Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Over almost four decades of licensure, this small 6-bed home has drawn 9 Type A citations (the state's most severe class, tied to resident safety or care) and 25 Type B citations (administrative, paperwork, or procedural gaps), indicating findings have occurred at multiple points across a long operating history.
- Recent 3 years — The four dated inspections since 2022 show zero Type A citations and just one Type B citation, suggesting the recent trajectory is markedly cleaner than the lifetime total alone would imply.
- Complaints — Four of seven investigated allegations over the years were substantiated, a roughly 57% substantiation rate, with the most recent substantiated allegation tied to a November 2024 complaint investigation.
- Operating tenure — Nearly 39 years of continuous licensure gives real weight to the recent clean stretch, since this is a home with a long track record rather than a new or thinly-inspected operation.
- 1.Can you walk through what the Type A findings involved historically, and what changes were made to prevent recurrence?
- 2.What was the substantiated allegation from the November 2024 complaint investigation, and what corrective action was taken?
- 3.Since the last three years show no Type A findings, what specific practices or staffing changes contributed to that improvement?
