The problems persisted for months despite repeated complaints.

The January 11 incident at Gracelen Care Center sent the resident to the hospital with a hip fracture.

The resident threw off the blanket during the meal, exposing herself to other patients and staff.

The Sumer Sani-Cloth Germicidal Wipes were sitting openly on the aide's cart when inspectors arrived on August 25.

The resident's current wheelchair was missing a brake on one side, though he told inspectors it was "functioning fine" and he was aware he could get a new one.

The August inspection focused on two residents who lacked the mental capacity to speak for themselves.

The contradictory assessments of Resident #1 occurred between May 6 and May 8, 2024.

The woman had been admitted with a below-the-knee amputation, spinal stenosis, anxiety, and depression.

The resident required help transferring from her wheelchair and assistance with clothing removal.

The Licensed Vocational Nurse worked the night of April 3, 2025, and was assigned to Resident 1.

Resident #2 had a documented history of falls and was identified as needing fall prevention interventions.

The expired medication was discovered during a complaint inspection at Avir at Patriot on Gateway North Boulevard.
