CMS scores nursing homes from one to five stars.

Staffing and quality measure ratings are scored against national thresholds.

Federal penalties

CMS’s penalty file lists 3 federal penalties against this facility: 2 fines totalling $139,912, and 1 denial of payment for new admissions. A denial of payment means CMS stopped paying the home for residents admitted after a set date until the problem was fixed.

Flags CMS has placed on this facility

• Abuse icon. CMS marks this facility with the abuse icon on Care Compare. CMS applies that icon to homes cited for “abuse that led to harm of a resident within the past year” or “abuse that could have potentially led to harm of a resident in each of the last two years.” CMS updates the list monthly and removes homes that no longer meet the criteria.

Inspectors have cited this home 53 times since January 2024

2 of those were at severity level G or above — what CMS calls actual harm. 1 reached immediate jeopardy, CMS’s most serious category. 17 came from complaints rather than routine inspections. Every one of them is listed below, with its date and what the rule required.

The wording in the third column is CMS’s own plain-language summary of the federal rule that was cited, not a description of what happened. This table shows every one of the 2 citations at actual-harm level or above, plus the 6 most recent of the rest. The other 45 are in the CMS file linked below.

How to read scope and severity

Every citation gets a letter from A to L. The letter carries two things at once: how serious the problem was, and how many residents it reached.

Severity	Isolated	Pattern	Widespread
Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety	J	K	L
Actual harm	G	H	I
No actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm	D	E	F
No actual harm, potential for minimal harm	A	B	C

“Immediate jeopardy” is CMS’s term for a situation that has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment or death. It requires the home to act at once.

What this page does not tell you

• A citation is an inspector’s finding against a federal rule. It is not a court judgment, and the facility may be disputing it. Citations marked “under dispute” above are in CMS’s formal review process.
• Citation counts partly reflect how often a home was inspected and how many complaints were filed about it. A home with more citations has not automatically given worse care than one with fewer.
• Bigger homes have more residents, more staff and more inspections, so they tend to accumulate more citations.
• None of this says anything about the care any one resident received. A home with a clean record can still fail somebody, and a home with a bad record can be caring for your mother well.
• This is a snapshot. CMS updates these files monthly, and the figures here are from the file dated August 1, 2026.
