Our read on Callaway Good Life Center, Inc
Callaway Good Life Center runs 38 beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average, about 2% higher per resident day. That sounds fine until you look at weekends, which run roughly 14% thinner than weekdays. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 28 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $34,608. Its last inspection was April 2026. The quality measure rating lands at 3 out of 5, staffing 3 out of 5, and health inspection 1 out of 5, that last number is the one worth asking the administrator about directly before you decide anything.
