WEST VOLUSIA HEALTHCARE AND REHABILITATION CENTER

West Volusia Healthcare And Rehabilitation Center holds an overall 2-star rating from CMS, meaning it falls below average compared to other nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is shaped by three separate ratings that each measure something different. The health inspection rating comes in at 2 stars, which tells you that state inspectors have found a higher-than-average number of citations or more serious violations during their visits. The staffing rating is also 2 stars, meaning residents here receive fewer nurse hours per day than what you'd typically see at comparable facilities. That can translate to longer wait times for assistance and less hands-on attention for each resident. The one bright spot is the quality measures rating, which earned 4 stars. That score looks at 15 clinical outcomes like fall rates, pressure ulcers, and how residents are managing with daily activities, so it suggests the care being delivered is producing reasonably good results in those tracked areas. It's worth noting that strong quality outcomes alongside weaker inspection and staffing scores can feel contradictory, but they measure different things. A facility can show decent clinical results on paper while still having compliance concerns or thinner staffing levels. For families considering this facility, the 4-star quality score is encouraging, but the lower inspection and staffing ratings are worth asking about directly when you tour. Request specifics about what was cited during inspections and what the current nurse-to-resident ratios look like on the shifts when your loved one would need the most support.
