Marianna Health And Rehabilitation

Marianna Health And Rehabilitation holds a 4-star overall rating from CMS, meaning it performs above average compared to nursing homes nationwide. That overall number is a composite of three separate scores, each measuring something different. The health inspection rating of 4 stars tells you that state inspectors found fewer or less serious problems here than at most facilities, which is a good sign that the home is being run responsibly day to day. The staffing rating of 4 stars means nurses and aides are spending more time with residents than the average facility does, so your loved one is less likely to have to wait long for help or attention. The quality measures rating, also 4 stars, reflects how residents are actually doing physically and clinically across 15 tracked outcomes, things like whether residents are developing pressure sores, losing function, or experiencing pain. Above average here means the care is translating into real results for the people living there.

The fact that all three components land at 4 stars is reassuring because it shows the strong overall rating is not being carried by just one area. Some facilities score well on inspections but fall short on staffing, or vice versa. When the ratings are consistent across the board, as they are here, it gives families a more complete picture that the facility is performing well in multiple ways at once, not just checking one box.

Staffing at Marianna Health and Rehabilitation is a bit of a mixed picture compared to other Florida nursing homes. On the registered nurse (RN) side, residents here actually get more one-on-one time than the state average - about 0.76 RN hours per resident each day versus Florida's average of 0.52. In practical terms, that means a more experienced, higher-credentialed nurse is more likely to be on hand when something important comes up, like a change in condition or a medication concern. When you look at total nursing hours, though, which includes aides and other nursing staff, the facility comes in slightly below the Florida average at 3.75 hours per resident compared to 3.87 statewide. The difference is relatively small, but it can add up during busy shifts when residents need help with meals, mobility, or personal care. Overall, the stronger RN presence is a positive sign, while the slightly lower total staffing is something worth asking the facility about directly during a visit.

Marianna Health And Rehabilitation has a solid inspection track record, holding a 4 out of 5 star health inspection rating from the government. Just as importantly, the facility has no penalties on record and has never been fined, which means regulators have not found issues serious enough to warrant formal action against them. That kind of clean history is worth noting, since penalties and fines can be a red flag for families trying to gauge how well a facility is run and how consistently it meets care standards. No record is perfect, and inspections can still turn up smaller concerns, but this facility appears to have handled those without escalating consequences.
