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 73 points, but Recommended is gated: inspection record below the Recommended bar. That rule is part of the published method.
