Overview

Greenbough Health and Rehabilitation Center has received a Trust Grade of F, indicating significant concerns about the quality of care provided. It ranks #163 out of 200 facilities in Mississippi, placing it in the bottom half of nursing homes in the state, and is the second of two options in Coahoma County. Although there is a trend of improvement, with issues decreasing from 9 in 2024 to 2 in 2025, the facility has serious staffing challenges, reflected in a poor 1-star rating and a turnover rate of 66%, which is concerning compared to the state average of 47%. Additionally, the center has incurred fines totaling $24,857, which is higher than 86% of facilities, suggesting compliance problems, and there is less RN coverage than 82% of state facilities, which means less oversight for resident care. Specific incidents include a resident who had not received necessary personal hygiene care for several shifts, and another resident with a pressure ulcer that was not properly monitored or treated, highlighting weaknesses in care management.
