AI summary
MuirWoods Memory Care has accumulated 10 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, involving resident safety or care) and 4 Type B administrative findings over 8.3 years of licensed operation, with 1 Type A finding and 3 substantiated allegations occurring within just the past three years.

- Track record — Ten Type A findings and four Type B findings across the full licensed period is a substantial count for an 80-bed community, and the pattern warrants a direct conversation with staff about what drove them and what has changed since.
- Recent 3 years — In the past three years, dated visits show 1 Type A and 1 Type B finding rather than the full lifetime total, indicating the record has not been repeating at the same pace recently, though a Type A finding this recently is still worth understanding in detail.
- Complaints — Nine complaint investigations occurred in just the past three years despite zero being logged for the full lifetime total prior to that window, and of 30 lifetime allegations investigated, about 17% (5) were substantiated, with 3 of those 5 landing in the recent period.
- Operating tenure — The community has been licensed since 2018, giving over eight years and five dated inspection cycles of history to weigh, so this record reflects a meaningful operating span rather than a short or thin one.
- 1.Can you walk us through the most recent Type A finding from the last three years — what happened and what corrective action was taken?
- 2.Of the 5 substantiated allegations, which categories were involved, and how were they resolved and verified by the state?
- 3.Why did complaint investigations increase sharply in the past three years, and what changes has the community made in response?
