Lake City Healthcare And Rehabilitation Center

Lake City Healthcare And Rehabilitation Center holds an overall 2-star rating from CMS, which means it falls below average compared to other nursing homes nationally. That overall score is built from three separate ratings, and here is how they break down. The 2-star Health Inspection rating tells you that state inspectors found a higher-than-average number of citations, or more serious ones, during their visits, which is worth looking into closely before making a decision. The 2-star Staffing rating means nurses and aides have fewer hours available per resident than what you would typically see at a comparable facility, which can affect how quickly staff respond to residents and how much individual attention each person receives day to day. The one bright spot is the 4-star Quality Measures rating, which is above average. This score is based on 15 clinical and physical health outcomes for residents, things like fall rates, pressure wounds, and how well residents maintain their mobility and daily functioning. A strong score here suggests that despite the staffing and inspection concerns, residents are experiencing relatively good health outcomes overall. Families should weigh all three pieces together rather than focusing on just one number, and it is always a good idea to visit in person, talk to staff, and ask the facility directly about any past inspection findings before deciding.
