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 89% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 18 findings, above the MN average of 8.0. 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.
Providence Place receives highly polarized feedback, with a significant divide between glowing praise for the activities department and severe allegations of neglect. While many reviewers, particularly those in short-term rehab, commend the therapy team and the community life coordinator, others report critical failures in basic care, including hygiene, medication management, and responsiveness to resident needs. Families considering this facility should be aware of these starkly inconsistent experiences regarding daily care standards.

Key Review Excerpts
“The community life coordinator, Tia, is amazing!!!”
“My mother was in the facility for 6 days and in that six days it was nothing but problems. My mother laid on urine soaked sheets and got told they had no clean in the facility.”
“The therapy team was very good and helpful.”
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.
