What this means for your family

This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are only 79% of the national benchmark, which can affect medication management and response times. 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.

This facility has concerning patterns with families filing complaints that triggered inspections revealing issues with resident protection from abuse and neglect, nursing staffing, and safety hazards. The most recurring problems involve inadequate nursing coverage, fire safety deficiencies, and electrical system violations that have persisted across multiple surveys. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the repeated nature of nursing staffing violations and the serious complaint-driven findings about resident protection raise significant concerns about consistent quality care.
