Quality measures — how residents actually fare

Quality-measure stars summarize outcomes CMS tracks from the assessments each home submits — avoidable hospitalizations and ER visits, falls with injury, pressure ulcers, unplanned weight loss, and long-term antipsychotic use. Because the underlying data is self-reported, weigh a high score against the independent inspection record. Long-stay = permanent residents; short-stay = rehab and post-hospital stays.

Short-stay rehab — if you are coming here from a hospital

Arriving from a hospital right now? Read the discharge guide → — your appeal rights, how to slow a rushed discharge, and what to ask about the numbers below.

51.9% of the Medicare patients who left this home got back to the community and stayed there for at least 31 days — which CMS reads as no different from the national rate. This is CMS’s risk-adjusted rate over 38 Medicare stays in Oct 2022–Sep 2024, and CMS’s own comparison — not ours.

Therapy staffing: this home’s payroll records show 0.78 therapist hours per resident per day in 2026Q1 — more than 94% of the 13,892 homes that report any therapy hours at all.

Weekend therapy: weekend therapy hours are 8% of this home’s weekday level — it runs some therapy at the weekend, at a lower level than on weekdays. The median home that reports therapy runs 13% — weekday-focused therapy is the industry norm, not a shortfall. But recovery does not pause on a Saturday: ask what the weekend actually looks like here.

This section is about rehab stays, not living here. Most of this page — the stars, the quality measures, the inspection record — describes the home the way a permanent resident experiences it. These figures describe the short Medicare stay after a hospital discharge: a hip, a stroke, a bad infection, six weeks and home. They are different residents, different staff, often a different wing. Therapy hours are per resident in the building, not per rehab patient — the count includes every long-stay resident, and they mostly get no therapy at all. So a home with a small rehab wing inside a large nursing population reads low here even if its rehab patients get plenty of therapy, and a mostly-rehab home reads high. Use it to compare homes doing similar work, ask what a rehab resident actually gets in a day, and remember that CMS does not publish therapy minutes per patient — nobody does.

Staffing

How full it usually is: this home is certified for 54 beds and averages 49.6 residents a day — about 92% occupied, or roughly 4 beds typically open. It runs fairly full. This is a CMS average, not live availability — no public source publishes real-time vacancies, and a home can be full the day you call. Confirm with the home, and if you need a Medicaid bed specifically, ask about that separately: a home with open beds may still not have an open Medicaid bed.

Against a benchmark — not a legal minimum. In May 2024 CMS finalized the first federal staffing floor for nursing homes: 3.48 total nurse hours per resident per day, including 0.55 RN hours and 2.45 nurse-aide hours. Its hour requirements never took effect and are no longer on the books. Homes had until 2026 (2027 if rural) to comply, and that deadline never arrived: a federal court vacated the hour requirements in April 2025 (CMS has appealed), Congress then barred enforcement until 2034, and CMS formally repealed them by rule effective February 2026. This home is not required to meet these numbers, and is not violating anything by missing them. We still show the comparison because the figures are CMS’s own published estimate of adequate staffing, which makes them a useful yardstick — but they are our benchmark, not federal law: this home’s total nurse staffing of 3.95 hrs/resident/day is at or above the 3.48-hour benchmark and RN staffing of 0.40 is below the 0.55-hour RN benchmark and nurse-aide staffing of 2.02 is below the 2.45-hour aide benchmark. What federal law does require today is unchanged: “sufficient” nursing staff for residents’ needs and an RN on duty at least 8 consecutive hours a day, 7 days a week (42 CFR 483.35). Those are judged by inspectors on site, not by these averages, so read this comparison alongside the inspection record rather than as a pass/fail.

Weekend coverage: total nurse staffing is 3.16 hrs/resident/day on weekends vs 4.27 on weekdays — 26% thinner on weekends — a notable drop. RN hours go from 0.45 to 0.29 per resident-day. (Payroll-based daily records; the national median home is 15% thinner on weekends.)

This home’s total nursing-staff turnover of 62% is well above the national median of 45%.

Payroll-based (PBJ) staffing hours, as reported for Jan–Mar 2026 (CMS PBJ CY2026Q1) — the most recent quarter CMS has published, so they can lag a change of operator or staffing agency. Higher is generally better. Registered-nurse coverage and weekend staffing are the numbers families most often overlook — an RN on site matters most when something goes wrong, and coverage usually thins on weekends. High turnover means residents rarely see the same caregiver twice. One caveat: these are hours as reported, not adjusted for how sick or heavy-care this home’s residents are. CMS separately publishes a case-mix-adjusted view; we show the reported hours. A home caring for higher-acuity residents needs more hours to deliver the same care, so compare these figures against homes doing similar work, and read them next to the inspection record rather than alone.

Inspection trend

Deficiencies are fewer than at the previous inspection — improving. Fewer citations over time suggests a home is fixing problems; a rising count is a warning sign — though two surveys are a short record, and survey teams differ. These counts are from the standard annual health survey only; the full citation list below may also include findings from complaint investigations, so the two won’t always add up.

Inspection deficiencies

State health-inspection citations, most serious first. Each carries an F-code (the federal rule it cites, e.g. F-684 = quality of care) and a letter A–L marking how serious and how widespread the problem was — we translate that grid into the plain tiers shown here. Wording is the official federal description.

Each letter is a CMS scope-severity level; highlighted ones are where this home has citations. A–C = no harm found; D–F = potential for harm; G–I = actual harm; J–L = immediate jeopardy. Within each band the later letter is the more widespread finding (an isolated G is one resident; a widespread I is a pattern), so rightward and downward is worse.

18 citations, most serious first. The 10 most serious are shown; the remaining 8 are one tap away and print in full.

  NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY Based on interviews and record reviews conducted during the Recertification Survey from 10/12/23 to 10/19/23, it was determined that for 2 (Resident #41 and Resident #43) of 19 residents reviewed for care planning, the facility did not ensure the residents right to participate in the development and implementation of his or her person-centered plan of care. Specifically, neither Residents #41 or #43 or their representatives had been given the opportunity to attend any care plan meetings since admission. This is evidenced by the following: 1.Resident #41 had been at the facility approximately four months and had diagnoses including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (a nervous system disease that weakens muscles and impacts physical function), history of falls, and depression. The Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident was cognitively intact.

  NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY Based on interviews, and record review conducted during a Recertification Survey from 10/12/23 to 10/19/23, it was determined for one (Resident #41) of two residents reviewed for abuse, the facility did not ensure the resident was free from verbal abuse, neglect, and/or intimidation. Specifically, Resident #41 was made to wait for assistance with toileting, was subjected to retaliatory remarks and continued to have contact with a staff member following an incident and removal of the staff member from the resident's assignment. This is evidenced by the following: The facility policy, Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitation Prohibition, Training, Investigation, and Reporting Policy, dated December 2016, defined abuse as the willful infliction of injury, unreasonable confinement, intimidation, or punishment with resulting physical harm, pain, or mental anguish. Abuse also includes the deprivation by an individual, including a caretaker, of goods or services that are necessary to attain or maintain physical, mental, and…

  Based on observations, interviews, and record review conducted during the Recertification Survey from 10/12/23 to 10/19/23, it was determined for one (Resident #166) of three residents reviewed, the facility did not ensure a resident who was unable to carry out activities of daily living (ADLs) received the necessary services to maintain their grooming. Specifically, Resident #166 was observed on several days with a full beard which was not their preference. This is evidenced by the following: Resident #166 was admitted to the facility several weeks prior with diagnoses including pelvic fracture, anxiety disorder, and major depressive disorder. The Minimum Data Set Assessment, dated 10/12/23, revealed the resident had moderately impaired cognition and was dependent on staff to maintain personal hygiene. Review of the Comprehensive Care Plan dated 10/6/23 included to assist the resident with their ADLs per therapy recommendations and to encourage participation in the completion of ADLs. The Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) care plan, dated 10/6/23, revealed the resident was to be…

  Based on observations, interviews, and record review conducted during the Recertification Survey from 10/12/23 to 10/19/23, it was determined for one (Resident #160) of two residents reviewed the facility did not ensure the resident's environment remained as free of accident hazards as was possible and each resident received adequate supervision to prevent accidents. Specifically, Resident #160 who had swallowing issues and was on aspiration (accidental inhalation of food or drink into the lungs) precautions, was observed on several occasions eating or drinking in their room with no supervision. This is evidenced by the following: Review of a facility policy titled Aspiration Precautions Protocol revised November 2019, documented the purpose of the protocol was to enhance the resident's quality of life by providing the safest diet and feeding procedures while reducing dysphagia. Residents requiring aspiration precautions may not be left unsupervised with food or liquids. A yellow dot sticker would be placed next to their name near the doorframe of their room to identify they are at…

  Based on observations, interviews, and record review conducted during the Recertification Survey from 10/12/23 to 10/19/23, it was determined for one (Resident #166) of one resident that the facility did not ensure that appropriate treatment and services were provided to prevent urinary tract infection (UTI) for a resident with an indwelling urinary catheter (catheter directly inserted into the bladder and empties urine into a drainage bag). Specifically, Resident #166 was observed on several occasions with the urinary catheter bag and catheter drainage port lying directly on the floor in the resident's room and staff stated they do not routinely cleanse the drainage poor prior to emptying the catheter bag (and reattaching the port). This is evidenced by the following: Resident #166 had diagnoses including pelvic fracture, urinary retention (a condition in which a person is unable to empty all the urine from their bladder), acute kidney failure, and chronic kidney disease. The Minimum Data Set Assessment, dated 10/12/23, revealed the resident had moderately impaired cognition and…

“Cited before” means this same F-tag appears on at least one other survey date in the record we hold — counting complaint investigations as well as standard surveys, with no time limit. It is our own read of the data, not CMS’s: CMS uses repeat deficiency as a formal term tied to consecutive standard surveys, and that is a narrower test than this one. A tag marked here may or may not meet it.

Part of a chain

This home belongs to HURLBUT CARE — 13 facilities. Here is how its ratings compare with the chain’s average across all its homes: See the whole chain — ratings, flags, fines and finances →

A home rated well below its chain’s average can signal local problems; a chain with a low average across the board is a bigger pattern worth researching. CMS chain data under-reports private-equity and REIT ownership, so treat this as a floor, not the full picture.

Who owns this facility

CMS files one row per role, so the 12 rows in the source record cover these 6 parties — each is shown once here with every role it holds. Nothing is omitted. The source lists no ownership percentage for any of them — PECOS records a share only for equity interests, not for board or management roles.

2 organizational owners listed — a facility can be part of a larger chain. CMS ownership data is known to under-report private-equity and REIT ties; treat as a starting point.

Follow the money — this home’s finances

Where a nursing home’s revenue comes from and where it goes — including money paid to companies under the same ownership. Most consumer sites never show this; we reproduce it straight from the Medicare cost report.

This home reported $785K paid to related parties — landlords or management companies under common ownership — equal to about 11% of its total expenses. Money routed to affiliated companies can leave a home’s own books looking lean while owners still profit; it is the mechanism regulators watch most closely in private-equity and REIT deals.

Source: CMS Healthcare Provider Cost Reporting Information System (HCRIS), Medicare cost report Form CMS-2540 · fiscal year 2023. Facilities self-file these reports; figures are unaudited and a year or two behind. A home with no Medicare cost report on file shows no figures here.

Cost & finances

Straight from this home’s Medicare cost report (CMS, FY2023). These are its operating economics — what it costs to run per resident-day and what it collects on average across Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay — not a private-pay quote. Your out-of-pocket cost depends on payer and room type, so ask the facility directly; a higher operating cost can reflect richer staffing or a sicker population. The cost-of-care planner shows regional benchmarks by care type.
