The facility had not had an administrator since 07/16/2025.

interview on 09/04/2025 at 3:32 PM, the AIT said the previous Administrator was terminated on 7/16/2025.
She stated the facility currently did not have an administrator. The AIT stated she had not gotten a formal offer for the administrator position but that she will submit her hours in 9 days to the licensing department and then she can apply to take the test. During an interview on 09/04/2025 at 3:40 PM, the MP Dir stated

this time, but the AIT is acting in that role and that the former ADM was fired but not sure when his last day was. The MP Dir stated they are actively looking for an Administrator.
