What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 3/5
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 · Nov 10, 2025 · F-0689 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not keep the environment free of accident hazards, or did not provide enough supervision to prevent accidents like falls.
Why it matters: This is one of the most common citations and directly relates to falls and injuries, which can be devastating for older adults.
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 19, 2025 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Aug 1, 2024 · F-0690 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide appropriate care related to bladder and bowel needs — including care for residents who use catheters and steps to prevent urinary tract infections.
Why it matters: Poor continence and catheter care leads to infections, skin breakdown, and 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: Aug 22, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Indiana avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 2.97 | 3.42 | 3.95 | bottom 26% in Indiana; bottom 13% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.49 | 0.62 | 0.69 | bottom 35% in Indiana; bottom 36% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.58 | 3.01 | 3.50 | bottom 23% in Indiana; bottom 12% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.44 | 0.47 | 0.48 | top 44% in Indiana; top 41% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 38.5 | 45.9 | 45.8 | top 28% in Indiana; top 32% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 38.1 | 40.4 | 42.9 | top 48% in Indiana; top 44% 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 3.47, RN 0.57, weekend 3.02. Staffing rating: 2/5.
Self-reported quality measures
