No Medicare penalties on record
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 71% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. 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.
Kempsville Health & Rehab Center receives polarized feedback, with many families praising the facility's cleanliness, therapy team, and festive community events. However, a significant number of reviewers report serious concerns regarding neglect, specifically citing slow response times to call lights, hygiene issues, and inconsistent communication from nursing and administrative staff. Prospective families should be aware that while some report excellent care, others describe a facility that is understaffed and unresponsive to urgent medical needs.

Key Review Excerpts
“The therapy team is phenomenal and very patient and her care team assisted us any way we needed.”
“My mother has been at this facility almost a week and has steadily declined each day she has been here. Instead of being provided a bedside commode she is forced to wear diapers and she is left to sit in her feces for hours at a time.”
“The only unpleasant thing was the food, depending on the type of diet you were on. The food was good if you were not restricted.”
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 concerning pattern of recurring issues across three surveys from 2017-2022, with problems repeatedly identified in care planning, wound care, and infection control. The most serious deficiency involved actual harm from pressure ulcer care failures in 2022, and multiple issues with care planning and infection prevention have persisted across all three inspections despite reported corrections. While all deficiencies were officially corrected, the recurring nature of fundamental care issues suggests ongoing quality challenges families should carefully consider.

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.
