Is Trend Health & Rehab of Meridian a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 4 out of 5 stars overall, above the Mississippi average of 2.8. Inspectors issued 13 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 1 penalty, including $4,516 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 3 out of 5; for long-term residents, 1 out of 5. Those results differ a lot, so ask about the unit your family member would be on.

Medicare Part A can cover a short skilled-nursing or rehab stay here after a qualifying hospital stay of at least three inpatient days (observation days don't count), for up to 100 days per benefit period. Medicaid can pay for long-term care for residents who meet Mississippi's income and asset rules.
