Key Review Excerpts
“The staff has horrible attitudes and they don’t give the level of care needed to ensure the patients are comfortable.”
“The facility is very clean and doesn't have the "smell" one often encounters at other facilities. Her room was spacious and had a beautiful view of the neighborhood.”
“It’s bug infested and so nasty. I can’t believe Medicare even allows them to continue to operate.”
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.

This facility has a concerning pattern of recurring food safety violations, with the same food procurement and handling deficiency cited in both 2020 and 2021, suggesting ongoing challenges in kitchen operations. The 12 total deficiencies across three surveys also included issues with fire safety systems, infection control, medication management, and failure to properly report suspected abuse. While all violations were reportedly corrected, the repeated food safety problems indicate potential systemic issues that families should discuss directly with facility management.
