This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 15 findings, above the CT average of 12.8. 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.

Key Review Excerpts
“My sister wasn’t getting adequate treatment when she first got there. Also, her room had no working phone or a call bell. They gave her a bell to ring for assistance and most of the time didn’t hear it.”
“I was here for almost 3 months to learn to walk again, they have some good staff but way over worked and then they have some bad staff that just needs to be let go.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Detailed Medicare record · up to 3-year lookback
This facility shows a concerning pattern of ongoing problems with families having filed multiple complaints that triggered federal investigations. The most recurring issues involve nursing staff adequacy, care planning, and medication management, with deficiencies appearing repeatedly across recent surveys including problems with wound care and family notification requirements. While all violations have correction dates, the persistence of similar issues across multiple years and the nine complaint-triggered deficiencies suggest families should carefully evaluate care quality and ask detailed questions about current staffing and care protocols during any visit.
