AI summary

Shalom House shows 1 Type A finding across nearly 29 years of operation, with no Type A or Type B citations in the past three years of inspections.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Over almost three decades licensed, Shalom House has accumulated one Type A finding (the most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and nine Type B findings (administrative issues like paperwork or posting requirements), a modest total for this length of operation.
  • Recent 3 years — The past three years show a clean slate: eight inspections and one complaint investigation produced zero Type A or Type B citations, indicating a stronger recent trajectory than the lifetime total alone suggests.
  • Complaints — Two complaint investigations have been filed over the licensed period, resulting in three allegations, none of which were substantiated, unfounded, or otherwise confirmed as valid concerns.
  • Operating tenure — Nearly 29 years of continuous licensure, most recently reflected in consistent inspection cycles through early 2026, reflects a long operating history that gives real weight to the recent clean record.

AI review summary

Reviewers consistently praise Shalom House for compassionate, dignified end-of-life and high-acuity care in a warm, home-like setting, though families should verify practical details on a tour.

Read Full Summary
What reviewers praise
  • Staff & care — Reviewers highlight genuine compassion and thorough, gentle care, with the care manager Pilar specifically praised for skillfully handling complex needs like post-stroke paralysis.
  • Daily life & dignity — Families describe residents receiving a dignified, pain-free experience even in end-of-life circumstances.
  • Atmosphere & grounds — The community is described as having a true home-like feel, down to a resident cat that adds to the welcoming environment.
Worth asking about
  • Value & pricing — Reviews don't address costs or how fees might change if a resident's care needs increase, so families should confirm pricing structure directly.
  • Communication — There is no mention of day-to-day communication practices or family updates, so it's worth asking how the team keeps relatives informed.
