Lee Healthcare is a medium-sized senior care facility with 88 beds, operating under for-profit, LLC ownership. The care home provides both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care services, participating in both Medicare and Medicaid programs. It is not part of a continuing care retirement community. Residents of Lee Healthcare receive an average of 3 hours and 32 minutes of nurse staffing per day, with consistency in staffing levels maintained on weekends as well as weekdays.
For residents requiring short-term rehabilitation—such as after a hospital stay for stroke, heart attack, or injury—Lee Healthcare offers a supportive environment geared toward recovery. Nearly half of the residents are able to return home following their rehabilitation stay, and the facility works to minimize risks such as falls and infections that require hospitalization. Data show that a low percentage of residents experienced major injuries from falls, while infection-related hospitalizations did occur but were monitored closely. Emergency room visits among short-term residents are tracked, and the staff aim to provide attentive care to lessen the need for such visits.
Lee Healthcare also provides comprehensive long-term nursing care for individuals who need daily assistance with both medical and non-medical needs. Residents benefit from support in self-care tasks such as mobility, eating, and personal hygiene, with most maintaining their ability to manage many of these activities independently. Preventative care is emphasized, as indicated by a high flu vaccination rate among residents.
The facility is subject to regular state health, fire, and safety inspections. Past reports highlight areas the staff continually work to improve, including timely communication with residents and their families, proper documentation of Medicare and Medicaid coverage, timely development of individualized care plans, and the provision of safe and appropriate respiratory and behavioral health care services. The facility also maintains transparency with nurse staffing information and offers education on residents’ rights regarding binding arbitration agreements. Lee Healthcare has taken steps to address all cited issues, ensuring continuous improvement in care and safety standards for its residents.
While Lee Healthcare has had infractions in the past and paid fines, it continually strives to enhance the quality of life for its residents by focusing on both physical health and behavioral care. The community is dedicated to fostering an environment where residents are supported, families are informed, and health needs are met with professionalism and compassion.
