Jacksonville Nursing And Rehab Center

Jacksonville Nursing And Rehab Center holds an overall 5-star rating, which is the highest possible score on the CMS scale. That overall rating is a composite built from three separate scores, so it helps to look at each one individually to understand what the facility is actually doing well and where there may be room for improvement.

The 4-star health inspection rating means state surveyors found fewer or less serious citations than most facilities, which is a good sign that the building is generally meeting care and safety standards. The 5-star quality measures rating is the strongest piece of the picture, reflecting that residents here tend to have better clinical outcomes across 15 tracked health indicators, things like wound care, fall injuries, and infection rates. The one area worth noting is the 2-star staffing rating, which falls below average and means nurses are spending fewer hours per resident per day than what CMS considers typical. For families, that can translate to longer waits for assistance or less individualized attention during busy periods. It is worth asking the facility directly about their staffing model and how they manage coverage. Despite that lower staffing score, the strong quality outcomes suggest the staff they do have may be working effectively, but it is a reasonable question to raise during your visit.

Staffing at Jacksonville Nursing And Rehab Center is a bit of a mixed picture. On the registered nurse side, this facility actually comes in slightly above average, with residents receiving about 0.54 RN hours per day compared to the Florida average of 0.52. That small difference may not sound like much, but RNs handle more complex medical decisions, so having a touch more of that coverage can matter during health changes or emergencies. Where things dip is in total nurse hours, which includes RNs, LPNs, and certified nursing assistants all combined. Residents here receive about 3.60 total nurse hours per day, while the average across Florida nursing homes is 3.87. In practical terms, that gap means staff may be stretched a bit thinner when it comes to everyday hands-on care like helping with meals, mobility, bathing, and responding to call lights. It does not necessarily mean care is poor, but families should feel comfortable asking the facility how they manage staffing on evenings and weekends, when coverage tends to be lighter at most facilities regardless.

Jacksonville Nursing and Rehab Center has a solid inspection track record. It holds a 4 out of 5 star health inspection rating, which puts it above average compared to many facilities in the state. There are no government penalties on record and no fines have been issued, which is genuinely good news for families doing their research. While no facility is perfect, the absence of penalties suggests that when inspectors have flagged concerns over the years, they were not serious enough to result in formal enforcement action. This is the kind of history that should give families a reasonable level of confidence as they weigh their options.
