Candlewood Healthcare and Rehabilitation

Candlewood Healthcare And Rehabilitation sits at 1835 Belmore Ave in East Cleveland, Ohio, running 24 hours every day, and it's a skilled nursing center that offers both long-term and short-term care for up to 130 certified beds, with about 94 residents on average each day and it's been managed by Aj R&R Holding Company LLC since April 2018, though Shamuel Fishman, Jason Dipasqua, Extended Ohio LLC, Yisrael Friedman, and Mark Neuman hold indirect stakes in it, and it's a for-profit corporation with Medicare and Medicaid certification. The staff at Candlewood are known for their compassion, and they do their best to provide hands-on care, helping people with memory care services, outpatient rehabilitation, post-operative recovery, and even support for substance use disorders, and there's a Connections community to help with behavioral health needs, but the facility has received a total of 41 deficiencies on inspection reports, which include citations for not always making sure residents get the right behavioral health care and services-a situation where there was no actual harm but the chance for more than minimal harm existed, even though only a few people were affected, and it's also been cited for not fully protecting residents from abuse or neglect, with those incidents listed as causing actual harm, though still not considered immediate jeopardy, again affecting only a few people. Infection control has been a concern, with two deficiencies for issues there, and inspections haven't happened in over two years, even though regulations say they should be done every 9 to 15 months. The nurse turnover rate is currently at 28.8%, and residents receive about 3.20 nurse hours per day, which some might say is a bit on the low to average side. Candlewood belongs to the larger CommuniCare and Certus Healthcare Community family, and they focus on providing physical, occupational, and speech therapy, using what they call dedicated therapy programs and personalized rehabilitation plans that aim to get residents ready for everyday activities again, offering modern amenities to create a helpful environment as people work toward recovery, but despite all these services, there isn't much more specific information available about this facility.
