Key Review Excerpts
“The administration was wonderful!! They did a great job at communicating with family to help facilitate the necessary information for a smooth discharge. Unfortunately the nursing staff is not very attentive to the patients.”
“I spent 3 months here and loved it! Made a bunch of new friends and had a lot of fun! The Occupational and Physical Therapy staff is the best by far!!!”
“When that business office closes for the day all professionalism leaves the building too. They don’t answer the phones, and they won’t give you an update on your loved ones.”
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.
