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

Health inspection rating: ★☆☆☆☆1/5 · 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 · May 31, 2024 · 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 (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.

Date	Severity	What the facility was cited for
Apr 15, 2026	E · Potential for harm, repeated	The facility did not treat residents with dignity and respect, or did not honor their rights to make their own decisions and communicate freely. This is one of the most fundamental resident rights. · from a complaint
Apr 15, 2026	E · Potential for harm, repeated	The facility did not honor residents' right to make their own choices about their daily lives, such as when to wake up, what to eat, or how to spend their time.
Apr 15, 2026	E · Potential for harm, repeated	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. · from a complaint

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

Measure	This facility	New York avg	U.S. avg	Where it stands
Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day)	2.92	3.58	3.95	bottom 20% in New York; bottom 11% in the U.S.
Registered Nurse hours	0.45	0.68	0.69	bottom 24% in New York; bottom 30% in the U.S.
Weekend total nurse staffing	2.63	3.13	3.50	bottom 25% in New York; bottom 13% in the U.S.
Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted)	0.32	0.48	0.48	bottom 45% in New York; bottom 37% in the U.S.
Total nursing staff turnover (%)	71.1	40.3	45.8	bottom 3% in New York; bottom 5% in the U.S.
RN turnover (%)	62.5	39.8	42.9	bottom 10% in New York; bottom 19% 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 3.27, RN 0.50, weekend 2.94. Staffing rating: 1/5.

Self-reported quality measures
