What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★★☆☆3/5 · CMS overall rating: 4/5
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)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Sep 16, 2022 · F-0580
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. Families and doctors are entitled to know right away.
Why it matters: A family could learn about a serious injury or decline days later, after the chance to act has passed.
Severity (J): Inspectors found a situation that put a resident's life or safety in immediate danger, affecting one or a few residents. The facility must fix it immediately — these citations often come with large fines.
Corrected: Oct 18, 2022 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Sep 16, 2022 · F-0600
The facility did not protect residents from abuse or neglect. This covers physical, mental, and sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect, by anyone — staff, other residents, or visitors.
Why it matters: Abuse and neglect cause direct physical and emotional harm and are among the most serious failures a nursing home can have.
Severity (J): Inspectors found a situation that put a resident's life or safety in immediate danger, affecting one or a few residents. The facility must fix it immediately — these citations often come with large fines.
Corrected: Oct 18, 2022 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Sep 16, 2022 · F-0835
The facility was not managed in a way that uses its money, staff, and resources effectively and efficiently to care for residents.
Why it matters: Poor administration often shows up as understaffing, supply shortages, and care problems across the whole facility.
Severity (J): Inspectors found a situation that put a resident's life or safety in immediate danger, affecting one or a few residents. The facility must fix it immediately — these citations often come with large fines.
Corrected: Oct 18, 2022 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Sep 16, 2022 · F-0867
The facility did not run an ongoing quality assurance committee that reviews care problems and creates plans to fix them.
Why it matters: Without a working quality program, the same care problems tend to repeat instead of getting fixed.
Severity (J): Inspectors found a situation that put a resident's life or safety in immediate danger, affecting one or a few residents. The facility must fix it immediately — these citations often come with large fines.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Florida avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 3.77 | 4.03 | 3.95 | bottom 40% in Florida; top 50% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.42 | 0.76 | 0.69 | bottom 11% in Florida; bottom 25% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.40 | 3.68 | 3.50 | bottom 33% in Florida; top 48% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.11 | 0.53 | 0.48 | bottom 1% in Florida; bottom 2% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 48.0 | 41.4 | 45.8 | bottom 33% in Florida; bottom 42% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 58.8 | 46.0 | 42.9 | bottom 26% in Florida; bottom 23% 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 3.67, RN 0.40, weekend 3.30. Staffing rating: 2/5.
