more than 17 years of operating history, which gives this record considerable weight since it reflects many inspection cycles rather than a short or limited sample.

AI review summary

Families generally praise the attentive, high caregiver-to-resident ratio and cleanliness, but should ask directly about medical responsiveness and wound care protocols given serious concerns raised elsewhere.

Read Full Summary
What reviewers praise
  • Staff & care — Caregivers are frequently described as attentive and caring, with a favorable caregiver-to-resident ratio noted by families.
  • Cleanliness & maintenance — The facility is consistently praised for being very clean.
  • Communication — Staff have been commended for compassionate, knowledgeable guidance through complex processes like Medicaid applications and placement decisions.
  • Dining — Reviewers mention good food quality as a strength of the community.
Worth asking about
  • Staff & care — At least one account describes a serious lapse in medical attentiveness, including delayed wound care that led to infection, so families should ask specifically about clinical response protocols and staffing for medical emergencies.
  • Communication — A reviewer reported a call being cut off without follow-up, so it's worth confirming how the community handles phone communication and responsiveness during off-hours.
  • Daily life & dignity — Apartments were described as a little small, so families should tour in person to assess whether the room sizes meet their needs.
  • Value & pricing — One reviewer mentioned having to purchase additional items out-of-pocket, so it's worth clarifying upfront what costs are included versus billed separately.
