Cortez Home

Cortez Home has operated for nearly 17 years with a mixed compliance record that shows significant improvement in recent years. Over the facility's licensed period, state inspectors found one serious violation affecting resident safety or care and five administrative or non-serious findings related to areas like paperwork or minor procedural gaps. However, the past three years show a clean record with no Type A citations during recent inspections that covered life safety protocols and medication management practices. This 6-bed residential care facility has undergone only three total inspections since 2009, with no complaint investigations filed, suggesting few resident or family concerns have reached state regulators. The recent trajectory indicates stronger compliance practices, though families should ask about what specific corrective actions were implemented to address the earlier serious violation and how the facility maintains those improvements. The limited inspection frequency over such a long operating period means fewer opportunities to assess ongoing compliance, making direct conversations with staff and recent residents particularly valuable for understanding current care quality.
