Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across 18.5 years of licensure this small six-bed home has drawn 6 Type A citations and 22 Type B (administrative) citations, a record worth discussing directly with staff even though the pattern has shifted more recently.
- Recent 3 years — All 4 dated inspections and 3 complaint investigations in the past three years produced Type B findings only, with zero Type A citations in that window, suggesting the more severe findings sit further back in the home's history.
- Complaints — Seven of the 17 investigated allegations over the full licensed period were substantiated (about 41%), and 4 of those substantiations occurred within just the last three years, so complaint activity has stayed steady even as severity has eased.
- Operating tenure — Golden Care Living has been licensed since 2008, giving it a long operating history that provides more signal than a newer home would, both for the earlier Type A findings and for the cleaner recent stretch.
- 1.Can staff walk through what led to the Type A citations earlier in the home's history and what changes were made afterward?
- 2.Which categories of the 7 substantiated allegations were involved, and what corrective actions were verified by the state?
- 3.What accounts for the recent complaint investigations, and were the resulting Type B citations administrative or related to care practices?

AI review summary
Reviews are sharply mixed: some families report attentive, caring staff and good food, but a serious 2019 complaint raises red flags about sanitation, food quality, and rigid visiting hours that families should investigate directly.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Multiple reviewers describe caregivers as attentive and genuinely caring, helping with bathing and daily needs while keeping residents safe.
- Dining — Some reviewers report residents receive three square meals a day and describe the food as good, though this is directly disputed elsewhere.
- Cleanliness & maintenance — One reviewer described the community as clean, though another raised serious sanitation concerns.
- Cleanliness & maintenance — A detailed complaint describes broken air conditioning and restrooms lacking toilet paper, soap, and paper towels, so families should verify current facility conditions and upkeep on a tour.
- Dining — One reviewer described repetitive, low-quality meals unsuitable for diabetic residents, which conflicts with more positive accounts, so ask about current menu variety and dietary accommodations.
- Communication — Visiting hours were described as inflexible and ending too early for working family members, so confirm current visitation policies before choosing this community.
