Key Review Excerpts
“The staff was especially kind in a time of need.”
“My 81 year old mom was here for rehab and was treated with such kindness. The staff was great! My dad is also handicap and they brought in a recliner in her room so that when he was there he could be comfortable, and when he came they offered him meals so that he could eat with my mom.”
“I was more than pleasantly surprised when I arrived. It smelled so nice and was very clean and cozy. The staff was so caring across all of the departments!”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.

The facility repeatedly struggles with resident safety and accident prevention, abuse and neglect protections, and fire safety systems.

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 4 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.
