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.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 41% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 9 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.
Emerald Care Center Southwest receives highly polarized reviews, with many families reporting severe neglect, poor hygiene, and unresponsive administration. While a subset of reviewers, particularly those involved in clinical training programs, praise the staff and facility environment, numerous long-term care families describe distressing experiences involving soiled bedding, medication errors, and a lack of communication.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was here for a month. This place almost killed her. Harry states We're not perfect? We'll Mr. Harry! When it comes to human lives? You better be perfect.”
“The day we arrived via transport from the hospital, no one at this facility was aware we were coming. No room set up for him, horrible, thin mattresses, broken furniture, no bedding. This place is FILTHY.”
“I was amazed at the level of care she received especially from the therapy department. Every therapist that worked with her was excellent; they pushed her when she needed it, which was a lot but treated her with respect and love.”
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.

Original nursing home datasets
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.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
