Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Accepted payment sources

    None of the 60 beds carry Medicare or Medicaid certification — ask which payment sources the facility accepts and what happens if a resident's private funds run out.

  2. Rehab and skilled services

    Without Medicare certification, short-term rehabilitation covered under Medicare isn't available here — ask how post-hospital skilled-nursing needs are handled.

  3. Staffing levels and overnight coverage

    No federal staffing data is filed for this facility; ask for daily nurse-to-resident ratios and how overnight and weekend shifts are covered across all 60 beds.

  4. Inspection and complaint history

    This facility doesn't report to CMS Care Compare; ask to see the most recent state inspection report and any complaint investigations on file.

  5. Ownership structure and governance

    The licensee is a nonprofit — ask who sits on the governing board and how residents or families can raise concerns with leadership.
