AI summary

Shiloh Retreat has accumulated 3 Type A findings and 5 Type B findings over 5.8 years of operation, with the concerning part being that most of this activity, including 5 of the Type A findings, has clustered in the past three years rather than spreading evenly across its history.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Across 5.8 years of licensing, this small 6-bed home has had 3 Type A citations (the state's most severe class, tied to resident safety or care) and 5 Type B citations (administrative findings like paperwork or posting gaps), which is a notable count for a home this size.
  • Recent 3 years — The recent slice shows the activity is not historical: 5 Type A and 5 Type B citations have occurred within the past three years alone, meaning the record has intensified rather than improved recently.
  • Complaints — Complaint investigations (6 total) outnumber routine inspections (5 total), and 6 of the 10 investigated allegations were substantiated, a substantiation rate of about 60%, indicating that most complaints brought to the state's attention were found to have merit.
  • Severity — With Type A findings continuing into the most recent three-year window alongside a majority-substantiated complaint pattern, this is a record where the specifics of what was found and corrected are worth understanding directly from the community.
Ask the community
  1. 1.Can you walk through what each of the recent Type A citations involved and what corrective actions were taken and verified by the state?
  2. 2.Which categories of allegations were substantiated, and what changes were made to prevent recurrence?
  3. 3.Given the cluster of findings in the past three years, what specific staffing, training, or care-plan changes has the community made since then?

AI review summary

Families consistently praise Shiloh Retreat's attentive, low-ratio care and homelike environment, though the community's small size means families should verify staffing depth for higher-need situations.

Read Full Summary
What reviewers praise
  • Staff & care — Reviewers repeatedly highlight attentive, hands-on caregivers and cite a much better staff-to-resident ratio than larger assisted living facilities.
  • Communication — Families describe management as consistently responsive and on top of updates about their loved ones.
  • Cleanliness & maintenance — The home is described as clean, comfortable, and notably odor-free, which families call out as an important detail of daily life.
  • Atmosphere & grounds — Multiple reviewers say the residential home setting feels like a genuine home rather than an institutional facility.
  • Dining — At least one family member notes that meals have been well-received by their parent living there.
Worth asking about
  • Value & pricing — Reviews do not mention costs or fee structures, so families should ask directly about pricing and how it changes as care needs increase.
  • Staff & care — Given the home's small size, families should confirm overnight and weekend staffing levels to ensure consistent coverage.
