What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★★☆☆3/5 · CMS overall rating: 1/5
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 · Aug 19, 2024 · F-0880 · triggered by a complaint
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.
Why it matters: Weak infection control lets illnesses like flu, COVID-19, and drug-resistant infections spread quickly among vulnerable residents.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.
Corrected: Aug 20, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Jan 11, 2024 · F-0689 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not keep the environment free of accident hazards, or did not provide enough supervision to prevent accidents like falls.
Why it matters: This is one of the most common citations and directly relates to falls and injuries, which can be devastating for older adults.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.
Corrected: Jan 19, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

Families and doctors are entitled to know right away. · from a complaint |
| Nov 22, 2024 | E · Potential for harm, repeated | The facility did not properly hold, secure, and manage residents' personal money that was deposited with it for safekeeping. Facilities holding residents' funds must keep careful, honest accounts. |

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) | 2.97 | 3.66 | 3.95 | bottom 22% in Missouri; bottom 13% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.39 | 0.49 | 0.69 | bottom 44% in Missouri; bottom 20% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 2.49 | 3.22 | 3.50 | bottom 20% in Missouri; bottom 9% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.34 | 0.33 | 0.48 | top 33% in Missouri; bottom 40% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 76.9 | 56.0 | 45.8 | bottom 7% in Missouri; bottom 3% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 100.0 | 47.8 | 42.9 | bottom 2% in Missouri; bottom 1% 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 2.79, RN 0.36, weekend 2.34. Staffing rating: 1/5.
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: 1/5 · long-stay residents: 1/5 · short-stay residents: —/5
