Accura Healthcare of Stanton has a middle-range Medicare overall rating. Strengths include compassionate, family-like staff. Some reviewers note concerns about failure to administer scheduled medication. Review the health-inspection, staffing, and quality-measure components separately, then visit in person.
Accura Healthcare of Stanton presents a stark contrast in experiences, with one recent review highlighting severe, state-investigated failures in medication management that resulted in tragic outcomes. While other reviewers offer high praise for the staff's compassion and attentiveness, the lack of detail in those positive reviews makes it difficult to verify the current quality of care. Families should exercise extreme caution and conduct thorough independent research given the gravity of the reported medical neglect.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mother in law was not getting her pain medication as scheduled for 5 weeks. The State did investigate & it was founded.”
“The staff felt like family with genuine care and compassion. Never once felt rushed, hurried, or brushed off when I had a question or concern.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
