About Nursing Home Care in High Point
When it comes to nursing homes in High Point, NC, families need to tread carefully. The standout is Piedmont Crossing, which, while it doesn't receive glowing reviews, has a clean record with zero fines in three years. However, overall, the market here is concerning, with limited good options and some serious issues lurking.
If you're considering facilities, look at Brookdale High Point and Piedmont Crossing. Brookdale High Point has a relatively decent staffing ratio, which is crucial for quality care. On the other hand, Piedmont Crossing offers a clean slate with no fines, making it a safer choice despite its average ratings. However, if you're serious about finding better care, consider looking at options in nearby cities like Greensboro or Winston-Salem, which may have stronger facilities.
When it comes to facilities to avoid, skip Meridian Center altogether. This facility has a troubling history, racking up $107K in fines and receiving a Grade F. It's a red flag you can't ignore. Always remember to visit any facility multiple times and at different hours to get a true feel for the environment and care provided.

Understanding Our Trust Score System
The Trust Score is a 0-100 rating calculated from CMS's official nursing home database. The score combines five data categories:
- Health Inspection Results — Recent deficiencies, their severity, and patterns over time
- Staffing Levels — RN hours, total nursing hours, and weekend staffing
- Quality Measures — Clinical outcomes like falls, pressure ulcers, and rehospitalizations
- Penalties — Fines, payment denials, and enforcement actions
- Complaints — Substantiated complaints and their severity
In High Point, 1 facility scores a B grade or better, indicating they meet quality benchmarks across these categories. We recommend families prioritize these facilities and carefully research any facility rated C or below before visiting.
Staffing: A Significant Concern in High Point
Staffing levels are among the most important predictors of nursing home quality. Research consistently shows that facilities with more nursing staff—especially registered nurses—have better outcomes for residents.
High Point facilities average 0.50 RN hours per resident day, which falls below the CMS-recommended threshold of 0.75 hours. The typical High Point resident receives approximately 30 minutes of RN attention daily—compared to the 45 minutes experts recommend.
2 High Point facilities exceed CMS staffing recommendations. Families prioritizing staffing should look for facilities with the "Top Staffing" badge and ask specifically about RN hours during facility visits.
Ownership: Mix of For-Profit and Non-Profit
High Point has 2 non-profit nursing homes and 1 for-profit facility. 1 of 3 facility is chain-owned, with the remainder independently operated.
Research suggests non-profit facilities often have higher staffing levels and fewer deficiencies on average, though ownership type alone does not guarantee quality. Families should evaluate each facility individually using inspection data, staffing levels, and recent deficiency reports.
