What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 3/5
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 · Jun 17, 2024 · 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.

| Sep 2, 2021 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not provide the help residents need with basic daily activities — like bathing, dressing, eating, and using the bathroom — for residents who cannot do these things on their own. |

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Ohio avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 2.89 | 3.45 | 3.95 | bottom 16% in Ohio; bottom 10% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.24 | 0.60 | 0.69 | bottom 1% in Ohio; bottom 5% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.76 | 3.07 | 3.50 | bottom 34% in Ohio; bottom 19% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.24 | 0.42 | 0.48 | bottom 17% in Ohio; bottom 20% in the U.S. |

| RN turnover (%) | 28.6 | 43.9 | 42.9 | top 25% in Ohio; top 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 2.94, RN 0.25, weekend 2.81. Staffing rating: 2/5.
Self-reported quality measures
