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.
Staff turnover reported at 26%
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 14 findings, above the IL average of 12.0. 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.
The Terrace is a nursing home that has received significant praise for its attentive, caring staff and effective physical therapy programs. While many families report feeling reassured by the facility's communication and the visible engagement of the leadership team, there are isolated but serious reports regarding cleanliness and unprofessional conduct by specific staff members. Prospective families should note that while the facility is described as older, it is widely viewed as a supportive environment for long-term and rehabilitative care.

Original nursing home datasets
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.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
