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.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 67% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 24 findings, above the OH average of 10.1. 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.
Divine Rehabilitation and Nursing at Sylvania receives highly polarized feedback, with some families praising the therapy team and individual staff members, while others report severe neglect, poor communication, and staffing shortages.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was a resident at Divine of Sylvania and she received wonderful care. The Nursing Staff were very kind and took very good care of my mother.”
“My husband has been there for 2 weeks, having him moved. They are under staffed. It takes hours before he's put in a chair, he lays or sits in filth.”
“My dad was a resident here while on hospice. He was shown the upmost respect and kindness from the staff. He passed in late January but the aides, nurses, housekeeping, and all other staff were so gracious to him.”
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.
