Silver Ridge Healthcare Center: Intruder Breach - NV

Healthcare Facility
Silver Ridge Healthcare Center
Las Vegas, NV  ·  4/5 stars

The first incident happened on December 24, 2025. The intruder entered the kitchen and stole a dietary staff member's cellphone. The administrator later told inspectors she had not been aware of that breach before it happened.

The second came on January 25, 2026. A night shift LPN described it plainly to inspectors on April 24: a man came through the window of the case management office during her shift. The window opened into a room adjacent to the office. He took the LPN's cellphone and keys. No residents were harmed.

A third incident, separate from those two, involved a resident identified in the inspection report as R94, whose cellphone was stolen. The Director of Nursing told inspectors that R94's report had been handled as a grievance. There were no interdisciplinary team notes documenting the incident.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police responded and interviewed R94, who was alert and oriented throughout. R94 declined to press charges but asked for the property back. The facility reimbursed R94 and replaced the cellphone.

After the window entry, staff placed thumb screw clamp locks on windows throughout the building, including resident rooms. Inspectors confirmed the locks were in place during a walkthrough on April 22, 2026. The employee entrance code was changed. Door alarms were tested and functioning. The facility held two all-staff meetings, one on December 29, 2025, and one on January 26, 2026, with sign-in sheets for both.

The night shift LPN who had been working when the intruder came through the window told inspectors she felt safer now.

R94 said the same, once police arrived and staff increased their presence on the floor.

Data source: This article is based on inspection data downloaded directly from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) via Medicare.gov. CMS releases inspection reports in bulk; we publish the findings as documented by state surveyors in the official Form CMS-2567 Statement of Deficiencies.

Plan of correction: The CMS report we receive does not include the facility's plan of correction. Facilities submit plans of correction separately to state survey agencies and those responses may not be reflected in CMS data at the time of publication. The absence of a plan of correction in our data does not mean one was not filed. Readers who want information about corrective steps taken are encouraged to contact the facility directly or their state survey agency.

Corrections may have occurred: Inspection reports reflect conditions observed on the date of the survey. Facilities may have implemented corrections, staffing changes, additional training, or other remediation since the report was issued. We report what CMS provides and encourage readers to seek current information from the facility.

Editorial process: Inspection findings are extracted from CMS source documents and synthesized using AI, reviewed for factual accuracy against the original report by our editorial team.
