Is Cedar Hill Nursing and Rehab Center a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 2 out of 5 stars overall, below the Florida average of 3.3. Inspectors issued 11 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 2 penalties, including $21,921 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 2 out of 5; for long-term residents, 5 out of 5. Those results differ a lot, so ask about the unit your family member would be on.
