Solid safety record
A mostly clean inspection record: 1 serious and 2 minor citations across 6 state inspections. Nothing here stands out as a red flag, though it's still worth asking how any past issues were resolved.
Licensed nurses provide clinical oversight
LVNs and CNAs on staff provide a level of medical competence that many small board-and-care homes can't match. For residents with medication complexity or health monitoring needs, this clinical backbone is important.
Memory care in a 4-bed setting
Specialized memory and dementia care in a home with just 4 residents means an extraordinarily high staff-to-resident ratio for cognitive support. Residents with memory needs get individual attention that's impossible in a 50-bed memory care wing.
4 beds limits social interaction
With only 4 residents, your loved one's social circle within the home is extremely small. The mentoring program and community outings help, but day-to-day interaction is limited to a few housemates.
