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.
Residents who experienced a fall with major injury
Residents with pressure ulcers (bed sores)
Residents who received an antipsychotic medication
Residents who were physically restrained
Residents who lost too much weight
Residents with a urinary tract infection
Residents with a catheter inserted and left in their bladder
Residents with new or worsened bowel or bladder incontinence
Residents who have symptoms of depression

Residents whose ability to walk independently worsened
Source: CMS quality measures, as of June 2026. Rates reflect resident populations that differ between facilities, so compare them alongside staffing and inspection results rather than in isolation.
Staffing levels are one of the strongest predictors of nursing home quality. These figures are reported by the facility to CMS through payroll records, as hours of care available per resident per day.
Very High staffing reliability (83/100)
