Is Forest Park Nursing and Rehabilitation a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

There are no official resident reviews of nursing homes: Medicare's Care Compare publishes inspections, staffing and quality data instead. Here is what that record shows for Forest Park Nursing and Rehabilitation as of October 2026.

CMS rates it 1 out of 5 stars overall, below the Pennsylvania average of 3.0. Inspectors issued 94 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 4 penalties, including $183,667 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 2 out of 5; for long-term residents, 2 out of 5.

Staffing

Nursing staff spend about 3.44 hours per resident per day at Forest Park Nursing and Rehabilitation, below the Pennsylvania median of 3.64 (US median: 3.72). About 0.39 of those hours are from registered nurses. On weekends it falls to 3.12 hours, 9% below its all-week average. 71.3% of nursing staff left within a year (Pennsylvania median 44.6%).

Paying for care at Forest Park Nursing and Rehabilitation: Medicare and Medicaid

Forest Park Nursing and Rehabilitation is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid. 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 Pennsylvania's income and asset rules. Being certified doesn't guarantee a Medicaid bed is open, so ask whether the home accepts residents whose Medicaid application is still pending.

In 2026 Medicare covers days 1–20 in full after the Part A deductible ($1,736 per benefit period); for days 21–100 you pay $217 a day; after day 100 you pay all costs. Medicare doesn't pay for long-term custodial care. Medicare's coverage rules.

Questions to ask on a tour of Forest Park Nursing and Rehabilitation

  1. Inspectors cited the home at the immediate-jeopardy level on February 14, 2025 under the rule on freedom from abuse, neglect, and exploitation. What changed afterwards, and can I see the plan of correction?
  2. CMS cited the home under its abuse and neglect rules on June 10, 2025. How are staff trained, and how are concerns reported?
  3. CMS rates staffing 2 out of 5. How many residents does each nurse aide care for on day, evening and night shifts?
  4. Nursing staff turnover was 71.3% a year. How many of the staff come from agencies?
  5. CMS rates short-stay quality 2 out of 5. How often do rehab patients go back to the hospital, and how many therapy sessions a week are typical?
  6. Do you have a Medicaid bed open now, and will you admit someone whose Medicaid application is still pending?
  7. When is the first care-plan meeting, and can family attend?

Questions come from this home's CMS data: its inspections, staffing and ownership record.
