Our read on Cumberland Health And Rehab

Cumberland Health and Rehab is a 100-bed nonprofit home in Bridgeport, and its numbers pull in two directions. The care side looks strong on paper: a 5/5 staffing star rating, a 5/5 quality measure rating, and turnover at 35.6%, well below the national average of 45.8%. But the inspection record is where the story turns. Eighteen deficiencies, six of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse, plus a $238,745 fine and a spot in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. Total nurse staffing sits slightly under the national average, and weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays. That last inspection was June 2024, so the record is current.
