Compare Providers

Two or three providers side by side, across the public record: licensing, ratings, inspections, penalties, staffing, ownership, and what care costs locally. Where no agency publishes a figure for a kind of provider, the cell says so rather than sitting empty next to a number and reading like a low score.

Taeckens Terrace vs. Ballard Village

Care types

What each provider is licensed or certified to deliver. Different care types answer to different regulators, which is why the rows below are not always comparable.

Taeckens Terrace

Affordable Senior Apartments

Ballard Village

Affordable Senior Apartments

Licensed capacity

Beds or units on the license. A capacity, not an occupancy.

Taeckens Terrace

91 beds or units

Ballard Village

61 beds or units

License status

The status word the state registry uses, reproduced exactly. We do not translate or grade it.

Taeckens Terrace

Issued by HUD · License S202-800061713

Ballard Village

Issued by HUD · License S202-800232196

Published rating

Whatever the publishing regulator published, on the scale the regulator used. Nothing here is rescaled to five stars.

Not a like-for-like comparison. No public system publishes published rating for either of these providers, so there is nothing to compare here for either one.

Taeckens Terrace

Not comparable

Affordable senior apartments are housing rather than licensed care, so no agency rates the care at one. HUD and the Michigan housing finance agency that fund these properties publish rent limits and unit counts, not a quality rating. HUD does inspect the physical condition of the buildings it subsidises, and where it has inspected this one that score is under Inspection history below.

Inspection citations

How many citations are on record, and how recent the newest one is.

Taeckens Terrace

None on record

HUD has published no physical inspection for this property. We hold HUD's whole REAC inspection file for its assisted housing portfolio, which records every inspection HUD has scored since 2000, and this building does not appear in it. A property is usually absent because it entered the portfolio after HUD's last inspection round.

Fines and payment denials

Enforcement actions on record, with the total fine amount where the source publishes one.

Not a like-for-like comparison. No public system publishes fines and payment denials for either of these providers, so there is nothing to compare here for either one.

Taeckens Terrace

Not comparable

CMS's civil money penalty file covers certified nursing homes. Affordable senior apartments are housing rather than licensed care, so no property in the program appears in it. Compliance for these buildings runs through HUD or the housing finance agency that funds them.

Nurse staffing hours

Payroll-based nurse hours per resident per day, against the median for the same state.

Not a like-for-like comparison. No public system publishes nurse staffing hours for either of these providers, so there is nothing to compare here for either one.

Taeckens Terrace

Not comparable

Staffing hours are published for nursing homes and for no other kind of provider. Affordable senior apartments are housing rather than licensed care, run by property management, and no agency collects a staffing return for them.

Ballard Village

Not comparable

Staffing hours are published for nursing homes and for no other kind of provider. Affordable senior apartments are housing rather than licensed care, run by property management, and no agency collects a staffing return for them.

Ownership and chain

Who owns the provider, and who runs it when those are different companies.

Not a like-for-like comparison. Both providers have ownership and chain on record, but for at least one of them we cannot confirm we hold the complete file. Read the smaller number as "at least this many" rather than as a total, and the gap between the columns as unknown.

Taeckens Terrace

Independent Management Services

Managed by Independent Management Services, who runs it rather than owns it

Ballard Village

Independent Management Services

Managed by Independent Management Services, who runs it rather than owns it

Typical local cost

The published monthly median for this care type in this provider's city. A market figure, never a price quoted by this provider.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold no typical local cost for either of these providers, and cannot yet say whether that means there is nothing to report or a file we have not read. Nothing here should be read as a difference between them.

Taeckens Terrace

We have not published a monthly median for this care type in Davison, MI yet.

Ballard Village

We have not published a monthly median for this care type in Davison, MI yet.

Reading the blanks

A blank cell on this page is never just missing. It is one of three claims, and they mean very different things.

None on record.
We hold the whole published file for this measure and this provider is not in it. A real zero, and a finding in its own right.
Not comparable.
No agency publishes this measure for this kind of provider, so no provider of its kind has one. Shown hatched, because it is not a score at all.
Not established.
We cannot yet say whether the silence means a clean record or a file we have not read. We would rather tell you that than guess.
