Prompted by a complaint

Lakewood Manor Baptist Retirement Community was inspected 13 times between June 24, 2021 and August 5, 2025 by the Virginia Department of Social Services. 7 of those visits ended with violations cited and 6 with none. Across that history VDSS cited 34 violations under 24 distinct standards. 5 inspections were prompted by a complaint.

A violation is a licensing standard - a rule in the Virginia Administrative Code - that the inspector found the facility was not meeting. Each is shown with the evidence the inspector recorded and, where VDSS publishes it, the facility's own plan of correction.

VDSS publishes inspections on a rolling window. 12 of these 13 are still on the state's site; the other 1 has since dropped off it and is reproduced from Assisted Living Magazine's archive of the original VDSS reports.

Evidence
  1. The record for Resident # 1 contained charting notes that documented that the resident had two falls on 5-12-24 and one fall on 5-11-24. However, the resident’s record contained only one fall risk evaluation, dated 5-11-24.
Plan of correction
1. The resident sampled was missing a post fall assessment on May 11, 2024. The resident has since been discharged, but the post fall assessment was completed on July 3, 2024. 2. All residents have the potential to be affected by the deficient practice. A 100% audit of all current Assisted Living and Memory Support residents who have experienced falls was completed to ensure that post fall assessments had been completed. Any assessments within the last year that had not been completed were done. 3. All team members will be educated by July 26, 2024, on when to complete a post fall assessment on a resident: at least annually, when the condition of the resident changes, and after a fall. 4. AL Nurse Manager or designee will audit post fall assessments for their completion once a week for 4 weeks, then twice a month for two months and then quarterly for two quarters.
