What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★★★☆4/5 · 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)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Jul 24, 2025 · F-0689 · triggered by a complaint

▲ Actual harm, one-off · Jul 24, 2025 · F-0697 · triggered by a complaint

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Illinois avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 4.89 | 2.99 | 3.95 | top 8% in Illinois; top 15% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 1.14 | 0.63 | 0.69 | top 10% in Illinois; top 11% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 4.59 | 2.67 | 3.50 | top 6% in Illinois; top 11% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.78 | 0.56 | 0.48 | top 19% in Illinois; top 12% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 57.1 | 44.5 | 45.8 | bottom 19% in Illinois; bottom 21% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 76.0 | 41.8 | 42.9 | bottom 6% in Illinois; bottom 7% 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 4.73, RN 1.10, weekend 4.44. Staffing rating: 4/5.
