Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Six inspections spanning four decades of licensure have produced no citations of any kind, a fully clean regulatory history.
- Recent 3 years — The four most recent inspections, from 2021 through 2026, continued that pattern with no findings, so the current trajectory matches the lifetime record.
- Operating tenure — Forty years of continuous licensure with a citation-free record gives this history unusually strong weight compared to newer communities.
- Complaints — No complaint investigations have been filed against this home, meaning the clean record reflects both routine inspection results and the absence of any triggered complaint review.
