Our read on Granite Rehabilitation And Wellness

Granite Rehabilitation and Wellness runs 146 certified beds in Cheyenne under corporate for-profit ownership that changed hands within the past year. Nurse staffing sits at 3.51 hours per resident day, roughly 9 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 6 percent below the home's own weekday levels. Staff turnover, at 44.3 percent, is close to the national figure, so retention here isn't the outlier. What stands out is the inspection record: 25 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to signal harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $15,548. A recent inspection date of March 2026 means the picture is current. The staffing star rating of 4 doesn't square neatly with those hours, which land below average, so weigh the inspection findings heavily.
