What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★★★★5/5 · CMS overall rating: 4/5
⚠ The most recent standard health inspection was more than 2 years ago — conditions may have changed.
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 18, 2023 · F-0697

Why it matters: Untreated pain causes needless suffering and can lead to depression, poor sleep, and declining health.

| Registered Nurse hours | 0.18 | 0.63 | 0.69 | bottom 4% in Illinois; bottom 2% in the U.S. |
