Is Bayside Health & Rehabilitation Center 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 Bayside Health & Rehabilitation Center as of October 2026.

CMS rates it 1 out of 5 stars overall, below the Virginia average of 3.1. Inspectors issued 59 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 1 penalty, including $113,068 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 4 out of 5; for long-term residents, 5 out of 5.

Staffing

Nursing staff spend about 3.53 hours per resident per day at Bayside Health & Rehabilitation Center, about the same as the Virginia median of 3.57 (US median: 3.72). About 1.06 of those hours are from registered nurses. On weekends it falls to 3.02 hours, 14% below its all-week average. 75.3% of nursing staff left within a year (Virginia median 47.7%). High turnover can mean residents see unfamiliar caregivers; ask how long the nurses on the unit have worked there.

Paying for care at Bayside Health & Rehabilitation Center: Medicare and Medicaid

Bayside Health & Rehabilitation Center 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 Virginia'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.
