Why this verdict
- Inspection record is far worse than the national median (deficiency count and severity).
- No federal fines or payment denials in CMS’s 3-year window.
- Inspection results have improved across recent cycles.
The composite number cleared 75 points, but Recommended is gated: inspection record below the Recommended bar. That rule is part of the published method.
