The short answer
Record last released by Alabama Department of Public Health, Bureau of Health Provider Standards on Oct 20, 2026.
- Not rated by Medicare: CMS rates only the providers it certifies, and this one isn’t Medicare-certified
- Not read what inspectors found: the state’s list doesn’t carry it
Each figure’s source sits beside it, in its section below.
What these words mean8
- Not read
- The file this site reads doesn’t carry what inspectors found, so nothing is counted here. It doesn’t mean the place has a clean record: the state’s own site may have its reports. Source: How this site reads each source.
- Star ratings
- CMS rates some kinds of place from 1 to 5 stars, more stars meaning better on CMS’s own measures for that kind: for a nursing home, its health inspections, staffing and quality measures. A rating is CMS’s summary of those measures; it doesn’t promise good care. Source: CMS, Care Compare and the Five-Star Quality Rating System.
- Inspection (survey)
- A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
- Deficiency, citation, violation
- What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.
- Scope and severity (A to L)
- CMS grades each nursing home deficiency with a letter. A to C: no actual harm, with potential for minimal harm. D to F: no actual harm, but potential for more. G to I: actual harm. J to L: immediate jeopardy. Within each band, the letter rises as more residents were affected or could be: one or a few, a pattern, or widespread. Source: CMS, nursing home scope and severity grid (State Operations Manual, chapter 7).
- Nurse staffing hours
- The hours registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and nurse aides worked, per resident per day, from the payroll records each home sends CMS. Source: CMS, Payroll-Based Journal.
- Fines and payment denials
- A fine (civil money penalty) is money CMS makes a nursing home pay when it falls short of federal rules. A payment denial means Medicare and Medicaid stop paying for new admissions until the home meets the rules again. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.430 and 488.417.
- Capacity
- The most people the licence or certification lets the place care for at once: residents, children, beds or apartments, as the state counts them. It isn’t how many are there now. Source: Each state’s licensing agency.
What did inspectors find?
- Alabama’s directory carries no inspection results, so this page can’t say what inspectors found. The Department of Public Health says: “The division conducts surveys of health care facilities. When facilities are found to be noncompliant with federal and state regulations a corrective action plan is required of the facility,” and posts deficiency reports in its Health Care Facilities Deficiencies search.
Is it licensed, or certified?
- Skilled Nursing Facility, licensed by Alabama’s Department of Public Health.
- Alabama’s directory gives it no Medicare number and no Medicaid number, so it isn’t Medicare-certified. CMS’s files list only the nursing homes Medicare certifies, so no CMS CMS rates some kinds of place from 1 to 5 stars, more stars meaning better on CMS’s own measures for that kind: for a nursing home, its health inspections, staffing and quality measures. A rating is CMS’s summary of those measures; it doesn’t promise good care. Source: CMS, Care Compare and the Five-Star Quality Rating System., survey or inspection covers this one, and none is shown or compared.
- Alabama’s licence status: Regular.
- Licensed as: Skilled Nursing Facility (174 beds).
- Licensee type: State of Alabama.

Has the state acted against it?
- Alabama’s directory marks a probational licence, and carries no other enforcement actions.
Who does the caring?
- Alabama publishes no staffing levels in this list, and CMS’s staffing measures cover only certified nursing homes.
Who owns it?
- This list doesn’t name owners.
How do residents fare?
- CMS rates only Medicare-certified nursing homes, so no CMS rating is shown here; Alabama publishes no rating in this list.
How does it compare nearby?
- Not compared: CMS’s measures cover only the nursing homes Medicare certifies, and this state’s list publishes no measure of its own to compare.
What the record doesn’t say
- Alabama licenses every nursing home, and ADPH’s directory lists each with its Medicare number where Medicare certifies it. This page is one it gives none, and that CMS’s files don’t hold by its name or its street either: so no CMS rating or inspection covers it. Intermediate care facilities for individuals with intellectual disabilities, filed with nursing homes in the directory, aren’t listed.
- CMS’s files list only the nursing homes Medicare certifies, so no CMS star rating, survey or inspection covers this one, and none is shown or compared.
- Alabama’s directory carries no inspection results, so this page can’t say what inspectors found. The Department of Public Health says: “The division conducts surveys of health care facilities. When facilities are found to be noncompliant with federal and state regulations a corrective action plan is required of the facility,” and posts deficiency reports in its Health Care Facilities Deficiencies search.
- Alabama’s directory names the type of each home’s licensee (a corporation, the State of Alabama), not the licensee.
