Nursing home chain with 7 nursing homes in 1 state, 832 certified beds. Named by CMS as the chain these homes belong to.^[6]

⚠ How to read this ranking

Homes are ordered by the overall star rating the U.S. government (CMS) publishes, as of October 1, 2026, lowest first. Ties go to the home with the higher health inspection score (more citation points), then to larger fines.^[1] Homes in CMS's Special Focus Facility program carry no star rating and are listed first.^[11]

A low rating reflects inspection results, staffing and resident outcomes at the time of CMS's data. It is not a finding of wrongdoing by anyone, ratings change every month, and a home can improve quickly. See the contact page to report an error or an out-of-date entry, and check Medicare Care Compare for the latest figures.
