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)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Mar 21, 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.
Corrected: Dec 6, 2023 (Past Non-Compliance)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Sep 16, 2024 · F-0806 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide food that accounts for each resident's allergies, intolerances, and personal preferences, or did not offer appealing alternatives.
Why it matters: Ignoring allergies can be dangerous, and ignoring preferences leads residents to eat less and lose weight.
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: Oct 22, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Mar 21, 2024 · F-0697 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide safe and appropriate pain management for a resident who needed it.
Why it matters: Untreated pain causes needless suffering and can lead to depression, poor sleep, and declining health.
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: May 7, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Utah avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 3.48 | 3.87 | 3.95 | bottom 43% in Utah; bottom 35% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.98 | 1.17 | 0.69 | bottom 47% in Utah; top 17% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.13 | 3.39 | 3.50 | top 49% in Utah; bottom 38% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.83 | 0.88 | 0.48 | top 46% in Utah; top 10% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 60.2 | 50.7 | 45.8 | bottom 27% in Utah; bottom 16% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 48.4 | 40.6 | 42.9 | bottom 38% in Utah; bottom 39% 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 3.71, RN 1.05, weekend 3.34. Staffing rating: 3/5.
