LAKEWOOD HEALTH AND REHAB, LLC

Lakewood Health and Rehab earns an overall 4-star rating, which reflects above-average performance when compared to other nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is a composite picture built from three separate ratings, each measuring something different about the facility. On health inspections, Lakewood scores 4 stars, meaning state surveyors found fewer or less serious problems than most facilities during their routine visits. That's a good sign for families who want to know the facility is being run safely and in line with regulations. On quality measures, another 4-star score, the facility performs above average across 15 clinical indicators that track things like how residents are managing pain, whether they're experiencing falls, or how their physical condition is holding up over time. The one area worth paying attention to is staffing, which comes in at 2 stars, meaning nurse hours per resident fall below average. In practical terms, this can mean residents may wait longer for assistance, and staff may be stretched thin during busy times. It doesn't automatically mean care is poor, but it's something families should ask about directly when they visit. You might ask how the facility handles nights and weekends, or what the typical nurse-to-resident ratio looks like on a given shift. The strong inspection and quality scores suggest the facility is doing a lot right, but understanding the staffing picture will help you get a more complete sense of what day-to-day life looks like for residents there.
