- Track record — The lifetime total of 29 Type A and 62 Type B citations across only 5 routine inspections and 153 complaint investigations points to a pattern of recurring findings rather than an isolated incident.
- Recent 3 years — Ten Type A and 13 Type B citations were issued in the past three years alone, meaning the concerning pattern is active and current, not something the community has since resolved.
- Complaints — Complaint investigations (153) vastly outnumber routine inspections (5), and 41 allegations have been substantiated lifetime, with 24 of those in just the last three years, indicating families and staff have raised concerns frequently and regulators have often found them warranted.
- Operating tenure — At 6.4 years of licensure with 97 beds, this is a mid-tenure, larger-scale community, so the volume of complaints and findings cannot be attributed to a short operating history or a small home with limited scale.
- 1.Can you walk through the most recent Type A citations from the past three years and explain what corrective actions were taken and how they were verified by the state?
- 2.Given that 41 allegations have been substantiated, which categories of care or safety concerns came up most often, and what specific changes have been made since?
- 3.What is the current staffing plan and training process for medication management and resident care, and how has it changed in response to these findings?
