What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★☆☆☆☆1/5 · 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.
All citations in the current public record (44)
CMS publishes roughly the last three inspection cycles plus recent complaint investigations. Older surveys drop out of the record as new ones are completed.
| Date | Severity | What the facility was cited for |

| Apr 2, 2026 | F · Potential for harm, facility-wide | The facility did not keep its building and grounds safe, functional, clean, and comfortable for residents, staff, and visitors. · from a complaint |
| Apr 2, 2026 | E · Potential for harm, repeated | The facility's activities program was not run by a qualified professional. The person directing recreation and social activities must have proper training or credentials. |

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) | 2.76 | 3.42 | 3.95 | bottom 14% in Indiana; bottom 7% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.58 | 0.62 | 0.69 | top 45% in Indiana; bottom 50% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.66 | 3.01 | 3.50 | bottom 31% in Indiana; bottom 14% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.88 | 0.47 | 0.48 | top 5% in Indiana; top 9% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 61.2 | 45.9 | 45.8 | bottom 11% in Indiana; bottom 15% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 54.5 | 40.4 | 42.9 | bottom 25% in Indiana; bottom 29% 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 3.74, RN 0.79, weekend 3.59. Staffing rating: 1/5.
Self-reported quality measures
