What does Southbrook Healthcare Center's CMS record suggest asking?
Let the CMS figures set the agenda: ask for the plan of correction covering the 16 deficiencies cited May 27, 2025, and what is different now.
- Turnover of 38.2% is at or under the six-county median; ask which charge nurses have worked nights the longest.
- Ask what prompted $18,470 in CMS fines and whether the underlying problem is closed.
- Occupancy is about 82%; ask which halls have open beds and why.
- CMS lists a resident council; ask when it meets and whether family members may attend.
- If Medicaid may pay later, confirm Southbrook Healthcare Center accepts Ohio Medicaid for long stays and whether a resident must move rooms when payment switches.
