Staff type Hours / Day / Resident vs state avg
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 1m per day ▲ 17% State avg: 52m 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.

RN (Weekend) Info 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. 44m per day ▲ 91% State avg: 23m per day · National avg: 29m per day

The most recent inspection on December 9, 2025, identified a deficiency related to accident hazards and supervision during resident transfers, following an incident where a resident sustained a fracture. Earlier inspections showed a mix of results, including no deficiencies in March 2025 but several issues in late 2023 and 2022 involving infection control, medication management, documentation, and food safety. Inspectors cited recurring concerns with proper disinfection practices, timely completion of resident assessments, medication storage, and care planning. Complaint investigations in December 2023 noted multiple deficiencies related to medication self-administration, advanced directives, MDS transmission, and infection control, with substantiation status not explicitly stated. The inspection history suggests some improvement since 2022, but certain issues, particularly around resident safety and infection control, have persisted intermittently.
