Red flags

CMS abuse warning

Cited under the freedom-from-abuse rule

Cited 1 time under F600 (freedom from abuse/neglect) below the actual-harm level — worth asking about on a tour.

3 actual-harm citations in the most recent cycle

Inspectors found deficiencies that caused real harm to residents, beyond potential-harm paperwork findings.

$133,225 in federal fines in the last 24 months

1 fine — CMS fines are reserved for verified, serious non-compliance.

96% of nursing staff left within a year

High turnover disrupts continuity of care; the national median is 45%.
