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 · Nov 15, 2023 · 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 (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: Nov 30, 2023 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Nov 15, 2023 · F-0684 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide treatment and care that follows the doctor's orders and matches the resident's own preferences and goals.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Tennessee avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 2.60 | 3.62 | 3.95 | bottom 4% in Tennessee; bottom 5% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.24 | 0.57 | 0.69 | bottom 2% in Tennessee; bottom 4% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.19 | 3.15 | 3.50 | bottom 1% in Tennessee; bottom 3% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.25 | 0.39 | 0.48 | bottom 26% in Tennessee; bottom 22% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 34.6 | 48.9 | 45.8 | top 14% in Tennessee; top 23% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 57.1 | 43.2 | 42.9 | bottom 25% in Tennessee; bottom 26% 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 3.57, RN 0.33, weekend 3.01. 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: 4/5 · long-stay residents: 4/5 · short-stay residents: 3/5
