5 of 6 metrics below state avg

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. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes. 25m per day ▼ 36% State avg: 39m per day · National avg: 41m per day
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. 54m per day ▼ 7% State avg: 58m 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. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life. 1h 51m per day ▼ 18% State avg: 2h 16m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day
Total Nursing (Weekend) Info 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. 2h 56m per day ▼ 15% State avg: 3h 27m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day
Physical Therapist Info 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. 4m per day ■ Avg State avg: 4m per day · National avg: 4m per day
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. 15m per day ▼ 46% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 29m per day

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 August 19, 2025, found deficiencies related to failure to provide required Notices of Intent to Discharge to residents and to send copies to the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman. Earlier inspections identified issues with resident dignity and abuse prevention, medication management, infection control, environmental safety, and documentation accuracy. Complaint investigations substantiated abuse allegations against a staff member and noted failures in supervision and resident rights, including an incident of resident elopement. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The inspection history shows ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, particularly in resident rights and care coordination, with no clear pattern of sustained improvement.
