It is run for profit and is part of the CommuniCare family of companies, a network of about 121 nursing and rehab centers across six states. Nearby CommuniCare homes include Austintown and Canfield Healthcare Centers in Youngstown and Dixon Healthcare Center in Wintersville.

Federal regulators give it 3 out of 5 stars overall, an average score. Staffing is rated 4 stars and quality measures 5 stars, while health inspections are the weak spot at 2 stars. Star ratings come from official government health inspections and reporting - they are a regulatory measure, not family reviews.

Health inspections are rated 2 stars, with 13 deficiencies, three infection-control citations, and one fine of about 14,700 dollars. Ask what the inspectors cited, how each problem was fixed, and how the home handles handwashing, cleaning, and illness outbreaks today. Always confirm services, availability, and coverage directly with the facility before making a decision.

Staffing is a relative strength at 4 stars. Registered-nurse turnover is reported at about 19 percent and overall nursing turnover at about 30 percent, both lower than at many homes in this chain. Ask how many nurses and aides are on each shift, especially at night and on weekends.

You can reach the home at 330-726-3700, the number listed on its pages. Its admissions team says it takes admissions 24/7, is a VA contracted center for veterans, is government-certified, and accepts private pay. Ask how your own coverage or plan would apply.
