Ft Lauderdale Health & Rehabilitation Center

Ft Lauderdale Health & Rehabilitation Center holds an overall 4-star rating from CMS, which means it performs above average compared to nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is a composite built from three separate ratings, each measuring something different about the facility. Health inspections came in at 3 stars, meaning the facility is about average in terms of the number and seriousness of citations state inspectors have flagged during their visits. That's not a red flag, but it does suggest some room for improvement on the compliance side. Staffing earned 4 stars, which is a good sign. It means residents are getting more nursing time and attention relative to their needs than most facilities can offer. Quality measures hit the top mark at 5 stars, reflecting that across 15 clinical indicators, things like wound care, mobility, pain management, and other real health outcomes, residents are doing very well compared to peers at other facilities. Practically speaking, families can take some comfort here. The standout quality measures score tells you that residents' day-to-day health and physical wellbeing are genuinely strong, and the solid staffing numbers suggest there are enough nurses and aides around to support that. The average health inspection score is worth keeping in mind, and asking the facility directly about any recent citations is always a reasonable step. Overall, though, this is a facility that performs well above the bar where it counts most.
