Its ownership type, listed in Facility details, can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. Occupancy of about 91% puts this facility in normal territory for a stabilized operation, neither unusually full nor unusually empty.
Same-ownership peers

Its 2-star overall rating sits below the for profit - corporation-segment average of 3.4 stars, ahead of roughly 12% of same-ownership peers in the state.
