Red flags
CMS abuse warning
CMS flags this facility with its abuse icon: cited for abuse that caused harm in the past year, or potential harm in the past two years.
Cited under the freedom-from-abuse rule
Cited 6 times under F600 (freedom from abuse/neglect) below the actual-harm level — worth asking about on a tour.
No standard inspection in over 2 years
The inspection record here is older than usual — conditions may have changed since.
