Our read on Colonial Nursing And Rehabilitation Center

Colonial Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 48 certified beds in Bowling Green under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.81 nurse hours per resident day. That gap is small, but weekends run about 15% leaner than weekdays, which matters when care needs don't pause on Saturday. The 43.1% annual turnover is slightly better than the national 45.8%, so staff tenure isn't the main concern here. What pulls the record down is the inspection history: 13 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus a single $56,814 fine. The health and quality measure ratings both land at 4 out of 5, and the last inspection was April 2026, so the picture is recent. The staffing rating of 3 is the softer spot.
