Our read on Village House Nursing & Rehabilitation Center

Village House runs on a thinner nursing staff than most places, about 3.35 hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends get leaner still, roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. What stands out in the other direction is retention: 28.6% turnover is well under the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses you'd meet have tended to stay. The inspection record is recent and largely clean, with 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm level, and a single $8,018 fine. Quality measures are where this home slips, though; the clinical outcomes data is markedly weaker than its staffing and inspection results suggest.
