What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)

Health inspection rating: ★★★★☆4/5 · CMS overall rating: 5/5

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.

All citations in the current public record (5)

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

Date	Severity	What the facility was cited for
Aug 1, 2025	D · Potential for harm, one-off	The facility did not safely and appropriately administer IV fluids (fluids given through a vein) for residents who needed them.
May 9, 2024	F · Potential for harm, facility-wide	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.
May 9, 2024	F · Potential for harm, facility-wide	The facility did not dispose of garbage and refuse properly.
Jan 26, 2023	D · Potential for harm, one-off	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.
Jan 26, 2023	B · Minimal risk, repeated	The facility did not enter each resident's assessment information into the required format and send it to the state within 7 days of completing the assessment, as the rules require.

Inspection trend by year

Citations from standard inspections decreased between the last two inspection cycles (2 → 1).

Year	Citations	Worst severity that year
2023	2	D
2024	2	F
2025	1	D

Counts reflect the current CMS public record (~3 inspection cycles plus complaint investigations); years with no surveys show no row. Inspection frequency varies, so compare severity as well as counts.

Fines and enforcement (last 3 years)

No fines or payment denials in the published 3-year window.

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

Measure	This facility	North Carolina avg	U.S. avg	Where it stands
Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day)	4.44	4.01	3.95	top 20% in North Carolina; top 25% in the U.S.
Registered Nurse hours	0.54	0.64	0.69	top 49% in North Carolina; bottom 44% in the U.S.
Weekend total nurse staffing	4.12	3.56	3.50	top 16% in North Carolina; top 20% in the U.S.
Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted)	0.41	0.41	0.48	top 34% in North Carolina; top 47% in the U.S.
Total nursing staff turnover (%)	50.0	49.0	45.8	bottom 48% in North Carolina; bottom 38% in the U.S.
RN turnover (%)	46.2	45.7	42.9	bottom 48% in North Carolina; bottom 42% 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 4.42, RN 0.54, weekend 4.10. Staffing rating: 4/5.

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: 5/5 · long-stay residents: 5/5 · short-stay residents: 5/5
