COLUMBIANA HEALTH AND REHABILITATION, LLC

Columbiana Health and Rehabilitation earns an overall 4-star rating from CMS, which means it performs above average compared to nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is built from three separate ratings, each measuring something different, and in this case all three land in the same solid place. The health inspection rating of 4 stars tells you that state inspectors found fewer or less serious problems here than at most facilities, which is a good sign that the home is being run carefully and consistently. The staffing rating of 4 stars reflects that nurses and aides are spending more time with residents than the typical facility, meaning your loved one is less likely to wait long for help or attention. The quality measures rating of 4 stars looks at 15 clinical outcomes, things like whether residents are developing pressure wounds, experiencing falls, or losing mobility, and this score suggests residents here are generally faring better than average on those health markers. Taken together, all three ratings pointing above average gives families a reasonable level of confidence that this is a well-run facility worth serious consideration.
