Is Beckley Healthcare 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 Beckley Healthcare Center as of October 2026.

CMS rates it 2 out of 5 stars overall, below the West Virginia average of 3.1. Inspectors issued 62 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 3 penalties, including $69,433 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 5 out of 5; for long-term residents, 5 out of 5.

Staffing

Nursing staff spend about 3.33 hours per resident per day at Beckley Healthcare Center, below the West Virginia median of 3.48 (US median: 3.72). About 0.57 of those hours are from registered nurses. On weekends it falls to 2.65 hours, 20% below its all-week average. Ask how weekends are staffed. 55.9% of nursing staff left within a year (West Virginia median 42.3%).

Paying for care at Beckley Healthcare Center: Medicare and Medicaid

Beckley Healthcare 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 West 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.
