What this means for your family

Due to the lack of detailed positive feedback and specific reports of unprofessional staff behavior, we advise extreme caution. We recommend conducting an unannounced visit and speaking directly with current residents and their families to verify the quality of care before making any decisions.

This facility has significant ongoing quality concerns, with families filing multiple complaints that led to federal investigations. The most recurring problems involve medication management, resident assessment and care planning, and infection control practices. Recent issues in 2024-2026 include uncorrected reporting failures for suspected abuse or neglect, inadequate nursing staffing, poor pain management, and pharmaceutical service deficiencies. While the facility has correction dates for most violations, the pattern of repeated deficiencies across multiple surveys suggests persistent operational challenges families should carefully evaluate.
