Our read on Heritage Place Of Decatur

Heritage Place Of Decatur runs 60 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its last inspection on November 21, 2025 sits fairly recent. The inspection history is the strong part: 13 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, which lines up with a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Staffing is where the picture shifts. At 2.99 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 23% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday level, thin coverage getting thinner when families tend to visit. Quality measures come in at 2 out of 5. Ask how they cover weekends before you decide.
