What the numbers mean

ALTERCARE OF CUYAHOGA FALLS CENTER FOR REHABILITATION & NURSING CARE I scored 64 out of 100 — 5 points below the state average of 69.

📋 Inspections: 26 citations over the last 36 months — 7 more than the state average (19). None were rated as causing actual harm to residents.

👥 Staffing: Staffing is within an acceptable range but not among the highest-performing facilities. Ask about nurse coverage on evenings, nights, and weekends when you visit.

⚖️ Penalties & enforcement: No significant federal fines or enforcement actions on record — a positive indicator of consistent regulatory compliance.

⚠️ Complaints: Above-average complaint activity. Complaint surveys are unannounced and targeted — they often surface problems that routine annual inspections miss. Ask management about the nature of complaints filed and how each was resolved.

💚 Resident quality outcomes: This facility's star-rated quality measures are in the strong range. Key indicators like fall rates, antipsychotic use, and vaccination coverage compare favorably to national benchmarks — a positive signal for day-to-day resident care.

⚖ 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.

No federal penalties on record. CMS has not issued civil monetary penalties or payment denials against this facility in the current reporting period.
📋 Enforcement Context Analysis
📊
Enforcement score: 100/100 — above the state average of 79/100 — relatively better than peer facilities. This is a positive indicator — limited enforcement history compared to peer facilities.
✅ No enforcement actions on record. This facility's enforcement score of 100/100 reflects a clean enforcement history in the current CMS reporting cycle.

📅 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.
