What to ask about before you visit

These are findings in the public CMS record for this home. They are not our opinion, each one comes straight from a federal inspection or enforcement file.

  • $406,985 in federal fines

    CMS has fined this facility across 4 penalty action(s).

  • Nursing staff turnover of 68%

    High turnover means residents rarely see the same caregiver twice. The national average is about 50%.

Our read on Rivers Edge Nursing And Rehab

Nurse staffing at Rivers Edge runs about 12% under the national average, and weekends are thinner still, roughly 15% below the home's own weekday coverage. That's a real problem when the same record shows 68.2% annual turnover, far above the 45.8% norm, because thin weekend shifts land on aides who may be new to the building. The inspection history is the louder signal: 107 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level, 21 tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $406,985. For-profit corporate ownership, 58 beds, and a December 2025 inspection that's already on the books. Ask about weekend coverage, abuse-prevention training, and what's changed since that visit.
