Muskegon Nursing Homes

Muskegon has seven skilled nursing homes, but only three have federal Medicare ratings. Their average rating is 2.3 stars out of five, with the highest rated at three stars. Two facilities scored two stars or lower. This means most homes here receive below-average federal marks, which families should note when comparing options.

Staffing levels are notably low: average nursing care is just 3.7 hours per resident daily, with only 0.7 hours from a registered nurse. Staff turnover averages 52% annually, meaning teams change frequently. High turnover and minimal RN time can affect consistent care quality, a key factor in facility evaluations.

Muskegon County has one hospital with an emergency department (Trinity Health Muskegon). Statewide, shared room nursing home costs average $80,300 yearly. Given Muskegon's low-rated homes, families might find better options in nearby cities. Always check the latest Medicare ratings online before deciding.
