What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★☆☆☆☆1/5 · CMS overall rating: 1/5
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, one-off · Mar 7, 2026 · F-0656 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not develop or follow a complete care plan for each resident — the written roadmap covering all of a resident's needs, with measurable goals and timelines.
Why it matters: Without a complete, working care plan, important needs can slip through the cracks and no one is accountable for results.
Severity (J): Inspectors found a situation that put a resident's life or safety in immediate danger, affecting one or a few residents. The facility must fix it immediately — these citations often come with large fines.
Corrected: Mar 13, 2026 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Mar 7, 2026 · F-0678 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide basic life support, such as CPR, before emergency medical help arrived — care that's required when it matches the doctor's orders and the resident's own written wishes.
Why it matters: In a cardiac or breathing emergency, failure to start CPR promptly can be the difference between life and death.
Severity (J): Inspectors found a situation that put a resident's life or safety in immediate danger, affecting one or a few residents. The facility must fix it immediately — these citations often come with large fines.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Kentucky avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 2.86 | 3.71 | 3.95 | bottom 13% in Kentucky; bottom 9% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.40 | 0.74 | 0.69 | bottom 14% in Kentucky; bottom 22% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.58 | 3.27 | 3.50 | bottom 17% in Kentucky; bottom 12% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.37 | 0.53 | 0.48 | bottom 35% in Kentucky; bottom 46% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 86.5 | 46.4 | 45.8 | bottom 1% in Kentucky; bottom 1% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 83.3 | 41.8 | 42.9 | bottom 2% in Kentucky; bottom 4% 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 3.06, RN 0.43, weekend 2.77. Staffing rating: 1/5.
Self-reported quality measures
Note: these ratings are based on data the facility reports about itself to CMS. They are not independently verified by inspectors, and can look better than inspection findings. Give more weight to the inspection results above.
Quality measures rating: 1/5 · long-stay residents: 1/5 · short-stay residents: —/5
