What state inspectors found

2 inspections in the last two years · 1 with no deficiencies cited · 1 with findings

The most recent state inspection, conducted November 5-6, 2025, cited this community twice, and both citations concern control of medications rather than paperwork alone. A surveyor watched a certified medication aide give a resident who has Parkinson's disease and Type 2 diabetes two drugs from bottles whose labels did not match the current orders in the electronic medication record - one dose of each was administered incorrectly - and the aide said they did not know the facility's policy for handling a changed physician order, while the director of nursing described waiting for the doctor to send the new order before the record could be corrected. The second citation covered the medication destruction log for June 5 through September 19, 2025, which contained no initials at all for the staff person logging, destroying, or witnessing the destruction of medications, though the facility's own policy requires two signatures. OSDH described both deficiencies as representing the potential for more than minimal harm; the facility's plan of correction was accepted, and a January 5, 2026 offsite paper revisit found them corrected effective December 30, 2025. Set against that, the November 2024 inspection was genuinely clean - the state investigated an abuse allegation and two elopement allegations by observing care, interviewing residents and reviewing records, and cited nothing - and at the 2025 visit the same surveyor found the building clean with no odor, staffing sufficient to meet residents' needs, interior doors and entry properly secured, and staff knocking before entering residents' rooms.

  • In November 2024 the state investigated three complaints - including allegations of abuse and two separate allegations of a resident wandering off - and found nothing wrong at all. 11-20-2024
  • During that 2024 visit, the surveyor watched staff helping residents with everyday needs like bathing, dressing and eating, and providing hands-on resident care. 11-20-2024
  • The 2024 investigation went well beyond a quick walkthrough - the surveyor reviewed care plans, incident reports, staff schedules, nurse notes and maintenance logs, and interviewed residents directly about abuse, and still cited nothing. 11-20-2024
  • At the November 2025 visit the surveyor described the building as clean with a homelike atmosphere and detected no foul odor. 11-06-2025
Show all 8 findings
  • A complaint alleged there were not enough staff to care for residents. The surveyor's own finding was the opposite - there was enough staff on hand to meet residents' needs. 11-06-2025
  • Staff were seen knocking on residents' doors before going in - a small sign of everyday respect for privacy that matters in memory care. 11-06-2025
  • A complaint alleged residents were being involuntarily shut away. The surveyor toured inside and outside and found no resident areas secluded; the salon, maintenance room and medication room were properly locked, and entry to the community requires a code or key fob. 11-06-2025
  • Everything the November 2025 survey found was corrected, and the state confirmed it on a January 2026 follow-up. 11-06-2025

What the state also noted

  • The November 6, 2025 survey cited two deficiencies. First, the medication destruction log for 06/05/25 through 09/19/25 contained no staff initials for the person destroying or witnessing the destruction of medications, contrary to the facility's own policy. Second, one of eight sampled residents received an incorrect dose of two medications (a Parkinson's medication and a diabetes medication) because the pill bottle labels did not match the current physician orders in the medication record.
  • OSDH described those deficiencies as representing 'the potential for more than minimal harm.' Both were corrected effective 12/30/2025 and verified on revisit 01/05/2026.
  • The staff interviews behind the medication citation matter as much as the citation itself. The medication aide who was observed administering the doses said they did not know why the bottle labels and the medication record differed, and did not know the facility's policy for administering medication after a physician order has been changed. The director of nursing said the facility had to wait until the doctor sent the new order before the correction could be made in their system.
  • The destruction log gap was not a single missed entry. The log covered 06/05/25 through 09/19/25 - about three and a half months - and contained no initials for witness #1 or witness #2 in any column, while the facility's own 'Disposal of Medications' policy requires that both employees witnessing the disposal sign.
  • The January 5, 2026 revisit that closed out these citations was an offsite/paper revisit. The state reviewed submitted documentation; no surveyor returned to the building to re-check the medication room, the destruction log, or medication administration in practice.
  • The November 2024 report is filed under a prior facility name, 'Azalea Gardens Memory Care,' at the same address and license number (AL5101). Families may see the community referenced under more than one name.
  • The 2025 investigation report for complaint OK00074671 lists no investigation dates in the header, though the narrative gives an on-site start of 11/05/2025.
