Many Ohio Nursing Homes Worst-Rated in Country
Fifteen nursing homes throughout Northeast Ohio are among the worst-rated facilities in the nation and show no signs of improving, according to an USA Today analysis of ratings given by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
The ratings take into consideration patient abuse, cleanliness of the facility and equipment, staff licensing and quality of overall patient care.
One nursing home saw its ratings drop from 5 stars to 2 stars after a hidden camera caught nurse’s aides repeatedly abusing a resident.
These fifteen nursing homes have been rated as well below average for the last three years, even as more homes across the country have seen their ratings improve:
- City View Nursing and Rehabilitation, Cleveland
- Diplomat Healthcare, North Royalton
- Good Samaritan Nursing Home, Avon
- Grande Point Healthcare, Richmond Heights
- Indian Hills Nursing Home, Euclid
- Laurels of Canton, Canton
- Maple Wood Care Centre, Streetsboro
- McKinley Health Care Center, Canton
- Middlebury Manor, Akron
- Oak Hills Nursing Center, Lorain
- Park East Care and Rehabilitation, Beachwood
- Rudwick Manor, Cleveland
- Suburban Pavilion, Cleveland
- Valley Renaissance Healthcare Center, Boardman
- Woodlands at Robinson, Ravenna
