These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
Staff turnover reported at 24%
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 70% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 11 findings, above the MA average of 8.9. 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.
Families should exercise extreme caution, as recent reviews frequently report severe issues with hygiene, including strong odors of urine and unclean facilities. While some individual staff members have been praised for kindness, there are recurring, serious allegations regarding patient neglect, medication errors, and inadequate responsiveness to medical needs.

Key Review Excerpts
“All I can say is that one of the staff was being so nice to my dad. His name is David. He wasn't actually working for the floor my dad was living on. He was from a different floor but he was covering the desk. He is a really nice guy.”
“He said the food was horrid. I mean he went on about how Nothing was edible, nothing. Never once did he get anything warm to eat plus some of the food u could not tell what it was supposed to be.”
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.

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.
