Special Focus Facility

Yazoo City Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center carries 39 deficiencies on its current record, and 13 of those are serious enough to involve actual harm or jeopardy to residents. Four are abuse-related. That combination, along with three fines totaling $211,371, is what put this home in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the country's poorest performers. Staffing sits at 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, about 5 percent under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 17 percent from weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts land when families are least likely to visit. Annual turnover of 47.9 percent runs slightly above the national figure, meaning caregivers cycle through faster than average. Inspectors last visited in November 2024.

Special Focus Facility

Starkville Manor runs 119 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.37 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 13% thinner, with weekends dropping another 11% below its own weekdays. Turnover at 37.6% actually beats the 45.8% national figure, so the problem here isn't retention so much as how few hands are on deck when they do stay. The deficiency record is what stands out: 25 citations, six at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, plus a $51,893 fine and placement in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. That program exists for homes with a pattern of poor care, and a March 2026 inspection is recent enough that the findings are current.

Sunplex Sub-Acute Center is a 73-bed for-profit home in Ocean Springs, and the numbers behind its federal record are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.39 hours per resident day, about 12% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays, gaps that matter most when a resident needs help and fewer hands are on the floor. The inspection history is the bigger concern: 41 deficiencies on the current record, 15 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 3 abuse-related, with four fines totaling $305,999. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which it reserves for the homes with the most persistent problems. Staff turnover of 48.3% runs above the national average, meaning caregivers keep leaving.

Abuse icon on record

Bedford Care Center of Picayune runs 120 beds as a for-profit corporation, and its staffing is the one number that holds up: 3.95 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, though weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage. Almost everything else on the record cuts the other way. State inspectors have cited 26 deficiencies, 12 of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and 6 involving abuse, with two fines totaling $39,392 and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, an active watchlist, not a past blemish. Staff turnover sits at 49.6% against 45.8% nationally, meaning roughly half the caregivers leave each year. The most recent inspection was December 18, 2025.

Pleasant Hills runs 100 certified beds in Jackson under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers show a building under real strain. Nurse staffing sits just under the national average, but weekends drop about 18% below its own weekday level, meaning the coverage families count on Saturday and Sunday is thinner than what the home staffs during the week. Turnover is the bigger signal: 55.3% annually against a 45.8% national average, so nearly six in ten caregivers are leaving each year. That churn shows up in the inspection record, too, 24 deficiencies, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way, two tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $147,937.
