What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★★★☆4/5 · CMS overall rating: 4/5
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 (5)
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Nov 20, 2025 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not provide pharmacy services that meet each resident's needs, or did not employ or contract with a licensed pharmacist. |
| Jan 6, 2023 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | 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. |
| Jan 6, 2023 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility hired someone with an official finding of abuse, neglect, exploitation, or theft against them. Facilities are not allowed to employ people with such findings. |
| Jan 6, 2023 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not have or follow an effective program to prevent and control infections — such as proper hand washing, cleaning, and isolation practices. This is the most commonly cited deficiency nationwide. |
| Jan 6, 2023 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not make sure its staff were vaccinated for COVID-19 in accordance with the federal requirements in effect at the time. |

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Kentucky avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 2.73 | 3.71 | 3.95 | bottom 8% in Kentucky; bottom 7% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.48 | 0.74 | 0.69 | bottom 27% in Kentucky; bottom 35% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.44 | 3.27 | 3.50 | bottom 12% in Kentucky; bottom 8% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.47 | 0.53 | 0.48 | top 46% in Kentucky; top 37% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 30.0 | 46.4 | 45.8 | top 8% in Kentucky; top 14% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 40.0 | 41.8 | 42.9 | bottom 48% in Kentucky; top 46% 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 3.87, RN 0.68, weekend 3.46. Staffing rating: 2/5.
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: 3/5 · long-stay residents: 3/5 · short-stay residents: 4/5
