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.
Medicare Special Focus status indicates a history of serious quality problems and heightened oversight. Review the latest inspection records, ask what corrective actions remain open, and visit in person before deciding.
Families should exercise extreme caution due to serious reports of safety lapses, including unmonitored resident movement and failure to follow dietary care plans. While recent reviews under new management suggest improvements in renovations and staff warmth, significant concerns regarding communication, facility maintenance, and staffing levels persist.

Key Review Excerpts
“Under new management! CCH is a great company and is well known in Cincinnati! They are starting renovations and revamping the building. The staff are warm and welcoming.”
“Unsafe and poorly organized facility with minimal staff coverage and supervisors hard to locate. Essential structure is lacking, making it difficult to provide safe patient care.”
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.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
