Forest Hills Healthcare Center

Forest Hills Healthcare Center sits on Moran Road in Cincinnati in a quiet spot with beautiful gardens and a forest on the edge, and the place stretches out with a skilled nursing facility and assisted living housing under one roof, so there are choices for older folks who need different levels of help, whether it's long-term care, post-acute care, or just some support as they try to keep some independence, and you see that many rooms are private with some kitchenettes, and staff are always around to help with things like bathing, dressing, and managing medicine, since health services are a main focus here. The center handles wound care, hospice care, palliative care, and offers rehabilitation including physical, occupational, and speech therapy for those recovering between hospital and home, and you find all kinds of therapy services and specialty care options, too. It's set up for residents who need high-level nursing care all the time, including those who're very frail, as well as for folks who just need an extra hand, and staff will try to involve family and residents in care planning to make the care personal and focused on dignity. Forest Hills Healthcare Center's got 138 licensed and certified beds, is run as a for-profit business by Health Care Facility Management, LLC, and is affiliated with Communicare Health, while Kelly Ransom looks after admissions and marketing. The staff speaks some languages besides English, and services are mostly provided in English, and the building is wheelchair accessible and helps with beneficiary travel. The nurse staffing comes out to about 3.58 hours per resident per day, but the nurse turnover rate's high at 58.7%, which is something folks might want to consider, and there've been 45 documented inspection deficiencies, including infection issues and not enough supervision, with some delays in standard inspections-over two years since the last one. Some residents didn't get full access to their records, according to reports, and the community's had some trouble making sure accident hazards are fixed. Still, the center talks a lot about keeping residents' emotional and physical well-being in mind, having social and educational activities, maintaining residents' dignity, and trying to answer individual needs. The place offers many services, like advanced lab and blood tests, mental health care, foot care, eye care, and advanced heart care, and staff help handle all kinds of personal needs to make life as comfortable as possible, with comforts to help seniors feel at home, spending time in a spot not far from shopping, restaurants, parks, and entertainment. Right now, Forest Hills Healthcare Center isn't taking new patients.
