Is any Greater Dayton nursing home on CMS's Special Focus list?
Yes: CMS lists Trotwood Health & Rehab (SFF Candidate) in its Special Focus Facility program for homes with persistent serious quality problems.
Each home's page carries its latest inspection date, deficiency counts, fines and staffing from CMS Care Compare.
How well staffed are Dayton's nursing homes?
Among the 20 Dayton-address nursing homes with CMS staffing data, total nurse staffing runs from 3.02 to 4.78 hours per resident per day (median 3.67), and median nursing staff turnover is 52.5%.
Those figures come from payroll records homes submit to CMS. Each facility page sets its own hours and turnover against the six-county median, a quick way to spot a thinly staffed building before you visit.
Which Greater Dayton nursing homes share a campus with assisted living?
18 nursing homes in the six counties share a street address with a licensed RCF on ODH's roster: Forest Glen Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center, Springfield Health Care Center, Vancrest of New Carlisle, Wooded Glen, Brethren Retirement Community, Village Green Health Campus, Trinity Community at Beavercreek, Trinity Community at Fairborn, Village at the Greene, ARC at Trotwood, Brookhaven Nursing & Rehabilitation Center, Cypress Pointe Health Campus, Oak Creek Terrace, Sanctuary at Wilmington Place, St Leonard, Vienna Springs Health Campus, Greenbriar Care Community, Vancrest Health Care Center of Eaton.
On a shared campus a resident can usually move from assisted living to nursing care, or return after rehab, without changing communities, which matters when one spouse stays in assisted living. Several are church-affiliated or fraternal retirement communities with their own admission priorities, so ask early whether Medicaid is accepted later.
