Routine deficiencies are the main driver of this score, with most citations reflecting standard operational and documentation problems in areas such as care planning, recordkeeping and environmental or medication processes. All cited items were corrected and the pattern across inspections suggests an improving trend rather than ongoing enforcement, though the history shows repeated routine findings rather than a thin record.
