What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 2/5
The health inspection star above is graded on a curve within each state — a set share of each state's facilities gets each star level — so a facility can have few citations and still rate 2–3 stars if others in its state did even better. The overall rating combines that inspection score with staffing and self-reported quality measures.
Most serious findings (actual harm or immediate jeopardy)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, facility-wide · Sep 6, 2024 · F-0812 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not get its food from approved, safe sources, or did not store, prepare, and serve food according to professional food safety standards.
Why it matters: Unsafe food handling is one of the most common causes of food poisoning, which can be dangerous for frail residents.
Severity (L): A life-threatening or extremely dangerous situation existed throughout the facility. The single most serious citation CMS can issue.
Corrected: Oct 1, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Sep 6, 2024 · F-0686
The facility did not provide proper care for pressure ulcers (bedsores) or did not do enough to prevent new ones from forming. Bedsores develop when residents stay in one position too long without help moving.
Why it matters: Bedsores are painful, can become deeply infected, and in serious cases can be life-threatening.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.
Corrected: Oct 1, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

CMS publishes roughly the last three inspection cycles plus recent complaint investigations. Older surveys drop out of the record as new ones are completed.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Rhode Island avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 4.15 | 3.88 | 3.95 | top 26% in Rhode Island; top 34% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.96 | 0.80 | 0.69 | top 28% in Rhode Island; top 18% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.83 | 3.48 | 3.50 | top 26% in Rhode Island; top 28% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.62 | 0.55 | 0.48 | top 35% in Rhode Island; top 21% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 26.0 | 40.6 | 45.8 | top 9% in Rhode Island; top 8% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 27.8 | 37.9 | 42.9 | top 26% in Rhode Island; top 25% in the U.S. |
Hours are per resident per day, case-mix adjusted by CMS so facilities caring for sicker residents can be compared fairly (same basis as the CMS staffing star). "Top X%" means better than most facilities: more staffing hours, or lower turnover. Raw (unadjusted) reported hours: total 3.35, RN 0.77, weekend 3.08. Staffing rating: 4/5.
Self-reported quality measures
