What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)

Health inspection rating: ★★★☆☆3/5 · CMS overall rating: 4/5

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 27, 2025 · F-0806

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 (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.

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)

Measure	This facility	Florida avg	U.S. avg	Where it stands
Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day)	3.58	4.03	3.95	bottom 22% in Florida; bottom 40% in the U.S.
Registered Nurse hours	0.43	0.76	0.69	bottom 13% in Florida; bottom 27% in the U.S.
Weekend total nurse staffing	3.19	3.68	3.50	bottom 13% in Florida; bottom 41% in the U.S.
Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted)	0.38	0.53	0.48	bottom 38% in Florida; bottom 49% in the U.S.
Total nursing staff turnover (%)	44.6	41.4	45.8	bottom 42% in Florida; top 49% in the U.S.
RN turnover (%)	87.5	46.0	42.9	bottom 1% in Florida; bottom 3% 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 3.72, RN 0.45, weekend 3.32. 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: 5/5 · long-stay residents: 5/5 · short-stay residents: 4/5
