What this means for your family
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are only 95% of the national benchmark, which can affect medication management and response times. The facility has 29 deficiencies, which is above the state average. 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.

The facility repeatedly struggles with medication management, safety hazards, and infection control across multiple surveys from 2022-2025.
