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)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Mar 5, 2025 · F-0626 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not let a resident return after a hospital stay or approved leave that lasted longer than the facility's bed-hold policy allowed. Residents generally have the right to come back to the next available bed.
Why it matters: Being refused readmission can leave a hospitalized resident with nowhere to go and separate them from the place they call home.
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: Mar 31, 2025 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Mar 5, 2025 · F-0675 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not honor residents' individual preferences, choices, values, and beliefs in their daily life and care.
Why it matters: Ignoring who a resident is as a person diminishes their dignity and quality of life.
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: Mar 31, 2025 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Dec 21, 2023 · 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.

▲ Actual harm, one-off · Feb 11, 2025 · F-0600 · triggered by a complaint
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 (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.
Corrected: Mar 31, 2025 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Feb 11, 2025 · F-0686 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide proper care for pressure ulcers (bedsores) or did not do enough to prevent new ones from forming. Bedsores develop when residents stay in one position too long without help moving.
Why it matters: Bedsores are painful, can become deeply infected, and in serious cases can be life-threatening.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.

▲ Actual harm, one-off · Feb 11, 2025 · F-0692 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide enough food and fluids to keep residents healthy, such as preventing unplanned weight loss or dehydration.
Why it matters: Malnutrition and dehydration can quickly weaken a resident and lead to serious complications.

Why it matters: Untreated pain causes needless suffering and can lead to depression, poor sleep, and declining health.

| Date | Severity | What the facility was cited for |
|---|---|---|
| Jun 15, 2026 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility used physical restraints — devices that limit a resident's movement — when they weren't needed for medical treatment. · from a complaint |
| Apr 22, 2026 | F · Potential for harm, facility-wide | The facility did not employ enough qualified food and nutrition staff, including a qualified dietician, to properly run its food service. |

| Apr 22, 2026 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility allowed residents to lose the ability to do daily activities — like bathing, dressing, and eating — when there was no medical reason for the decline. Good care helps residents keep the abilities they have. |

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Kansas avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 4.07 | 4.58 | 3.95 | bottom 36% in Kansas; top 37% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.26 | 0.81 | 0.69 | bottom 1% in Kansas; bottom 6% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.55 | 4.05 | 3.50 | bottom 35% in Kansas; top 40% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.13 | 0.49 | 0.48 | bottom 1% in Kansas; bottom 3% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 78.9 | 48.1 | 45.8 | bottom 4% in Kansas; bottom 2% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 88.2 | 42.0 | 42.9 | bottom 4% in Kansas; bottom 2% 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 3.63, RN 0.23, weekend 3.16. Staffing rating: 1/5.
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: 3/5
