“Actual harm” and “immediate jeopardy” are Medicare’s most serious inspection findings. Fines and payment denials are penalties Medicare imposed. Ask the home what changed since. A home with nothing listed here can still have lower-level citations — see Inspections below.

Quality of care

2 out of 5

Medicare overall rating

Medicare's roll-up of health inspections, staffing, and quality measures on a 1-to-5 scale. It does not measure family experience, cost, or bed availability, and it does not by itself say whether this home is right for one specific resident.

CMS Nursing Home Care Compare — Provider Information & Penalties · 2026-09-01 · retrieved 2026-10-09
1 out of 5

Health inspections

How this home did on its most recent unannounced state health inspections, compared to other homes. It does not measure staffing levels or clinical quality on its own.

CMS Nursing Home Care Compare — Provider Information & Penalties · 2026-09-01 · retrieved 2026-10-09
3 out of 5

Staffing

Nurse staffing hours per resident per day, from payroll-based records Medicare verifies against payroll data. It does not measure the skill or attentiveness of the staff on duty, only the hours reported.

CMS Nursing Home Care Compare — Provider Information & Penalties · 2026-09-01 · retrieved 2026-10-09
5 out of 5

Quality measures

A Medicare composite of clinical outcomes reported by the facility, such as falls, pressure ulcers, and hospitalizations. It does not measure every aspect of clinical care, and it relies on the facility's own reporting.

Your next step

Ratings cannot answer the most urgent questions.

Walk the building, ask what a rating can’t tell you, and write down who showed you around and what they said.

Open tour sheet

Costs & what may pay

What families report paying (national survey)
Semi-private room: about $9,581/mo · U.S. national median · CareScout 2025 Cost of Care Survey
Private room: about $10,798/mo · U.S. national median · CareScout 2025 Cost of Care Survey
These survey medians are not this home’s price. Ask the facility for a written estimate. Medicaid may cover long-term care for those who qualify — participation is not a guarantee of coverage or an available bed.

What may pay for nursing-home care

  • Medicare. Covers only a short stay for skilled care after a qualifying hospital stay. That is up to 100 days, and you pay part of the cost after day 20. It does not cover ongoing custodial long-term care.
  • Medicaid. Medicaid pays for most long nursing home stays. You must qualify by income and savings. A home that takes Medicaid may not have a Medicaid bed open, so ask. In most states, a Medicaid health plan sets up this care. Your state Medicaid office can tell you which one.
  • Veterans (VA) benefits. May help eligible veterans and some spouses; rules and facilities vary.
  • Long-term care insurance. Pays per your policy's terms, elimination period, and daily limits.
  • Private pay. Out of pocket, often combined with the above. Ask each home for a written estimate.
Medicaid managed care in NJ: In NJ, Medicaid long-term care is delivered through a Medicaid health plan for long-term care — about 62,534 people were enrolled (2024). You'd enroll in a plan that coordinates nursing-home or at-home care. Check your state Medicaid office for the current programs.

Questions to ask on a tour

  • What is your nurse-to-resident ratio on evenings, nights, and weekends?
  • How do you handle a resident's specific medical needs and medication changes?
  • May I see your most recent inspection results and how you fixed any issues?
  • Your health-inspection rating is below average — which citations were involved and how were they corrected?

Firsthand experiences from patients, families, and people who toured or interviewed this provider. These are separate from Medicare ratings and inspection findings.

Email ownership is verified; receipt of care is not independently verified. Positive and critical reviews follow the same moderation policy.

How reviews are moderated

We review all ratings under the same rules: firsthand experience, no spam, harassment, conflicts of interest, or someone else’s private information. A low rating alone is never a removal reason. Tours are labeled separately. Reviews do not establish clinical quality.

Use a nickname or first name and last initial. Do not include medical records, diagnoses, contact details, or patient or staff names. Sign in with the same email to edit or withdraw your review. Provider responses require email verification, content review, and a separate check of representative authority through an independently listed contact.

Reports go to our team; they do not automatically hide reviews. For urgent safety issues, contact the provider, your state regulator, or emergency services.
