Our read on Forest Ridge Health And Rehab Llc

Forest Ridge runs about 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 10% below its own weekday coverage. Annual turnover sits at 52.9% against a national 45.8%, so more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows 15 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. Recent inspections in early 2026 and four-star ratings on health inspections and quality measures are real strengths, but the staffing gap and that harm-level finding are what pull it down.
