The Residence at Dean

The Residence at Dean has had significant compliance issues during its short operating history since licensing in September 2022, but shows meaningful improvement in recent years. Over the facility's 3.8 years of operation, state inspectors documented 6 Type A citations (serious violations affecting resident safety or care) and 13 Type B citations (administrative or non-serious findings), along with one complaint investigation that resulted in no substantiated allegations. However, all of the Type A citations appear to stem from earlier inspection cycles, as the past three years show no serious violations from complaint investigations, suggesting the 5-bed community has addressed its initial compliance challenges. The recent record indicates stronger performance in areas like medication management and resident care plans, which are core focus areas of routine state oversight. Given the facility's limited operating tenure with only three inspection cycles completed, families should ask management directly about what specific corrective actions were implemented to resolve the earlier serious findings and how those improvements are being sustained.
