High Point has eight skilled nursing homes, but only three have Medicare ratings. The average rating is 3.0 stars out of five, with one home rated 5 stars (the highest) and one rated 2 stars or lower. This indicates significant variation in care quality across the city. Families should prioritize the 5-star facility when considering local options.
Staffing averages show 3.9 nursing hours per resident daily, but only 0.5 hours come from registered nurses. Annual nursing staff turnover is high at 38%, meaning caregivers change frequently. These numbers suggest potential challenges in consistent, experienced care. Inspection records show this pattern aligns with the mixed rating performance.
Guilford County has two hospitals with emergency departments, including High Point Regional Health System. Nationwide, shared room nursing home costs average $69,350 yearly. Given High Point's weak average rating, families should check the 5-star home here and consider neighboring towns for better-rated options before deciding.
