Red flags
Special Focus Facility candidate
CMS lists this facility as a candidate for its Special Focus program for persistently poor inspection performance.
1 immediate-jeopardy citation 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 1 time under F600 (freedom from abuse/neglect) below the actual-harm level — worth asking about on a tour.
$227,850 in federal fines in the last 24 months
2 fines — CMS fines are reserved for verified, serious non-compliance.
63% of nursing staff left within a year
High turnover disrupts continuity of care; the national median is 45%.
