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. 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 one thing that shocked me was that the food was very good. It was never just slopped on the plate. The rooms are nice & roomy and you don't have to share a room.”
“It’s unfortunate, that the facility doesn’t have enough staff to attend seniors with a good service , these people are paying a great amount of money per month to have a decent service , there are nurses that have no intentions to help them.”
“The nurses that are traveling nurses are great! Kind, efficient, no bad treatment. Often the ones who work there are rude to the patient.”

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.
