What to ask about before you visit

Our read on Albertville Nursing Home

Albertville Nursing Home runs on unusually heavy staffing for a for-profit corporate home, 5.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, which is why its staffing rating tops out. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekdays, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 46%, essentially the national average, so the extra hours don't come with unusual churn. Nine deficiencies are on record with nothing at the harm or abuse level, and the last inspection was November 2019, a long stretch without a fresh look, worth asking about directly.
