Ybor City Center For Rehabilitation And Healing

Ybor City Center For Rehabilitation And Healing holds an overall 3-star rating, which puts it at about average compared to nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is a composite built from three separate ratings, and in this case, the pieces tell a pretty mixed story. On the clinical outcomes side, the facility stands out with a perfect 5-star Quality Measures rating, meaning residents tend to fare well across 15 tracked health indicators like wound care, mobility, and medication management. That's genuinely encouraging and suggests the care residents receive day-to-day is producing solid results.

The weaker spots are in Health Inspections and Staffing, both rated 2 stars, or below average. The inspection rating reflects that state surveyors have cited the facility for a higher-than-typical number of violations, or more serious ones, which is worth asking the facility about directly. The staffing rating means nurses are spending less time per resident than you'd see at most comparable facilities, which can affect how quickly staff respond to needs and how much individual attention residents get. So while the quality outcomes are a real strength here, families should go in with open eyes about staffing levels and the facility's inspection history.

Staffing at Ybor City Center For Rehabilitation And Healing is close to, but slightly below, what you'd typically see at other Florida nursing homes. Residents here receive about 3.75 total nurse hours per day, compared to the Florida average of 3.87, which is a modest difference. The bigger gap shows up in registered nurse (RN) coverage, where residents get roughly 0.43 RN hours per day versus the state average of 0.52. In practical terms, RNs handle the more complex medical decisions and assessments, so slightly less RN time could mean those higher-level checks happen a bit less frequently throughout the day. The overall nursing coverage is close enough to the state average that day-to-day care routines are unlikely to look dramatically different, but if your loved one has more involved medical needs, it's a reasonable question to bring up directly with the facility when you visit.

Ybor City Center For Rehabilitation And Healing carries a 2-out-of-5-star health inspection rating, which is below average and worth paying attention to as you weigh your options. That said, the facility has no government penalties on record and has not been fined, meaning inspectors have not found violations serious enough to result in formal financial consequences. The lower inspection rating likely reflects findings from routine surveys that didn't rise to the level of penalties but still signal areas where the facility may have room to improve. Families should request recent inspection reports directly and ask staff how they've addressed any cited deficiencies.
