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. Registered Nurse hours are 74% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 30 findings, above the CA average of 15.4. 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 often praise the facility for its recent renovations, cleanliness, and the compassionate nature of the therapy and nursing teams. However, there are serious, recurring allegations regarding severe neglect, understaffing, and inadequate response to call lights, particularly on certain floors.

Key Review Excerpts
“The facility has been completely remodeled and it really shows—everything looks clean, updated, and well taken care of. It feels like a totally different place from what I remember.”
“The staff was extremely courteous and very attentive my mother love the kind personnel and staff their staff seems to do it from their heart and not for paycheck”
“I was originally on the 4th floor and the care was good. However, I was moved to the 1st floor where the care is terrible.”
RN hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark. RNs handle complex medical needs and medication, so ask about coverage during your visit.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

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. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
