Is Highland Pointe Health & Rehab Center a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 1 out of 5 stars overall, below the Ohio average of 3.2. Inspectors issued 25 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 2 penalties, including $128,606 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.
