Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — All 5 Type A citations and 4 Type B (administrative) citations on record date to the earlier part of this community's licensed history, with the most recent three-year window showing a clean slate across 17 inspections and 13 complaint investigations.
- Recent 3 years — No Type A or Type B citations and no substantiated allegations have been recorded in the past three years, indicating a meaningfully stronger recent trajectory than the lifetime totals alone would suggest.
- Complaints — Complaint investigations (19 lifetime) outnumber routine inspections, and of the 49 allegations investigated over the community's history, none were substantiated — 21 were unsubstantiated and 28 unfounded.
- Operating tenure — Licensed since December 2020, this is a mid-tenure community whose 5.6 years of operation and heavy recent inspection cadence give a reasonably solid basis for judging the current trajectory.
