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 76% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 28 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.
Good Shepherd Village receives polarized feedback, with many families praising the facility for successful rehabilitation outcomes and compassionate care during the 2020 period. However, recent reviews from 2025 and 2026 highlight significant concerns regarding poor communication, difficulty reaching staff by phone, and a perceived decline in care quality due to staffing shortages.

Key Review Excerpts
“I went from having to be hoisted out of bed to a wheelchair to being able to walk!!! Needless to say, I couldn’t have done this without the meticulous care I received.”
“I get so tired of calling and calling no one answers not even office people . Normally I call multiple times bc I understand how busy it probably is in there. However today I called 6 times!”
“The current patient volume is exceeding the capacity of our caregiving staff, resulting in an unsustainable workload. Caregivers are continuously attending to patients with minimal respite.”
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.
