Penalties
- Apr 23, 2026 · Federal fine$42,275
Federal fines follow the most serious or repeated problems. A payment denial stops Medicare and Medicaid paying for new admissions — in practice, a pause on new admissions; residents already there are not affected by it.
Staffing
| Hours of care per resident a day | This home | NC avg |
|---|---|---|
| All nursing staff, adjusted for residents' needs | 3.48 | 3.99 |
| Registered nurses | 0.84 | 0.62 |
| Nurse aides (most hands-on care) | 2.03 | 2.37 |
| All nursing staff on weekends | 3.45 | 3.40 |
From payroll records the home must submit to CMS. Weekends here have about 16% fewer nursing hours per resident than the week as a whole.

What you can do
Questions to ask on a tour, from this record
- Inspectors found residents were harmed on Apr 23, 2026 (Develop and implement policies and procedures to prevent abuse, neglect, and theft). What changed afterwards, and who is responsible for it now?
- The home was penalised on Apr 23, 2026. What was the problem, and is it fixed?
- Weekend staffing is thinner here. Who is on duty on a Saturday night, and how many residents does each aide care for?
- May I see your most recent inspection report? (Nursing homes must keep it where residents and visitors can read it.)
- How many residents does each nurse aide care for on day, evening and night shifts?
If your family member already lives here
A record like this is a reason to watch closely and ask questions, not necessarily to move — moving a frail person carries risks of its own. Raise concerns with the director of nursing first, in writing if serious. If that doesn't resolve them, call the free Long-Term Care Ombudsman (Centralina, (800) 508-5777) or file a complaint with the state (NC DHSR, 1-800-624-3004, weekdays). If someone is in danger now, call 911.
