Ridgeway Nursing & Rehab

Ridgeway Nursing & Rehab sits in a peaceful, tranquil setting and offers several types of care, from independent living in apartment-like units with housekeeping, laundry centers, and meal programs, to assisted living where staff help with personal care and daily needs, and they keep an eye on residents around the clock, but you'll find they have memory care for people with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia and those services do cost a lot more-about three times higher than standard healthcare if you're over 65. The facility has nursing and rehabilitation therapy, skilled nursing, long-term and respite care, along with engaging activities and personalized plans. There's a real focus on tailoring support to each person, and the staff includes experienced healthcare professionals who deliver specialized nursing care. Ridgeway reports a nurse turnover rate of 50%, which comes in higher than the state average, so you might see new faces often, and the nurse staffing level averages 3.88 hours of care per resident per day. There are 99 beds, and on a usual day, about 89 residents live there. Management's handled by Valley Stream Operator I LLC, while Philipson Family Limited Liability Company has held managerial control since 2016, and the ownership is for-profit, so it's run as a business. Now, looking closer at the inspection history, Ridgeway Nursing & Rehab has 18 deficiencies listed in reports, including one about not meeting nutrition and dietary standards, which posed an immediate risk to residents' health, and another about how resources are managed, which was also marked as an immediate danger, plus there's a deficiency for infection control. It's a special focus facility, meaning the government's keeping a closer watch due to past quality issues, and, in fact, inspections haven't happened on a regular schedule-the last one was delayed by over two years. For people or families who want a place where you can get many levels of care in one setting, with independent living, assisted living, nursing, rehabilitation, and memory care, Ridgeway does provide all these services, although the history of deficiencies, higher nurse turnover, and the increased cost for memory care might be things to think about.
