Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across almost 31 years licensed as an assisted living, residential care, and memory care home, Dewey Home has one lifetime Type A finding and zero Type B (administrative) citations, a light footprint over such a long operating period.
- Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections, running from 2021 through October 2025, turned up no Type A or Type B citations at all, indicating a clean and stable recent stretch following the earlier finding.
- Operating tenure — More than 30 years of continuous licensure gives this record real weight — a long history with only a single serious finding suggests consistent day-to-day operation rather than a pattern of concern.
- Severity — With zero complaint investigations and zero substantiated allegations on file, there is no indication of an unresolved or ongoing issue tied to the one Type A citation; the absence of citations in the last three inspection cycles points to sustained correction.
