AI summary

Nearly 34 years of licensed operation at The Ivy Home show zero Type A citations, with only administrative (Type B) findings on record and none in the past three years.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Across almost 34 years of operation, The Ivy Home has never received a Type A citation, the most severe class tied to resident safety or care, only lower-level Type B administrative findings covering things like paperwork or minor procedural gaps.
  • Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections turned up no citations of any kind, suggesting the record has stayed clean or even tightened up in recent years.
  • Operating tenure — With nearly 34 years of continuous licensure, this is a long operating history with a consistently low rate of findings, which adds confidence to the overall picture.
  • Complaints — Only one complaint investigation has been filed in the community's entire licensed history, and the allegation was unsubstantiated, meaning investigators did not find enough evidence to confirm it.

What reviewers praise
  • Value & pricing — Reviewers note that pricing bundles meals, housekeeping, transportation to medical appointments, medication management, and incontinence supplies into one rate.
  • Cleanliness & maintenance — The home is described as an older but clean property with upgraded, functional bathrooms and nice front and back yards.
  • Staff & care — Staff are described as caring, and the community offers in-room amenities like cable and personal phone hookups for added comfort.
Worth asking about
  • Daily life & dignity — One visitor observed residents appeared to need a higher level of care than their family member and were mostly sitting and watching TV, so families should ask how activities and engagement are structured for varying care needs.
  • Communication — A prospective family found the main point of contact unavailable during their visit, so it's worth confirming staff availability and responsiveness for tours and ongoing communication.
