Whittier Cottage II

Over its nearly five years of operation, Whittier Cottage II has accumulated a mixed compliance record that includes one serious violation affecting resident safety or care (Type A citation) and three administrative or procedural findings (Type B citations). The facility has faced one substantiated allegation out of three total allegations investigated, meaning roughly one-third of investigated concerns were confirmed by the state. Notably, both the Type A citation and the substantiated allegation occurred recently — during a December 2025 complaint investigation — indicating current compliance issues rather than resolved past problems. Given this timing, families should ask the facility to explain the specific nature of the substantiated allegation and what corrective actions have been implemented and verified by the state. For a small 6-bed home, this level of findings suggests attention to operational oversight may be needed, particularly since the recent serious citation involved matters that routine inspections typically examine such as resident care plans or medication management.
