Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Over more than two decades of operation, this small 5-bed home has accumulated 2 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and 4 Type B findings (administrative issues like paperwork or posting gaps).
- Recent 3 years — One Type A and 3 Type B findings occurred within the past three years, meaning the home's most notable findings are recent rather than spread evenly across its long history.
- Complaints — Of the allegations investigated over the home's history, 5 were substantiated and 3 were not, a substantiation rate of roughly 63 percent, and all 5 substantiated allegations fall within the recent 3-year window.
- Operating tenure — More than 21 years of continuous licensure gives a long baseline against which to judge this record, and the small size of the home (5 beds) means fewer residents and fewer inspection touchpoints than a larger community would generate.
