state inspection and fewer complaint investigations with a clean severe-citation record.
- Track record — Over 12-plus years of licensure, the community has drawn 7 Type A and 11 Type B citations, a meaningful lifetime total that families should weigh alongside the more recent trend.
- Recent 3 years — In the past three years, dated inspection and complaint visits show zero Type A citations and just one Type B citation, indicating the most severe findings are concentrated earlier in the operating history rather than ongoing now.
- Complaints — Complaint investigations (29 lifetime) far outnumber routine inspections (4 lifetime), and roughly 9% of all investigated allegations were substantiated, with 5 substantiated lifetime and 2 of those in the past three years.
- Operating tenure — More than 12 years of continuous licensure gives this record real depth, meaning the recent clean stretch on severe findings is based on a reasonable number of inspection and complaint cycles rather than a short sample.

- 2.What changed operationally around three years ago that coincides with the drop in Type A findings and complaint volume?
- 3.Of the 5 substantiated allegations, which categories were involved and how were they resolved?
