What this means for your family
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are only 74% of the national benchmark, which can affect medication management and response times. The facility has 16 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.

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
This facility has a concerning pattern of 80 deficiencies with 34 triggered by family complaints, particularly regarding safety protection and nutrition issues. Recurring problems include food safety and preparation, nursing staffing levels, and resident safety/abuse prevention, with some recent safety violations from July 2025 still lacking correction plans. While most issues are eventually corrected, the high volume of family-reported concerns and repeat violations in critical areas like resident protection suggest ongoing operational challenges that families should carefully evaluate.
