This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 88% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 9 findings, above the IN average of 7.6. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.

Key Review Excerpts
“My great grandmother was placed under their care on 12/12/23 after 6pm , she was transferred from the hospital to this facility. I came in on 12/13/23 early afternoon to find that she was sitting in a puddle of her own urine, no pants & no depend on!”
“My stepdad came in for rehab in a lot of pain and one of the nurses refused to give him his medication as prescribed by doctor. He was crying in pain and she told him to shut up! And that he was a baby.”
“The smell is very, very unpleasant & lingers as you leave. Unfortunately, I can't afford to just move him around.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
