This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 10 findings, above the OK average of 7.2. 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.
Callaway Nursing Home receives high praise for the compassion and dedication of its nursing staff, particularly in end-of-life care. However, recent feedback indicates significant concerns regarding administrative leadership and the quality of care provided to residents.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
