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 · Jul 31, 2025 · F-0791
The facility did not provide or arrange dental services for its residents. Nursing homes are responsible for making sure residents can get dental care.
Why it matters: Dental problems left untreated cause pain, infection, and trouble eating, which can lead to weight loss.
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 1, 2025 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

| Date | Severity | What the facility was cited for |
|---|---|---|
| Jul 31, 2025 | ▲ G · Actual harm, one-off | The facility did not provide or arrange dental services for its residents. Nursing homes are responsible for making sure residents can get dental care. |
| Jul 31, 2025 | E · Potential for harm, repeated | The facility did not immediately notify the resident, their doctor, and a family member when something significant happened — such as an injury, a decline in health, or a room change. Families and doctors are entitled to know right away. |

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Connecticut avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 4.41 | 3.80 | 3.95 | top 21% in Connecticut; top 25% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 1.00 | 0.70 | 0.69 | top 15% in Connecticut; top 16% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.79 | 3.43 | 3.50 | top 23% in Connecticut; top 30% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.59 | 0.46 | 0.48 | top 21% in Connecticut; top 24% in the U.S. |

| RN turnover (%) | 43.3 | 38.6 | 42.9 | bottom 40% in Connecticut; bottom 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 4.43, RN 1.00, weekend 3.80. Staffing rating: 4/5.
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.
