In its current inspection cycle, CMS cited the facility for 9 deficiencies; the most serious carries scope/severity F on CMS's A–L scale — CMS's "potential for harm" tier, below actual harm. The most recent federal survey on file is dated 2025-08-28. Citations from earlier inspection cycles appear in the dated timeline below as historical findings, not current ones. This page restates the federal record as published by CMS and draws no conclusion of its own. Federal nursing-home surveys are conducted on a recurring cycle by state survey agencies acting on CMS's behalf, and the figures on this page are compiled from CMS's published provider data, as on file with CMS; the federal record may understate what actually occurred, and inspection findings are point-in-time survey results, not a determination that any specific resident was harmed.
