Our read on Wesley Place On Honeysuckle

Wesley Place On Honeysuckle runs 4.95 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing holds within about 4% of weekdays. That's a real strength. But the inspection record is where this home gets tripped up: 15 deficiencies on file, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus 12 fines totaling $48,689. The most recent inspection was in March 2024, so the record is current, not stale. Ownership is nonprofit, which sometimes signals steadier resources, but it hasn't translated into a clean survey history here. Good staffing, uneven compliance. If you tour, ask directly what those two harm-level deficiencies involved and what changed since.
