These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
No Medicare penalties on record
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 70% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 13 findings, above the FL average of 7.3. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Alpine Health and Rehabilitation Center receives highly polarized feedback, with some families praising the attentive staff and rehab services, while others report severe concerns regarding patient safety and neglect. Critical reviews frequently cite issues with medication management, lack of responsiveness, and poor facility maintenance. Prospective families should be aware of the stark contrast between recent positive experiences and serious allegations of medical mismanagement.

Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

This facility shows a persistent pattern of deficiencies across multiple areas, with families filing at least one complaint that triggered an inspection regarding medication management. The most recurring issues involve food safety and dietary services, appearing in three of four surveys, along with ongoing problems with fire safety systems and medication services. While the facility has corrected most violations, the repeated food safety violations and the fact that families have raised concerns suggest ongoing operational challenges that warrant careful consideration during your visit.
