Why this verdict
- Inspection results are getting worse cycle over cycle, not better.
- No federal fines or payment denials in CMS’s 3-year window.
The composite number cleared 73 points, but Recommended is gated: inspection record below the Recommended bar. That rule is part of the published method.
Red flags
RN staffing in the bottom 10% nationally
0.28 registered-nurse hours per resident per day, vs a 0.58 national median and 0.75 benchmark.
