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.
No Medicare penalties on record
Respiratory and Nursing Center of Dayton has a strong overall Medicare rating. Public reviewers frequently mention: specialized ventilator and respiratory care and dedicated therapy department. Review the component ratings and current source records before deciding.
Families should exercise extreme caution, as many recent reviews report severe issues with neglect, improper medication administration, and poor hygiene. While some residents have successfully transitioned from ventilators to home care, a significant number of reviewers describe a pattern of slow call light responses and inadequate physical care.

Key Review Excerpts
“They took amazing care of my mother. She was there on a ventilator and dialysis. She had many struggles with her health, but their respiratory team was always quick in to action.”
“Nurses were always gossiping or sitting on their phones rather than helping him or us while trying to get their attention, which often took a while/a lot.”
“Great facility my brother has been at the facility on and off for several years and has successfully been weaned from the ventilator and returned home.”
