Details
Allegation, as written: “The alleged perpetrator (AP) financially exploited the resident when the AP failed to provide the resident's dose of lorazepam (controlled medication).”
“The Minnesota Department of Health determined financial exploitation was not substantiated.”
Summary: MDH looked into an allegation and found: financial exploitation not substantiated.
MDH’s conclusion, as written: “The Minnesota Department of Health determined financial exploitation was not substantiated. There was a preponderance of evidence to support a documentation error occurred involving the resident's dose of lorazepam on the date and time in question and not a drug diversion by the AP.”
Action taken by facility: “The facility conducted an internal investigation, verified all other controlled substance counts were reviewed and accurate, and implemented a new shift to shift count verification form for the medication carts. [...]”
Action taken by MDH: “No further action taken at this time.”
Survey completed September 25, 2025: no correction orders issued.

What these terms mean
MDH: “An evaluation is a process regulated by the division to ensure licensees comply with the laws, rules, and certifications for the type of care and services authorized under their license/certification.”
“An investigation may occur when the division is notified that care and services are not being provided by licensees as required by law. This may include allegations of abuse, neglect, or financial misuse.”
For maltreatment, Minnesota law defines substantiated as “a preponderance of the evidence shows that an act that meets the definition of maltreatment occurred” and inconclusive as “less than a preponderance of evidence to show that maltreatment did or did not occur” (Minn. Stat. 626.5572).
Correction orders, as MDH explains on each state form: “Tag numbers have been assigned to Minnesota State Statutes for Assisted Living Facilities.” “The letter in the left column is used for tracking purposes and reflects the scope and level issued pursuant to 144G.31 subd. 1, 2, and 3.” MDH adds that there is no requirement to submit a plan of correction for violations of Minnesota state statutes.
MDH keeps investigation results for seven years when allegations are substantiated, four years when inconclusive, and three years when unsubstantiated, so the counts cover different periods. This community is licensed for 115 residents; larger communities are evaluated and reported on more often, so read counts with size in mind.

Ask the community whether it accepts Medicaid.

How Lilisity works. The only scores or rankings Lilisity publishes are the Top Communities list and the Excellence Awards, both built from phone-verified resident and family interviews. Communities can pay Lilisity a flat monthly fee to manage their own listing: photos, prices, contact details, and receiving the inquiries families choose to send them. The fee is the same no matter how many families contact them or move in. Senior Living Alliance, which runs Lilisity, offers the same listing to its member communities as part of their membership; members pay SLA for its resident and family interview program. No community pays Lilisity per inquiry, per referral or per move-in. Payment never changes a testimonial, a rating, or the order of search results. The "Nearby Senior Living Alliance communities" box shows member communities only. How we verify testimonials · How we are paid
