Lake Worth Nursing Home sits in the North Lake Worth neighborhood of Lake Worth, Texas, at 4220 Wells Drive, and has been serving seniors since 1985, with a building that's fully sprinklered for fire safety, housing 71 certified beds and currently serving about 73 residents right now, although some reports say it can go up to 109 beds and occupancy depends on the time of year. The place is close to churches, stores, and medical clinics, so people don't have far to go for those things, and the staff gives nursing and rehabilitation care along with memory care support in a secure unit for folks who need extra help with memory issues. Residents get skilled nursing from teams that include registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants, and people get about 2 hours with a CNA, about 0.63 hours with an LPN, and about 0.34 hours with an RN each day, which all adds up to about 0.97 total staff hours for every resident each day, and the place is certified for Medicare and Medicaid.
The nursing home offers therapy services like physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy, plus specialty care like the LSVT BIG LOUD Program and Music Memory certification for people who might need those kinds of support. A dedicated team handles wound care, and there's also counseling for residents and their families, which some families have found helpful. Programs include regular vaccinations for flu and pneumonia, and activities are there to keep everyone as busy as they'd like, including transportation for doctor visits and outings, along with some fine dining options in the dining area.
Health inspections have noted six deficiencies in the first survey cycle, five in the second, and four in the third, with some issues around pharmacy services and medication management, but there hasn't been a penalty or fine placed on the home. The home has had one reported incident and maintains a health inspection rating of 3, a staffing rating of 1, and an overall rating of 2. Lake Worth Nursing Home also has a resident council and a family council to help people share their concerns or suggestions, and it's not part of a larger chain or located inside a hospital. Folks can also find a map to see where the home sits and look at floor plans if they want to know what the rooms are like. The home is a for-profit facility and keeps the focus on basic nursing care, rehabilitation, memory support, and different activity programs, and staff try to do what they can for both short-term rehab and long-term living.
