Score Breakdown
What the numbers mean
Osage Rehab and Health Care Center scored 37 out of 100 — 29 points below the state average of 66.
📋 Inspections: 87 citations over the last 36 months — 57 more than the state average (30). 3 were rated serious (G+) — inspectors found actual or potential harm to residents. 11 findings recurred across inspection cycles — indicating a problem that was not fixed.
⚠️ Staffing: Staffing levels are below average. Lower staffing is associated with longer response times, more pressure injuries, and higher hospitalization rates. Ask the facility directly about their RN-to-resident ratio and how they handle shortfalls.
⚠️ Penalties & enforcement: CMS has recorded 4 enforcement actions totaling $96,561 against this facility. Penalties are only issued after a facility fails two levels of regulatory review — meaning this is a serious escalation beyond a standard citation. Ask for a written explanation of every fine and what corrective actions were taken.
💬 Complaints: Some complaint-driven inspections have occurred. These are unannounced visits triggered by formal concerns from residents, families, or staff. Ask the facility how they handle resident grievances.
📊 Resident quality outcomes: Quality outcome measures are in an acceptable range. Some measures are at or near national benchmarks. Review the quality section in the full report for specifics.
🔍 Most cited areas: The facility had a problem with electrical systems, emergency power, outlets, power strips, generators, utilities, or medical gas handling. These issues can create fire or emergency-response risks., The facility did not fully protect higher-risk rooms or equipment areas, such as storage, laundry, kitchens, or other spaces where fire could start or spread faster.. The full report provides the complete citation record with dates, severity levels, and plain-English descriptions.

Top concern areas
⚖ Penalties & Enforcement
Federal civil monetary penalties (CMPs) are only issued after a facility has failed two levels of regulatory review — meaning problems were found on inspection and the facility could not rebut the findings. This is a serious escalation beyond a standard citation.
⚠ Each enforcement action required CMS to make a separate non-compliance determination — meaning this facility failed two levels of regulatory review before any fine was issued. Ask management specifically what violations triggered these fines and what corrective steps were taken.
📅 Per-action enforcement records (date, fine amount, and penalty type for each individual action) are sourced from a separate CMS enforcement dataset and will be added in a future data update.
Resident Wellbeing — Key Indicators
These are the measures families ask about most. They come from CMS clinical assessments of every resident — not just inspection reports. Stars (★) count toward the official CMS quality star rating.

📅 Inspection Timeline
State health inspectors visit nursing homes on a regular cycle — typically every 12 to 15 months — and document every deficiency they find. The timeline below shows the date and scale of each inspection visit over the past several years. A pattern of worsening surveys is a red flag even if the most recent visit looks clean.
Bar length proportional to citation count. Red = serious findings (severity G+). Orange = elevated. Green = low.
📄 Full Citation Record
Every time state inspectors visit a nursing home, they write up anything that doesn’t meet federal standards. Each write-up is called a citation.
Each citation shows what the problem was and how serious it was, using a color-coded badge:
A Repeat tag means the same problem appeared in a previous inspection — it was not fully corrected the first time. Citations shown cover the last two years.
How Are Residents Doing?
Inspections tell you whether a facility followed the rules. These measures tell you how residents actually fared — whether they fell, experienced pain, lost weight, or were over-medicated. CMS collects this data through regular clinical assessments that nurses complete for every resident. Unlike inspections, which happen once a year, these assessments happen continuously.
How to read these cards: Each card shows one measure. Lower percentages are better for most (e.g. fewer falls), but higher is better for vaccination rates and community return. ★ Star rating marks measures CMS uses in its official quality star rating.

💬 Questions to Ask Before Touring
These questions are generated specifically from this facility's score profile and citation history — not a generic checklist. A facility's willingness to answer them openly, and the quality of their answers, is itself an important signal. Bring this list when you tour or call.
- Federal inspectors found 3 citations rated as causing actual harm or immediate jeopardy in the public record. Walk us through each incident: what happened, who was affected, and what specific policy or staffing changes have been put in place since?
- CMS data shows this facility is significantly below the state average for total nurse hours and RN-specific hours per resident day. What is the actual RN coverage on evenings, nights, and weekends — not the regulatory minimum, but what residents consistently receive?
- What is your 90-day CNA and nurse turnover rate? How do you ensure a resident sees the same familiar caregivers across a given week?
- This facility has a significant CMS enforcement history. Can you identify each action in the past three years, what it was for, and what systemic — not just procedural — changes were made to prevent recurrence?
- How do you handle formal complaints from residents or families, and what is your typical time to resolution?
- 3 citations in the public record were rated as causing actual harm to a resident. Can you describe what occurred in each case and what specific safeguards are now in place?
- Can we speak privately with two or three current residents or their families?
👪 Family Decision Guide
This guide translates this facility's data into practical next steps for families. It is not a recommendation for or against placement — it is a structured framework for the conversations you need to have before making a decision.
✓ Positives to confirm
- No pattern of repeat violations detected
⚠ Areas to probe
- Inspection score is low — ask for the most recent state survey results
- Staffing concerns — request staffing schedules and ask about agency nurse use
- Penalty history present — ask what enforcement actions occurred and outcomes
- Serious-harm citations on record — require a written explanation of corrective action
- Always speak with at least two current residents or family members independently
📈 Score History
The score is recalculated every time CMS releases updated data (typically monthly). A consistent downward trend is more concerning than a single low score. An improving trend after a period of poor performance may indicate management changes are taking effect. Use the free facility-watch form above to get email alerts when this facility's record changes materially.
🏢 Ownership & Operators
Ownership matters because large corporate chains sometimes prioritize cost controls over care quality. CMS requires every nursing home to disclose its owners, operators, and managing employees. Frequent ownership changes can disrupt staffing and operations — which is why we flag facilities that changed ownership in the past 12 months.
