What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · 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)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Oct 27, 2023 · F-0692 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide enough food and fluids to keep residents healthy, such as preventing unplanned weight loss or dehydration.
Why it matters: Malnutrition and dehydration can quickly weaken a resident and lead to serious complications.
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: Nov 13, 2023 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Sep 7, 2022 · F-0677
The facility did not provide the help residents need with basic daily activities — like bathing, dressing, eating, and using the bathroom — for residents who cannot do these things on their own.
Why it matters: Residents who don't get this help can suffer poor hygiene, skin breakdown, weight loss, and a loss of dignity.
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 5, 2022 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 2.60 | 3.45 | 3.95 | bottom 6% in Ohio; bottom 5% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.26 | 0.60 | 0.69 | bottom 2% in Ohio; bottom 6% in the U.S. |

| RN turnover (%) | 66.7 | 43.9 | 42.9 | bottom 18% in Ohio; bottom 15% 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 3.04, RN 0.31, weekend 2.72. Staffing rating: 1/5.
