Summary generated from this facility's CMS inspection, staffing, and enforcement records. Every statement is derived directly from federal data — nothing is estimated or invented.
These rates come from clinical assessments (the federal Minimum Data Set) that nursing homes are required to submit for every resident, covering long-stay residents over the most recent reporting period. Lower rates are better for every measure shown here. Use them to ask pointed questions on a tour — for example, how the facility prevents falls or limits antipsychotic use.
