Red flags

2 immediate-jeopardy citations in the most recent inspection cycle

Immediate jeopardy is the most serious finding an inspector can make: a situation likely to cause serious injury, harm, or death.

Cited under the freedom-from-abuse rule

Cited 2 times under F600 (freedom from abuse/neglect) below the actual-harm level — worth asking about on a tour.

$87,712 in federal fines in the last 24 months

1 fine — CMS fines are reserved for verified, serious non-compliance.

60% of nursing staff left within a year

High turnover disrupts continuity of care; the national median is 45%.

No standard inspection in over 2 years

The inspection record here is older than usual — conditions may have changed since.
