Broward Oaks Nursing And Rehabilitation

Broward Oaks Nursing And Rehabilitation holds a 2-star overall rating from CMS, which places it below average compared to other nursing facilities nationwide. That overall number is a composite that leans heavily on the health inspection score, which is also 2 stars. That inspection rating reflects the number and severity of violations found during state surveys, and a below-average score here can signal concerns about how consistently the facility meets care and safety standards day to day. Because health inspections carry significant weight in the overall calculation, a low score there can pull the composite down even when other areas look stronger.

The good news is that two important pieces of the picture do look stronger. Staffing earns 4 stars, meaning residents tend to get more nurse time and attention relative to the number of people living there, which often translates to more responsive care. Quality Measures also comes in at 4 stars, reflecting above-average outcomes across 15 clinical indicators like wound care, mobility, and pain management. For families, that combination suggests the hands-on care and health outcomes are genuinely better than what you would find at many facilities, but the inspection history is worth digging into. Asking the facility directly about any cited deficiencies and what steps they have taken to correct them is a smart move before making a final decision.

Staffing at Broward Oaks Nursing And Rehabilitation comes in slightly above the norm when you look at the full picture. The facility provides about 3.89 total nurse hours per resident each day, which is nearly identical to the Florida average of 3.87 hours, meaning residents get a similar overall level of hands-on care to what you'd find at most Florida nursing homes. Where Broward Oaks stands out is in registered nurse coverage specifically, at 0.87 RN hours per resident per day compared to the state average of 0.52. In practical terms, that means residents here are more likely to have a higher-credentialed nurse involved in their daily care, not just aides or licensed practical nurses handling the bulk of interactions. That can matter when it comes to catching early warning signs, managing complex medications, or coordinating with doctors. It's not a dramatic difference from the broader state picture, but the stronger RN presence is worth noting if your loved one has more involved medical needs.

Broward Oaks Nursing And Rehabilitation carries a 2-out-of-5-star health inspection rating, which is below average and worth taking seriously as you weigh your options. The facility has one government penalty on record, resulting in a fine of $33,891, with the most recent penalty issued as recently as May 2025. A single penalty does not automatically mean the facility is unsafe, but the combination of a low inspection rating and a significant, recent fine suggests this is a place where families should ask detailed questions, request to see recent inspection reports, and ideally visit in person before making a decision.
