What to ask about before you visit
These are findings in the public CMS record for this home. They are not our opinion, each one comes straight from a federal inspection or enforcement file.
Nursing staff turnover of 64%
High turnover means residents rarely see the same caregiver twice. The national average is about 50%.
Our read on Ash Grove Healthcare Facility
Ash Grove Healthcare Facility runs on thinner staffing than most homes you'll compare it to, about 3.20 nurse hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 16% below its own weekday coverage. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when residents still need the same hands. Annual turnover of 63.6% is well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care are changing often. The inspection record is genuinely decent: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, and a current survey from January 2025. But 16 deficiencies including two abuse-related citations, and a 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating, mean the day-to-day clinical picture doesn't match the strong inspection score.
