AI summary

The Retreat has a single Type A finding (the state's most severe citation class, covering resident safety or care) over more than 21 years of operation, and none of its three inspections in the past three years turned up further findings.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Across more than two decades licensed, this small 9-bed home has one lifetime Type A finding and no Type B (administrative) citations, a narrow record for its tenure.
  • Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections, running into January 2026, show no Type A or Type B citations and no substantiated complaints, indicating the concern noted lifetime has not recurred.
  • Complaints — Only one complaint investigation has been filed in the entire licensed period, and it was not substantiated, suggesting complaint activity has been minimal and unconfirmed.
  • Operating tenure — More than 21 years of continuous licensure gives this record substantial weight; a small home of this size with only one Type A finding over that span reflects a consistent operating history.
