What this means for your family

While the facility offers strong physical therapy and community activities, the recurring reports of unaddressed fall risks and neglect are deeply concerning. We strongly advise families to conduct an unannounced visit and specifically ask for the facility's recent state survey results regarding fall prevention and skin care protocols.

Key Review Excerpts

My mom was admitted with a broken femur at the end of January. They repeatedly forgot her meds. They let her lay in bed with extremely low blood sugar for hours!

Long-term resident's family · 2020☆☆☆☆

My family member was unable to speak due to their health condition. As a result lack of care was given because most staff thought my family member wasn't mentally aware of their surroundings. The total impact of this were the following weight loss, a torn private area dude from catheter being pulled, not one but two bed sores in one week.

Long-term resident's family · 2025☆☆☆☆

This facility is pretty but the care is horrible. My mother went 3 weeks and got bed baths only, until I said something. The air bed she had was a joke and not working properly.

3 complaint-triggered

Ohio Valley Manor has faced recurring deficiencies in fire safety systems, food service operations, and medication management across multiple surveys, with three complaint-triggered investigations including issues with abuse reporting and resident safety. While all violations have been corrected by the facility, the pattern of repeated problems in critical safety areas like fire protection and dietary services, plus families filing formal complaints, suggests families should carefully evaluate current conditions during visits.
