What to Look for When Visiting CONTINUING CARE AT HIGHLAND SPRINGS

Use this checklist during an in-person visit. First impressions reveal more than brochures or websites ever will.

Is there an unpleasant smell?

A persistent odor (urine, feces, or heavy chemical deodorizer) indicates poor hygiene maintenance. Brief cooking smells are normal; lingering waste odors are not.

Are residents engaged or sitting idle?

Active residents (playing games, talking, in therapy) indicate quality programming. A room full of people staring at a TV during daytime is a concerning sign.

Count staff vs. residents during your visit

CONTINUING CARE AT HIGHLAND SPRINGS reports 4.2 total nurse hours per resident per day. During your visit, observe whether staff seem rushed or overwhelmed — the real ratio matters more than reported numbers.

Ask about staff consistency

Staff turnover is 31.4% — near the national average. Still ask whether your family member will have consistent caregivers assigned.

Ask about their most recent inspection

5 deficiencies were found in the last inspection. Ask specifically: "What were they, and what have you done to fix them?" A transparent facility will answer clearly.
