Sunny Acres Nursing Home has 99 certified beds and manages both short-term rehabilitation and long-term skilled nursing care, and the home sits under the management of Heritage Operations Group LLC since 2017 with Patricia Carpenter taking over management in 2023, and, while the team does work to provide person-centered care that supports residents' dignity and independence, there's been a high nurse turnover rate at 54.7%, which is above the state average, and a nurse staffing level slightly below the state average at 3.29 nurse hours per resident per day, you'll find services like personal care, housekeeping, laundry, and medical help, with regular in-house visits from medical professionals and specialists who offer therapies including speech, occupational, and physical therapy. The facility holds safety and security important and provides some private rooms and common spaces like a dining room, lounge, and courtyard where recreational, cultural, and spiritual events happen, and there's also a special care unit for people living with Alzheimer's disease and other special needs, but over the years, inspectors have documented a total of 36 deficiencies, including infection control issues and problems with pain management, food handling, nutrition, and overall quality of life-with 13 official deficiencies marked in the March 2025 inspection alone, most notably citations F0880 for lacking infection prevention, F0812 for not handling food correctly, and F0697 for not managing pain safely, so while the home does offer therapy and skilled nursing services in a community setting that supports independence, comfort, and a variety of healthcare needs, it's had a notable history of challenges, especially with infection-related concerns and quality-of-life issues according to official records.

Skilled care, dirty facility, mismanagement
My mom received outstanding skilled nursing and excellent physical therapy - many staff were caring, went above and beyond, meals were good, and her room and dining hall were pleasant in a peaceful rural setting. However the facility is outdated and compact, Alzheimer's residents were mixed with others, and I witnessed neglected/unhealthy conditions: filthy floors, odors, unkempt residents, a disorganized med cart, a swollen foot that wasn't handled well, poor nurse reporting, and an unprofessional DON who yelled - with reports of verbal abuse and troubling supervisor behavior. I appreciate the clinical care but, given the safety, cleanliness, and management concerns (and my complaints being dismissed), I would be very cautious about sending a loved one here.
