- Track record — This is a small 6-bed home with 4 lifetime Type A findings and 20 Type B administrative findings (paperwork, posting, or minor procedure gaps) over more than three decades of licensure.
- Recent 3 years — Two of the four Type A findings and all 5 substantiated allegations fall within the past three years, indicating the more serious activity in this record is recent rather than spread evenly across the home's history.
- Complaints — Roughly 56% of investigated allegations here were substantiated, and complaint investigations (5 lifetime, 2 recent) have driven a meaningful share of the citation activity rather than routine inspections alone.
- Operating tenure — More than 32 years of continuous licensure gives real weight to this record — it reflects a long operating history rather than a short or unproven one.
- 1.Which categories of allegations were substantiated in the past three years, and what corrective actions were taken and verified?
- 2.What specifically led to the two recent Type A findings, and has the home changed any procedures or staffing since then?
- 3.Are there more recent inspection results since January 2026 that show continued improvement or new findings?
