AI summary

Across more than 26 years of operation, this small 6-bed home has accumulated 14 Type A findings (the state's most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and 29 Type B administrative findings, with one substantiated allegation confirmed following a 2024 complaint investigation.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Over 26 years of licensure, the lifetime total of 14 Type A and 29 Type B citations is a substantial volume for a 6-bed home, suggesting recurring compliance gaps rather than isolated incidents.
  • Recent 3 years — The visit history shows a marked increase in inspection frequency recently, with 14 dated visits in the past three years alone; one Type A citation and one substantiated allegation trace back to a complaint investigation in July 2024.
  • Complaints — The single complaint investigation on record resulted in a substantiated allegation, a 100% substantiation rate for the one case investigated, which warrants a direct conversation about what was found and corrected.
  • Operating tenure — More than 26 years of continuous licensure shows long-term operating experience, but that tenure does not offset the density of findings accumulated, particularly the Type A count.
Ask the community
  1. 1.What specific issue led to the substantiated allegation from the July 2024 complaint investigation, and what corrective action was taken and verified by the state?
  2. 2.Can you walk through the nature of the Type A citations issued over the years — were they clustered around specific care areas like medication management or supervision?
  3. 3.Given the high number of inspections in the past year, has the home been under a corrective action plan or increased state monitoring, and what is its current status?

AI review summary

Reviews are sharply mixed, with one praising a peaceful, pet-friendly setting and another alleging serious lapses in care and dignity, so families should investigate thoroughly before deciding.

Read Full Summary
What reviewers praise
  • Atmosphere & grounds — One reviewer described the home as a peaceful, safe environment for seniors.
  • Daily life & dignity — A family noted their mother was able to keep her cat with her, adding comfort to her stay.
Worth asking about
  • Staff & care — One review alleges residents were not properly cared for or treated with respect and dignity, which is important to ask about directly.
  • Communication — Given the conflicting experiences described, families should ask current staff and residents' families how care concerns are handled and resolved.
  • Value & pricing — Neither review addresses costs or how fees change with increased care needs, so this should be confirmed on a tour.
