Why this verdict

- Cleaner inspection record than most facilities nationally.
- No federal fines or payment denials in CMS’s 3-year window.
- Inspection results have improved across recent cycles.
The composite number cleared 77 points, but Recommended is gated: staffing below the Recommended bar. That rule is part of the published method.
Red flags
No red flags in the current CMS record. Genuinely good news — pair it with an in-person tour before deciding.
