These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 68% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 21 findings, above the CA average of 15.4. 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.
Families seeking rehabilitation services may find excellent physical and occupational therapy, with several reviewers praising the dedication of the rehab team. However, there are serious, recurring allegations regarding severe understaffing, lack of essential supplies like soap and diapers, and significant lapses in medical monitoring and hygiene.

Key Review Excerpts
“Angela and Chris in Physical Therapy pushed my mom with patience, strength, and encouragement when she needed it most. Roi and JP in Occupational Therapy helped her take back pieces of her independence, step by step, with so much dedication and compassion.”
“If I could give this place zero stars I would! This place is horrible! 3 Patients have passed in the last 2-3 months. Any complaints given to RN Or any other on top of RN Don’t do anything. They run out of diapers and restock till family member complains!”
RN hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark. RNs handle complex medical needs and medication, so ask about coverage during your visit.
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.
