No Medicare penalties on record
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 55% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 9 findings, above the LA average of 8.3. 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.
St. Joseph Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation receives high praise for its admissions team and physical therapy department, with many families noting the staff's dedication and professionalism. However, some reviewers have raised concerns regarding inconsistent patient monitoring and reported staffing shortages, suggesting that the quality of care may vary depending on the specific shift or department.

Key Review Excerpts
“My husband spent over 2 months in skilled care and Physical Therapy. He went in barely able to stand and left on a walker, feeling safe and confident in his ability to continue his recovery at home.”
“The ENTIRE STAFF at St. Joseph Continuing Care facility has truly been a blessing to my grandmother (and my family) during her two different stays this year. When my grandmother was sent there the first time earlier this year, the staff was so welcoming, accommodating and very professional.”
“She help with explain meds and test resylts when I didn't undwrstand. She is a diamond.”
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.
