Boca Raton Rehabilitation Center

Boca Raton Rehabilitation Center holds an overall 3-star rating from CMS, which means it performs at roughly an average level compared to nursing homes across the country. That overall score is built from three separate ratings, each measuring something different about how the facility operates. The health inspection rating, also 3 stars, reflects the findings from state inspectors who visit the facility and note any problems or rule violations. A 3 here means the number and seriousness of those citations are in line with what inspectors typically find at most facilities. The staffing rating, likewise 3 stars, looks at how many hours of nursing care residents receive relative to how many people live there. Again, average is the short answer, meaning families should not expect notably high nurse-to-resident ratios, but the facility is not understaffed by typical standards either.

Where Boca Raton Rehabilitation Center stands out a bit is in its quality measures rating of 4 stars, which is above average. This score is based on 15 clinical and physical health outcomes for residents, things like whether residents are experiencing pain, losing mobility, or developing pressure wounds. A 4-star result here is a meaningful positive sign, suggesting that day-to-day care is producing better-than-average health outcomes for the people living there. For families weighing their options, the overall picture is a facility that is middle-of-the-road in inspections and staffing, but performs noticeably better when it comes to actual resident health results, which many families find to be the most meaningful measure of all.

Staffing at Boca Raton Rehabilitation Center is a bit of a mixed picture compared to other Florida nursing homes. On the registered nurse side, this facility actually comes in above average, providing about 0.74 RN hours per resident each day compared to the state average of 0.52. In practical terms, that means residents here tend to have more access to a higher-level nurse for things like medication management, wound care, and clinical decisions. However, when you look at total nursing hours across all staff, including CNAs and LPNs, the facility offers 3.33 hours per resident per day, which falls below the Florida average of 3.87 hours. That gap can matter in day-to-day moments like getting help to the bathroom, assistance with meals, or just having someone respond promptly when a resident needs attention. Neither number tells the whole story on its own, but taken together, they suggest this facility may have stronger clinical oversight while potentially running leaner on hands-on daily care staff. It is worth asking the facility directly how they handle peak hours and weekend coverage to get a clearer sense of what residents actually experience.

Boca Raton Rehabilitation Center holds a middle-of-the-road 3 out of 5 stars for health inspections, which means inspectors have found some concerns worth noting but nothing that has crossed the line into formal government action. Importantly, the facility has no penalties on record and has never been fined, which is a genuinely positive sign. It suggests that while the inspection process has flagged areas for improvement over time, regulators have not found violations serious enough to warrant financial punishment. For families, that combination is worth knowing - there is room to ask questions about what inspectors have found, but there is no history of the kind of repeated or serious failures that tend to result in fines.
