Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans.

LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care. 1h 10m per day ▲ 30% State avg: 54m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility.

Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

  • The most recent inspection on June 6, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies related to residents' rights, grievance resolution, discharge notifications, qualified personnel, respiratory and pain management, pharmacy records, and the environment, with several issues not corrected on revisit. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of similar deficiencies involving resident rights, staffing, safe environment, care quality, and regulatory compliance, with many issues recurring despite revisits. Inspectors frequently cited problems in resident rights communication, staffing sufficiency, infection control, and medication management. Complaint investigations were conducted but were unsubstantiated or did not result in additional deficiencies. The overall trend indicates persistent challenges with compliance, as deficiencies have continued over time without clear improvement.
