Our read on River Heights Healthcare Center

River Heights Healthcare Center runs 60 certified beds in Greenville under corporate for-profit ownership, and its 3.43 nurse staffing hours per resident day sit roughly 11 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are the bigger concern, staffing drops about 21 percent below the home's own weekday level, which is when gaps tend to show up in real care. The inspection record carries 25 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, along with one $8,800 fine; the most recent inspection was May 2026. Federal ratings put health inspections and quality measures both at 2 out of 5, with staffing at 3. If you're weighing this one, ask directly how weekend coverage is handled and what changed after those abuse-related findings.
