During a change of ownership inspection on April 14–16, 2026, surveyors found the memory care unit failed to treat residents with dignity and respect: staff served meals on disposable cups and paper plates, left one resident waiting 26 minutes for assistance to continue eating after staff abruptly stopped mid-meal, and startled another resident by touching their lips with a utensil without announcement. Surveyors also found the facility failed to immediately report two incidents of suspected sexual abuse documented in February and March 2026, and failed to investigate two injuries of unknown cause to determine whether abuse was involved before notifying the state.

“Based on observation and interview, it was determined the facility failed to ensure residents' right to be treated with dignity and respect for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 2 and 8) and multiple unsampled residents who resided in MC1, one of the facility’s memory care units, and ate their meals in the dining room. Findings include, but are not limited to: The facility was comprised of an assisted living community and two memory care communities: MC1 and MC2. Observations of MC1 dining room were made on 04/14/26 and the following was identified: a. At 11:12 am, Resident 2 was observed sitting at a table in the dining room. The resident had two plates of food: a ham sandwich and a plastic cup of fruit on a ceramic plate, and scrambled eggs and toast on a paper plate. Resident 2 was drinking from a disposable cup. At 11:35 am, Staff 19 (CG) stated that staff used paper plates when residents needed their meals reheated. Staff 19 confirmed the kitchen gave disposable cups for all meals served in the memory care units. This was observed at 11:25 am when Staff 19 was pouring beverages for the lunch meal. A total of seven residents were observed using disposable cups at lunch. b. At 12:34 pm, Staff 19 began assisting Resident 8 with eating his/her lunch. The staff member was quiet and was not observed to talk with the resident while providing assistance. Resident 8 was sitting in a chair with his/her head bent down, keeping his/her eyes closed. Staff 19 stopped assisting Resident 8 at 12:37 pm, when an unsampled resident stated s/he wanted to go back to their apartment. At that time, Staff 19 turned her attention to the unsampled resident and stated, “You have to wait until everyone is finished with their dinner.” The staff member picked up the unsampled resident’s hearing device and stated, “You have to finish dinner.” The resident replied, “I can’t eat, I’m sick to my stomach.” Staff 19 began feeding the unsampled resident who was observed to wince when the utensil would get close to his/her mouth. The unsampled resident said, “I’ve got to go home.” Staff 19 continued to try to feed the resident and then asked, “Are you okay?” The resident replied, “No, I want to go to bed.” Staff 19 told him/her, “Just wait a few minutes for the food to go down”, and gave the resident a bite of food. Staff 19 got up from the dining room table and walked out of the dining room. The unsampled resident was assisted to his/her apartment by Staff 27 (MT) at approximately 1:10 pm. When Staff 19 returned to the dining room, she started cleaning up. Resident 8 had not been assisted to eat by any other staff member and had not attempted to get anything to eat or drink independently since 12:34 pm. At 1:03 pm, Staff 19 took the resident’s plate and put it in the microwave. A paper plate was not used to re-heat the meal as she reported was the process previously. Staff 19 continued to assist Resident 8 to eat at 1:04 pm. Twenty-six minutes passed while the resident sat at the dining room table and waited for someone to continue to assist with the remainder of his/her lunch. At 1:04 pm, when Staff 19 sat next to Resident 8, she did not announce herself. The staff member put food on a fork and touched the resident’s lips with the utensil. Resident 8 was visibly startled and stated, “Oh!” Staff 19 giggled. The need to ensure residents’ right to be treated with dignity and respect was reviewed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (ED), Staff 3 (RN), and Staff 6 (RN Consultant) on 04/16/26 at 3:40 pm. They acknowledged the findings.”
“Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure incidents of abuse or suspected abuse were immediately reported to the local Department office for 1 of 1 sampled resident (# 2) who was reviewed for suspected abuse, and failed to ensure injuries of unknown cause were immediately investigated by the facility, and if the investigation could not reasonably rule out abuse, the local Department office was notified for 1 of 2 sampled residents (# 2) who were reviewed for injuries of unknown cause.

Findings include, but are not limited to: During the survey, sampled and unsampled residents were observed needing assistance and encouragement from staff to initiate, attend, and participate in activities. The facility offered group activities, which many residents attended. Some residents did not attend the activities and, instead, stayed in their rooms, sat in the common areas, or ambulated in the unit. Resident 1, 2, and 8’s service plans were reviewed, and observations were made of the residents. The following was identified: Though the service plan included some information about activity preferences, there was no documented evidence of an evaluation that addressed the following required elements: * Current abilities and skills; * Emotional and social needs and patterns; * Physical abilities and limitations; * Adaptations necessary for the resident to participate; and * Identification of activities for behavioral interventions. On 04/16/26 at 10:16 am, Staff 8 (Activities Lead) verified neither she nor her staff had evaluated the residents who resided in the two memory care units as it pertained to activities. She also confirmed that an individual activity plan had not been developed. The need to develop individualized activity plans that were based on a thorough evaluation of the resident's activity interests, abilities, and needs was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (ED), Staff 3 (RN) and Staff 6 (RN Consultant) on 04/16/26 at 3:40 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

Plain-language summary
During a kitchen inspection on March 3, 2025, inspectors found that the facility failed to respond effectively to resident complaints about meal service, including that food was consistently served cold or lukewarm, meat was tough and dry, and residents' requests to have food cut up were not being honored or documented in care plans. Temperature testing of lunch items confirmed temperatures ranging from 100 to 137 degrees Fahrenheit, which inspectors determined resulted in unpalatable food, and the facility was not using insulated carts for meal delivery. The facility implemented corrective actions including weekly temperature monitoring, monthly resident feedback meetings, new staff training on food safety and handling, and a resident satisfaction survey.
