What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★★★★5/5 · CMS overall rating: 5/5
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 (4)
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Apr 8, 2025 | B · Minimal risk, repeated | The facility did not enter each resident's assessment information into the required format and send it to the state within 7 days of completing the assessment, as the rules require. |
| Feb 10, 2023 | E · Potential for harm, repeated | The facility did not get its food from approved, safe sources, or did not store, prepare, and serve food according to professional food safety standards. |
| Feb 10, 2023 | B · Minimal risk, repeated | The facility did not give residents (and their representatives and the ombudsman, a state advocate for residents) proper advance notice before a transfer or discharge, including information about their right to appeal. |
| Feb 10, 2023 | B · Minimal risk, repeated | The facility did not give the resident or their representative written notice of how long it would hold the resident's bed during a hospital stay or approved leave. |
Inspection trend by year
Citations from standard inspections decreased between the last two inspection cycles (3 → 1).
| Year | Citations | Serious (G–L) | Worst severity that year |

No fines or payment denials in the published 3-year window.
Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | New Jersey avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 4.75 | 3.88 | 3.95 | top 12% in New Jersey; top 17% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.91 | 0.67 | 0.69 | top 16% in New Jersey; top 20% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 4.18 | 3.53 | 3.50 | top 15% in New Jersey; top 18% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.51 | 0.50 | 0.48 | top 33% in New Jersey; top 31% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 13.2 | 39.7 | 45.8 | top 2% in New Jersey; top 1% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 0.0 | 37.7 | 42.9 | top 1% in New Jersey; top 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 4.76, RN 0.91, weekend 4.18. Staffing rating: 5/5.
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: 4/5 · long-stay residents: 4/5 · short-stay residents: —/5
