Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across six-plus years, this small six-bed home has accumulated only one Type B administrative citation and no Type A findings, indicating no pattern of safety or care concerns.
- Recent 3 years — The three inspections and one complaint investigation conducted in the past three years produced no citations and no substantiated allegations, showing a clean recent trajectory.
- Complaints — One of the two complaint investigations over the licensed period resulted in a substantiated allegation, but that finding falls outside the recent three-year window, and the other allegation was unsubstantiated.
- Operating tenure — With just six beds and over six years of licensed operation, the facility's small scale naturally limits the volume of findings, but the consistency across four inspection cycles adds some confidence to the clean pattern.

AI review summary
Most families praise attentive, family-style care and a spotless home, but a serious 2023 account of neglect and one care lapse mean families should verify staffing, medical training, and toileting protocols directly.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Reviewers repeatedly describe the caregivers and owners as warm, attentive, and treating residents like family, especially for complex needs like Parkinson's and hospice.
- Cleanliness & maintenance — The home is consistently described as spotless, well-appointed, and beautifully maintained inside and out.
- Dining — Families frequently highlight the home-cooked meals as delicious and note residents are kept dressed and groomed daily.
- Atmosphere & grounds — Reviewers value the small, homey, family-oriented setting in a nice residential neighborhood over larger institutional facilities.
- Staff & care — One detailed account describes serious neglect of a paraplegic resident, including being left in soiled diapers overnight and inadequate response to a wound, so families should ask specifically about staffing coverage overnight and medical/first-aid training.
- Activities — An earlier review noted a lack of structured activities and outside enrichment programs, worth confirming has improved.
- Communication — Some reviewers mention miscommunication about room availability and difficulty getting regular updates on a resident's condition, so ask how the community handles family reporting and reservation confirmations.
