Special Focus Facility

Sapphire Rehabilitation and Care Center is a 113-bed for-profit home in Columbus, and the federal numbers are not kind. Nurse staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends. The bigger problem is turnover: 78.6% annually, against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. Its inspection record shows 87 deficiencies, including 8 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the country's most persistently troubled homes, and fines total $337,273. The quality measure score looks decent, but that's generated from resident assessment data, and it doesn't outweigh a documented staffing and safety record like this.
