Critical concerns include reports of patients being left soiled for hours, difficulty reaching staff by phone, and allegations of insurance-driven overstaying. Families should be aware that experiences appear to vary significantly depending on the floor and individual staff interactions.”

Inspection History
Medicare Inspection History
3-year lookback · Medicare 2026
Fairview Nursing Care Center has shown recurring issues across multiple inspections, with infection control problems appearing in all three surveys (2019, 2021, 2023). Fire safety deficiencies and resident rights violations also persist across multiple inspections. While all violations were reportedly corrected, the pattern of repeated deficiencies in critical areas like infection control and safety suggests ongoing operational challenges families should investigate further during visits.
