Gardens At Terracina Health & Rehabilitation

Gardens At Terracina Health & Rehabilitation earns an overall 5-star rating from CMS, which is the highest possible score and places it well above average compared to nursing homes nationally. That overall rating is built from three separate scores that each look at a different piece of the picture. The health inspection rating comes in at 4 stars, meaning state inspectors found fewer or less serious problems here than at most facilities - a good sign that the basics of safety and care standards are being met consistently. The staffing rating is also 4 stars, which tells you nurses and aides are spending more time with residents than they do at the average facility - practically speaking, that means your loved one is less likely to wait long for help or attention. Where Gardens At Terracina really stands out is in its 5-star quality measures score, the highest available, which is based on 15 clinical outcomes like wound care, fall rates, and how well residents maintain their physical functioning. That top score means residents here are experiencing better real-world health outcomes than at the vast majority of nursing homes.

When you put those three pieces together, the overall 5-star rating reflects a facility that performs above average across the board and excels in the outcomes that matter most to residents day to day. For families doing their research, this combination is genuinely reassuring - strong inspections, solid staffing levels, and outstanding clinical results give you a well-rounded picture of a facility that is delivering quality care.

Gardens at Terracina Health & Rehabilitation stands out when it comes to staffing, particularly for registered nurses. The facility provides 1.85 RN hours per resident per day, which is more than three times the Florida average of 0.52. In practical terms, that means residents here are much more likely to have a trained RN nearby when a health concern comes up, rather than waiting for one to become available. Total nurse hours, which include aides and licensed practical nurses alongside RNs, come in at 4.88 per resident per day compared to the Florida average of 3.87. That extra hour of nursing attention each day might not sound like much on paper, but spread across a resident's meals, medications, mobility needs, and personal care, it adds up to a noticeably more attentive environment. Compared to many Florida nursing homes, this facility is putting more hands-on nursing time toward each resident, which is generally a good sign for families who want to feel confident their loved one won't be left waiting for help.

Gardens At Terracina Health & Rehabilitation has a 4 out of 5 star health inspection rating, which is a reasonable indicator that the facility generally meets care standards. There is one government penalty on record, with a fine totaling $6,796, the most recent of which was issued in May 2024. A single penalty of this size is not unusual in the nursing home industry and does not automatically signal serious or ongoing problems, but families should ask the facility directly about what led to that citation and what steps were taken to address it. Overall, the inspection history here is relatively modest, though staying informed and asking questions during any facility tour is always a smart move.
