What this means for your family
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are only 59% of the national benchmark, which can affect medication management and response times. The facility has 10 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.
