This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. 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.

Key Review Excerpts
“The Physical Therapy Department is outstanding and was able to get my mother back to her baseline after she had suffered a stroke.”
“I was in a coma, on a vent, couldn’t move, nothin'. I was in bed for over a year. Thought I’d never leave. But the people there… they saved my life.”
“They never answer the phone, none of the nurses gives out their names. I had to call the police for a welfare check I called 50 times within 2 hours and not a single person picked up the phone.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Original nursing home datasets
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.
