This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 26% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. 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.
Families considering this facility will find a highly praised environment characterized by a clean, odor-free building and a remarkably friendly, professional staff. While most reviewers highlight a warm, family-like atmosphere and excellent physical therapy, one critical review raised serious concerns regarding cleanliness and professionalism.

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.
