What this means for your family
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are only 71% of the national benchmark, which can affect medication management and response times. The facility has 10 deficiencies, which is above the state average. 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.

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
This facility shows persistent patterns of deficiencies across all three surveys, with recurring issues in fire safety, medication management, and care planning. Fire safety violations appear in every survey including problems with sprinkler systems, exits, and smoke barriers, while medication errors and care plan deficiencies also persist across multiple inspections. One family filed a complaint regarding discharge planning that resulted in a deficiency citation, and while the facility reports correcting violations, the repetitive nature of similar issues suggests ongoing compliance challenges.
