What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 2/5
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 · Mar 3, 2026 · F-0760 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not keep residents free from significant medication errors — such as giving the wrong drug, the wrong dose, or missing a critical medication.
Why it matters: A serious medication error can cause real harm, hospitalization, or worse.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Missouri avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 5.96 | 3.66 | 3.95 | top 3% in Missouri; top 4% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.93 | 0.49 | 0.69 | top 5% in Missouri; top 19% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 5.40 | 3.22 | 3.50 | top 2% in Missouri; top 4% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.59 | 0.33 | 0.48 | top 6% in Missouri; top 23% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 54.5 | 56.0 | 45.8 | top 43% in Missouri; bottom 26% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 37.5 | 47.8 | 42.9 | top 33% in Missouri; top 42% 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 5.92, RN 0.93, weekend 5.36. Staffing rating: 4/5.
Self-reported quality measures
