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)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · May 24, 2023 · F-0688
The facility did not provide the care needed to maintain or improve residents' movement and flexibility — such as range-of-motion exercises — leading to avoidable decline.
Why it matters: Without this care, residents can develop stiff, contracted joints and lose the ability to move on their own.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.

| Aug 14, 2025 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not treat residents with dignity and respect, or did not honor their rights to make their own decisions and communicate freely. This is one of the most fundamental resident rights. |

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Massachusetts avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 3.48 | 3.89 | 3.95 | bottom 32% in Massachusetts; bottom 36% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.44 | 0.65 | 0.69 | bottom 20% in Massachusetts; bottom 29% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.21 | 3.51 | 3.50 | bottom 39% in Massachusetts; bottom 43% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.22 | 0.46 | 0.48 | bottom 12% in Massachusetts; bottom 16% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 23.3 | 38.2 | 45.8 | top 8% in Massachusetts; top 5% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 40.0 | 42.6 | 42.9 | top 46% in Massachusetts; top 46% 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 3.56, RN 0.45, weekend 3.29. Staffing rating: 3/5.
