Summary

The facility failed to employ a qualified full-time social worker as required for a facility licensed for more than 120 beds. At the time of review, the facility had 122 available beds, but the acting social services director did not possess a bachelor's degree or the necessary qualifications for the position. The previous social service director left employment on 11/3/2025, and the current acting director assumed the role the same day without meeting the qualification requirements. Two new social service staff were hired on 12/15/2025, but there was no indication that a qualified social worker was in place during the period reviewed. These findings were confirmed through interviews and review of facility records.
