Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs 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 7m per day ▲ 12% State avg: 1h 0m 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.

Angela Stinnett
Please do not let your loved one go here. Worst mistake you will ever make. Starting from the administrator which he has no business in that position to the director of nursing and again, she is just laughable, and keep going on down to the kitchen staff. They treat the residents like trash and the family members even worse. When my family member need someone during the night now one could even be found. The CNA's and nurses would actually hide so they didn't have to work and help the residents. I'm so glad my family member has gotten out of there. They withheld his medication and left him laying in his own feces because he is not mobile. It's horrible.What do you like most about living here? Answer: His roommate was always helpful. Are there enough caregivers to handle the residents' needs, especially during emergencies? Answer: Yes Are the common areas pleasant and comfortable for socializing or relaxing? Answer: No How would you rate the quality and variety of the meals? (1-5) Answer: 1 Are special diets handled well? Answer: No Is the dining schedule flexible enough to meet your preferences? Answer: No How do you feel about the level of social interaction available with other residents? Answer: None except roommate which was good. How was the units offered in this community? Answer: N/A Do you feel safe living in this community? Answer: No How well do you think the community handles emergencies or unexpected events? Answer: Not well at all. As stated above, during the night on numerous occasions there were not any employees to be found in the entire home. Are there any hidden fees or unexpected charges? Answer: N/A Would you recommend this community to others looking for senior living options? Answer: Absolutely Not Is there anything you wish you knew before moving in? Answer: Yes, I wish I would have been told how terrible they would treat my family member beforehand. --
