This home is ranked 7th out of 104 homes in South Carolina.| Staff type | Hours / day | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 1h 29m per day | ▲ 134% State avg: 38m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
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 13m per day | ▲ 20% State avg: 1h 1m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 3h 5m per day | ▲ 39% State avg: 2h 13m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 4h 56m per day | ▲ 48% State avg: 3h 20m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 14m per day | ▲ 180% State avg: 5m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 1h 8m per day | ▲ 183% State avg: 24m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Key information about the people who lead and staff this community.
In South Carolina, the Department of Public Health, Bureau of Healthcare Quality conducts unannounced inspections to ensure care providers meet all health and safety codes.
Inspections are mandatory, regular evaluations conducted by state health departments or regulatory agencies. They ensure the community provides safe, compliant care, covering areas like resident health, staff and management.
Deficiencies indicate regulatory issues. A higher number implies the facility had several areas requiring improvement.
South Carolina average: 12 deficiencies
The most recent inspection on April 25, 2025, identified deficiencies related to individualized care plans for urinary catheter bulb size, wander guard monitoring, pain management documentation, and following physician orders for oxygen therapy. Earlier inspections showed a mix of issues including medication administration errors, food safety violations, and oversight of psychotropic medication use, with one prior report noting immediate jeopardy related to COVID-19 screening that was resolved after corrective actions. Complaint investigations were not listed in the available reports. The main themes across deficiencies involved medication management, care planning, and food safety practices. The facility’s inspection history shows some recurring challenges, but the most recent findings focus more on individualized resident care and documentation.
