Inspection Score Info A composite 0–100 score combining this facility's inspections, citations, complaints, and enforcement actions relative to the Pennsylvania state average. The score below shows how many points this facility sits above or below the typical Pennsylvania assisted living residence score (the benchmark); higher is better.

Rank #274 / 460 in Pennsylvania Inspection Score — State benchmarked This home is ranked 274th out of 460 homes in Pennsylvania.

Letter grade B-. 2 points below the Pennsylvania average for assisted living residences (83/100)

Waivers Info A higher number of waivers may indicate the facility relies on staff who don't fully meet standard credential requirements. A lower number may suggest the facility meets staffing qualification standards without exemptions.

This Facility PA Average vs. PA Avg
  • Waivers are Pennsylvania Department of Health exemptions that let a facility operate outside required staffing ratios or staff credential rules. A higher count can signal that the facility regularly relies on exceptions — for example, fewer nursing hours per resident or staff who don't fully meet qualification standards — which may affect day-to-day care.
