Our read on Place At Deans Bridge, The

The Place At Deans Bridge runs 100 certified beds in Augusta under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the strong point: seven deficiencies on file, none reaching harm or jeopardy level, and no abuse findings. That’s a clean survey history by any reasonable standard, and a July 2025 inspection means the picture is current. The staffing numbers pull the other way. A one-star CMS staffing rating sits well below what you'd want, and the 37.3% annual turnover, better than the national 45.8% average, still means more than a third of the direct-care workforce changed over in a year. Two fines totaling $7,456 are modest. Ask specifically who's on the floor overnight and how long the current director of nursing has been in the role.
