Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 2/5 · how star ratings work →
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 quality measures from resident assessments and claims.
▲ Immediate jeopardy, isolated · Sep 21, 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): Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety was cited. The scope was isolated: limited residents, staff, or locations were affected. Scope describes the extent of the deficiency, not whether it happened on previous inspections.
Corrected: Oct 6, 2023 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, isolated · Sep 21, 2023 · F-0607 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not develop and follow policies and procedures to prevent abuse, neglect, and theft. These written safeguards are the foundation of resident protection.
Why it matters: Without working prevention policies, mistreatment is more likely to happen and less likely to be caught.
Severity (J): Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety was cited. The scope was isolated: limited residents, staff, or locations were affected. Scope describes the extent of the deficiency, not whether it happened on previous inspections.
Corrected: Oct 6, 2023 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, isolated · Sep 21, 2023 · F-0867 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not run an ongoing quality assurance committee that reviews care problems and creates plans to fix them.
Why it matters: Without a working quality program, the same care problems tend to repeat instead of getting fixed.
Severity (J): Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety was cited. The scope was isolated: limited residents, staff, or locations were affected. Scope describes the extent of the deficiency, not whether it happened on previous inspections.
Corrected: Oct 6, 2023 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, isolated · May 17, 2024 · F-0624 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not properly prepare residents for a safe transfer or discharge. Before a resident leaves, the facility must get them ready and make sure the move is safe and orderly.
Why it matters: An unprepared discharge can send a resident somewhere unsafe or without the care arrangements they need.
Severity (G): Actual harm was cited, below immediate jeopardy. The scope was isolated: limited residents, staff, or locations were affected. Scope describes the extent of the deficiency, not whether it happened on previous inspections.
Corrected: Jun 17, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, isolated · May 17, 2024 · F-0660 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not properly plan a resident's discharge to meet the resident's goals and needs after leaving.
Why it matters: Poor discharge planning can send a resident home or elsewhere without the support, equipment, or follow-up care they need.
Severity (G): Actual harm was cited, below immediate jeopardy. The scope was isolated: limited residents, staff, or locations were affected. Scope describes the extent of the deficiency, not whether it happened on previous inspections.

| Measure | This facility | Florida avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 3.93 | 4.03 | 3.95 | top 45% in Florida; top 43% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.40 | 0.76 | 0.69 | bottom 8% in Florida; bottom 22% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.61 | 3.68 | 3.50 | top 43% in Florida; top 37% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.18 | 0.53 | 0.48 | bottom 4% in Florida; bottom 9% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 65.4 | 41.4 | 45.8 | bottom 4% in Florida; bottom 9% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 71.4 | 46.0 | 42.9 | bottom 11% in Florida; bottom 11% in the U.S. |
Hours are per resident per day for the most recent quarter of payroll data in this CMS release (2026-08-01) — the same quarter for every facility — 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 3.53, RN 0.36, weekend 3.24.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (3.53 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 2/5.
Note: CMS combines facility-reported resident assessments (MDS) with claims-based measures. These are different sources from on-site inspection findings. Read the measures alongside inspection and staffing records; a high QM rating does not establish that a home is safe.
Quality measures rating: 4/5 · long-stay residents: 5/5 · short-stay residents: 3/5
