Serious enforcement actions are the dominant driver of this score, with state sanctions and final orders on the facility record. Citations have repeatedly focused on resident care, staff training, admissions, the physical plant, medications and records; while previously cited deficiencies in those areas have been recorded as corrected, the facility’s history of frequent substantiated complaints and enforcement means the trend, though showing fewer recent citation items, remains an improving but still unsettled regulatory picture.
