What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 3/5
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 · Feb 10, 2026 · F-0610
The facility did not respond appropriately to alleged violations, such as reports of abuse, neglect, or mistreatment. Facilities must investigate every allegation and protect residents while they do.
Why it matters: When allegations aren't investigated, harm to residents can continue unchecked.
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: Mar 6, 2026 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Mar 6, 2025 · F-0686 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide proper care for pressure ulcers (bedsores) or did not do enough to prevent new ones from forming. Bedsores develop when residents stay in one position too long without help moving.
Why it matters: Bedsores are painful, can become deeply infected, and in serious cases can be life-threatening.
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: Apr 23, 2025 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

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) | 3.93 | 3.88 | 3.95 | top 34% in New Jersey; top 43% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.61 | 0.67 | 0.69 | top 43% in New Jersey; top 47% in the U.S. |
| Weekend total nurse staffing | 3.58 | 3.53 | 3.50 | top 34% in New Jersey; top 38% in the U.S. |
| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.47 | 0.50 | 0.48 | top 40% in New Jersey; top 37% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 55.7 | 39.7 | 45.8 | bottom 12% in New Jersey; bottom 24% in the U.S. |
| RN turnover (%) | 25.9 | 37.7 | 42.9 | top 29% in New Jersey; top 23% 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 4.29, RN 0.67, weekend 3.91. Staffing rating: 4/5.
Self-reported quality measures
