The strongest predictors of care quality at a senior-care community aren't in the brochure. Ask the overnight caregiver-to-resident ratio (daytime numbers hide the real picture), staff turnover rate over the past year, and how long the administrator has been in place. Ask what care needs would force a move-out and how the care plan is reviewed. Walk the halls during a meal and an activity — notice whether residents are engaged. Verify the facility's PA license and inspection history through the correct DHS or DOH facility search.
