Wesley Village in Macomb, Illinois has a Trust Grade of B+, which means it is above average and recommended for families considering long-term care. It ranks #194 out of 665 facilities in Illinois, placing it in the top half, and #3 out of 4 in McDonough County, indicating only one local facility is rated higher. Unfortunately, the facility is experiencing a worsening trend, with issues increasing from 1 in 2024 to 5 in 2025.

Is Wesley Village Safe?
Based on CMS inspection data, WESLEY VILLAGE has a clean safety record: no substantiated abuse findings (meaning no confirmed cases of resident harm), no Immediate Jeopardy citations (the most serious violation level indicating risk of serious injury or death), and is not on the Special Focus Facility watch list (a federal program monitoring the lowest-performing 1% of nursing homes). The facility has a 4-star overall rating and ranks #1 of 100 nursing homes in Illinois. While no facility is perfect, families should still ask about staff-to-resident ratios and recent inspection results during their visit.
Do Nurses at Wesley Village Stick Around?
WESLEY VILLAGE has not reported staff turnover data to CMS. Staff turnover matters because consistent caregivers learn residents' individual needs, medications, and preferences. When staff frequently change, this institutional knowledge is lost. Families should ask the facility directly about their staff retention rates and average employee tenure.
Was Wesley Village Ever Fined?
WESLEY VILLAGE has no federal fines on record. CMS issues fines when nursing homes fail to meet care standards or don't correct problems found during inspections. The absence of fines suggests the facility has either maintained compliance or corrected any issues before penalties were assessed. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review recent inspection reports for the full picture.
Is Wesley Village on Any Federal Watch List?
WESLEY VILLAGE is not on any federal watch list. The most significant is the Special Focus Facility (SFF) program, which identifies the bottom 1% of nursing homes nationally based on persistent, serious quality problems. Not being on this list means the facility has avoided the pattern of deficiencies that triggers enhanced federal oversight. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review the facility's inspection history directly.
