What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 2/5
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 · Jul 30, 2021 · F-0684
The facility did not provide treatment and care that follows the doctor's orders and matches the resident's own preferences and goals.
Why it matters: Care that strays from doctor's orders or ignores the resident's wishes can lead to declining health and avoidable harm.
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.

All citations in the current public record (11)
CMS publishes roughly the last three inspection cycles plus recent complaint investigations. Older surveys drop out of the record as new ones are completed.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Kentucky avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 3.12 | 3.71 | 3.95 | bottom 31% in Kentucky; bottom 18% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.48 | 0.74 | 0.69 | bottom 27% in Kentucky; bottom 35% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.61 | 3.27 | 3.50 | bottom 18% in Kentucky; bottom 13% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.16 | 0.53 | 0.48 | bottom 5% in Kentucky; bottom 7% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 29.4 | 46.4 | 45.8 | top 6% in Kentucky; top 13% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 36.4 | 41.8 | 42.9 | top 42% in Kentucky; top 40% 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 3.40, RN 0.53, weekend 2.83. Staffing rating: 2/5.
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: 3/5 · long-stay residents: 4/5 · short-stay residents: 2/5
