What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · 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)
▲ Immediate jeopardy, one-off · Jan 8, 2025 · 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|

| Sep 12, 2025 | F · Potential for harm, facility-wide | The facility did not keep the environment free of accident hazards, or did not provide enough supervision to prevent accidents like falls. · from a complaint |

| Jan 8, 2025 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not develop or follow a complete care plan for each resident — the written roadmap covering all of a resident's needs, with measurable goals and timelines. · from a complaint |

| Nov 21, 2024 | F · Potential for harm, facility-wide | The facility did not conduct and document a facility-wide assessment of what staff, supplies, and resources it needs to care for its residents properly — during everyday operations, nights, weekends, and emergencies. |

| Dec 15, 2023 | E · Potential for harm, repeated | The facility did not allow residents to take their own medications when a clinical review showed they could do so safely. Residents have this right if their care team determines it's appropriate. |
| Dec 15, 2023 | E · Potential for harm, repeated | The facility did not make reasonable adjustments to fit each resident's individual needs and preferences — things like call buttons within reach, preferred wake-up times, or accessible room setups. |

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Arkansas avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 4.51 | 4.71 | 3.95 | bottom 45% in Arkansas; top 23% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.23 | 0.48 | 0.69 | bottom 4% in Arkansas; bottom 4% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.84 | 4.04 | 3.50 | bottom 42% in Arkansas; top 28% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.12 | 0.28 | 0.48 | bottom 6% in Arkansas; bottom 3% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 65.1 | 49.5 | 45.8 | bottom 13% in Arkansas; bottom 10% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 60.0 | 44.8 | 42.9 | bottom 30% in Arkansas; bottom 22% 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 3.50, RN 0.18, weekend 2.98. Staffing rating: 2/5.
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: 3/5 · short-stay residents: 1/5
