Our read on Sunny Hills Post Acute
Sunny Hills Post Acute runs on a for-profit LLC model with 142 beds, and its staffing numbers look better than most, 4.14 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average, with turnover at 38.1% compared to 45.8% nationally. Weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday staffing, which is worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record is where the picture darkens. A 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 89 deficiencies on file, three of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and five tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $89,134 sit on the record, and the most recent inspection was February 26, 2026. Strong quality measure scores don't cancel out an inspection history like that, ask hard questions before you sign anything.
