Our read on Sunshine Terrace Skilled Nursing

Sunshine Terrace is run by a hospital district, which usually brings some stability, but the numbers here tell a different story. The health inspection rating sits at the bottom of the scale, and the record shows 29 deficiencies, including two that put residents in immediate harm and four tied to abuse, that's a lot to carry, and it points to problems that show up in practice, not just on paper. Staffing is also rated 1 out of 5, and turnover runs slightly above the national average at 47.2%, so the people caring for residents are cycling through quickly. The most recent inspection was in April 2026, so the picture is current.

Written from the CMS figures for this home shown further down this page. Nothing here is paid for or supplied by the home.
