Birchwood Health and Rehab

Birchwood Health and Rehab is a for-profit nursing facility with 87 licensed beds, run by Birchwood Rehab Holdings LLC and managed by Mr. Peter Lewis, and it's been inspected by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration, with a license number 12640961, and holds joint commission accreditation, and you'll find a mix of skilled nursing, long-term care, rehabilitation services, assisted living, memory care, adult day services, home care, and hospice care there, so people can get post-acute rehab, therapy like physical, occupational, and speech, wound care, pain management, and 24/7 nursing care all under one roof, and they've got private or semi-private rooms, cable TV, internet, and telephone, with home-like surroundings and modern touches, plus social activities and support services for daily needs. People paying for care will find the monthly cost changes based on the type of room and level of care needed, and the place accepts Medicaid and Medicare. Their CMS inspections show mixed results, with quality measures above average, staffing about average, but health inspections and the overall rating slightly below average, and the nurse staffing rate-at 3.55 nurse hours per resident per day-is below the state average, nurse turnover's pretty high at 51.9%, which is above what's seen elsewhere, and the place often has around 76 people living there. Birchwood Health and Rehab has had a number of state inspection deficiencies, with 21 cited in 2023 and several specific issues like food safety, resident rights, pressure ulcer care, and following doctor's orders, plus a total of $49,680 in fines, so that's probably why it's listed on the Florida Nursing Home Watch List and sometimes faces license sanctions or appeals, and you'll find it's had some trouble with staffing levels and ensuring a homelike environment, but it does keep a focus on offering a range of care and specialized programs for different needs, aiming to support both safety and well-being for the people living there.
