Why this verdict

  • Staffing levels are well below research benchmarks for safe care.
  • Cleaner inspection record than most facilities nationally.
  • No federal fines or payment denials in CMS’s 3-year window.
  • Inspection results have improved across recent cycles.

The composite number cleared 77 points, but Recommended is gated: staffing below the Recommended bar. That rule is part of the published method.
