What this means for your family

This facility is highly regarded for its compassionate, family-oriented culture and active engagement programs. However, because of past reports regarding staffing ratios and medication errors, we strongly recommend you ask management for their current nurse-to-patient ratios and their specific protocols for medication administration during weekend and night shifts.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff that took care of my mother was the best that we could have asked for. Not only did they care for our mom, they took time out to really minister to us as a family.

Family member · 2023★★★★★

The activities Dept keep the clients involved in crafts for others, card making, praise and worship with visiting youth groups, choirs, quartets, children’s ministries and senior programs.

Family member · 2023★★★★★

While some of the nursing staff are very friendly, the quality of care received is terrible. More often than not there is only one nurse and one assistant on staff at any given time.

Medicare Inspection History

3-year lookback · Medicare 2026

11deficiencies
Well above state avg (3.9)

This facility shows a concerning pattern of recurring deficiencies across all three surveys, particularly in fire safety systems, infection control, and food service operations. The same issues with smoke detectors, sprinkler systems, and food handling have persisted from 2018 through 2021, suggesting ongoing challenges with facility maintenance and safety compliance. While all deficiencies were reportedly corrected, the repeated nature of these fundamental safety violations warrants careful consideration during your visit.
