Every month from September 2016 to March 2018, COVINGTON COURT HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER received a HEALTH INSPECTION rating of 1-star out of 5 from CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services), the lowest rating possible for a nursing home.

Every nursing home in the United States that participates in Medicare/Medicaid is required to be inspected by state surveyors approximately once a year.  Any deficiencies found are reported, and the nursing home is required to submit a written Plan of Correction to the government, explaining what steps the facility has implemented in order to correct the deficiency and to prevent it from reoccurring.

From May 11, 2012 to November 11, 2017, COVINGTON COURT HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER was cited a total of 7 times for the same deficiency—failing to provide necessary care and service to maintain the highest well being of each resident (F-Tag 309).   In other words, COVINGTON COURT HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER had already submitted to the government six (6) written Plans of Correction for the same deficient practice (that should have been corrected) by the time it was cited for the same violation of federal law again on November 11, 2017.  This history raises the questions of just how intent COVINGTON COURT HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER was in correcting known issues regarding providing necessary care and services to residents and how meaningful its express, written assurances have been to the government.

If you or a loved one have received deficient care at COVINGTON COURT HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER, we would like to hear your story.

Personal Note from NHA–Advocates: NHAA shares with all the families of loved ones who are confined to nursing homes the pain and anguish of putting them in the care of someone else. We expect our loved ones to be treated with dignity and honor in the homes we place them. We cannot emphasize enough to family members of nursing home residents; frequent visits are essential to our loved ones’ well-being and safety. This nursing home and many others across the country are cited for abuse and neglect.
