What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★★☆☆3/5 · CMS overall rating: 3/5
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)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · May 6, 2022 · F-0697
The facility did not provide safe and appropriate pain management for a resident who needed it.
Why it matters: Untreated pain causes needless suffering and can lead to depression, poor sleep, and declining health.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.

| Oct 17, 2025 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not immediately notify the resident, their doctor, and a family member when something significant happened — such as an injury, a decline in health, or a room change.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Maryland avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 3.19 | 3.83 | 3.95 | bottom 19% in Maryland; bottom 21% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.65 | 0.83 | 0.69 | bottom 45% in Maryland; top 42% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.98 | 3.43 | 3.50 | bottom 34% in Maryland; bottom 30% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.68 | 0.63 | 0.48 | top 28% in Maryland; top 17% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 47.1 | 40.2 | 45.8 | bottom 32% in Maryland; bottom 44% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 57.7 | 38.7 | 42.9 | bottom 15% in Maryland; bottom 24% 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 3.51, RN 0.71, weekend 3.28. Staffing rating: 2/5.
