CMS has published limited rating data for this facility. That is common for newly certified facilities and does not by itself indicate a problem. Federal regulators have fined this facility $168,680 in the last three years. None of this tells you whether a bed is open, whether your insurance is in network, or whether the facility will accept a given level of care — confirm those three directly with the facility before you commit.
