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. 33m per day ▼ 25% State avg: 44m 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. 55m per day ▲ 17% State avg: 47m 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 December 4, 2025, found deficiencies related to the facility’s failure to refund a resident’s positive account balance within 30 days of discharge and multiple issues identified during the annual survey, including dining dignity, grievance handling, personal funds management, sanitation, care planning, and respiratory treatment orders. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving resident care, communication, infection control, and quality assurance processes, with several complaint investigations substantiating failures in timely family notification, treatment of infections, and care planning. Inspectors cited repeated issues with maintaining resident dignity, following physician orders, and ensuring proper documentation and environmental cleanliness. Complaint investigations were mostly substantiated, including a case where delayed lab work led to sepsis and hospitalization. The inspection history indicates ongoing challenges with compliance, with no clear trend of sustained improvement.
