AI summary

Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Over more than 14 years of operation, Bella Vista accumulated 3 Type A findings and 11 Type B findings (administrative issues like paperwork or posting gaps), alongside 8 complaint investigations that produced 2 substantiated allegations.
- Recent 3 years — The past three years show a notably stronger trajectory: 6 inspections and 1 complaint investigation with no Type A or Type B citations and no substantiated allegations, suggesting the issues behind the lifetime totals are not part of the current pattern.
- Complaints — Of the 8 lifetime complaint investigations, only 2 allegations were substantiated (about 17%), with the rest unsubstantiated rather than unfounded, and none of the substantiated cases fall within the recent three-year window.
- Operating tenure — More than 14 years of continuous licensure gives this record real depth — enough inspection cycles to distinguish an isolated cluster of past findings from an ongoing pattern, and the data here points to the former.
