    State’s findings

    Alleged Victim (AV) service plan dated on or about July 11, 2024, indicates AV has history of a brain aneurysm, forgets many things including recent events, is able to make desires and needs known, is unable to make big decision, staff must contact POA for important matters, has history of falls prior to moving to the facility, ambulates with walker independently, sometimes forgets about h/h walker and staff to remind AV to use walker for safety. AV has a VP Shunt, per AV family, if AV falls in the future, call 911 immediately to make sure there is no damage to AV's VP shunt from the fall. On or about August 1, 2024, AV was found lying on floor by bathroom on h/h stomach. AV reported "I fell on my way to the bathroom last night" and reported back pain and hip pain. AV refused 911. AV continued to complain of pain from approximately August 1, 2024, to August 6, 2024. On or about August 6, 2024, AV had an appointment and Xray’s. AV was diagnosed with a spinal fracture and UTI. The facility failed to follow the service plan, by not calling 911 immediately after a AV's fall to make sure there is no damage to AV's VP shunt, and not contacting AV POA for important matters, and letting AV refuse staff to call 911, as AV is unable to make big decision, resulting in AV not receiving timely medical attention, and being in unreasonable discomfort, which is a violation of resident’s rights is neglect of care and constitutes abuse.

ODHS lists only substantiated violations: “either a substantiated instance of abuse or a licensing violation. Open investigations and complaints that are being appealed by the provider are not listed.” Oregon counts neglect as a form of abuse; see the state’s definitions of abuse. Each violation shows the level ODHS gives it, in the state’s words (for example “2 - Minor harm or potential for moderate harm”), and any fine ODHS assessed. Inspection citations show the state’s severity level and scope, and the date ODHS recorded the problem as corrected when it lists one. Rule names come from the Oregon Administrative Rules. ODHS: “Formal regulatory actions can range from a condition placed upon a license due to non-compliance or a notice to revoke a license.” This community is licensed for 19 residents; larger communities are inspected and reported on more often, so read counts with size in mind.

Emergency and natural hazard riskFEMA overall risk relatively high; outside FEMA's high-risk flood areas

Public hazard maps for this location. Ask the community about its emergency plan, its generator and where residents would go in an evacuation.

Flood zone
FEMA has a flood map for this community (effective May 4, 1989), but it is not in FEMA's digital flood map data, so the zone at this address could not be read. FEMA's Map Service Center has the map. (FEMA flood map)
Wildfire risk to homes
In Fossil, OR, risk to homes is greater than 88% of communities in Oregon and 97% of communities nationwide. USDA rates the whole town or city, not this address. (USDA Forest Service, Wildfire Risk to Communities, April 2026)
FEMA National Risk Index
Overall: relatively high. By hazard: inland flooding relatively high, wildfire relatively high, tornado very low, heat wave very low, earthquake relatively low. These are FEMA’s ratings for the census tract, compared with tracts nationwide. (FEMA, December 2025)

A flood zone describes the map at this point, not the building's elevation. In an emergency, follow the local emergency management agency.

Report a wrong fact

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
