In the survey of the facility, AHCA also found that three out of seven residents did not have written documents related to their respective Advance Directives.

Fire/Life/Safety Statement of Deficiencies Dated 11/8/2018
An unannounced survey found that the facility did not properly ensure that the hazardous area was protected as a door was damaged. Another door was not latching properly and it was repaired during the survey.
Complaint Regarding Deficiencies Dated 12/6/2017
Several individuals, including family members of patients, staff, and a private caregiver, reported that there appeared to be a lack of linens for all of the patients, particularly towels and pads.
