Our read on Mesa Glen Care Center
Mesa Glen runs a for-profit operation with 96 certified beds, and 144 deficiencies sit on its current record, a number worth pausing on, since 18 of those are abuse-related and three rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. Federal inspectors have flagged the Glendora home as a Special Focus Facility, a designation reserved for the small share of nursing homes with a pattern of persistent problems; two fines totaling $103,080 are also on file. Nurse staffing averages 4.11 hours per resident day, which beats the national figure, but turnover sits at 63.2 percent and weekend coverage drops about 8 percent below weekdays, so the hours look better on paper than they likely feel on a Sunday.
