Lowest Rated St. Louis Nursing Homes
As an experienced attorney that regularly pursues Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect cases in the St. Louis area, our team is dedicated to advocating for the those who have been abused or neglected at a nursing home. According to the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services there are approximately 1,161 long term care facilities across the state, which includes. 511 skilled nursing facilities (known as nursing homes) and the rest are facilities that offer differing levels of care including intermediate care facilities, residential care facilities, and assisted living facilities. Medicare regularly conducts surveys for all nursing homes that receive payment from Medicare and Medicaid. These are the facilities the Medicare includes in its Star Rating system that will be the focus of this page.
Across the state of Missouri Medicare ranks 270 Nursing Homes as “Below Average” or “Much Below Average”. That is a shocking number. Let that sink in. Fifty-two percent (52%) of Missouri nursing homes are considered Below Average or Much Below Average by Medicare.
Equally concerning is that sixty-three (63) Missouri nursing homes have been cited for abuse of its residents. Abuse is defined by the federal government as “the willful infliction of injury, unreasonable confinement, intimidation or punishment with resulting physical harm, pain or mental anguish. Abuse also includes the deprivation by an individual, including a caretaker, of goods or services that are necessary to attain or maintain physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being.” According to Medicare, 63 of Missouri’s nursing homes (12%) have been cited by investigators as having abused at least one resident. These statistics may shock you, but unfortunately, this is a very real reality many nursing home residents face.
Further, an AARP article noted that Missouri’s Nursing Home Quality is ranked 48th, and Nursing Home Staffing Levels were ranked 46th. It’s clear that Missouri is one of the worst states for seniors to receive nursing home care. This data reinforces the importance of advocating for your loved ones who have suffered in a Missouri nursing home and emphasizes the need to continue to hold nursing homes accountable for their actions.
