About Nursing Home Care in Lumberton

The standout is Wesley Pines Retirement Community, which boasts a 5-star CMS rating and an impressive score of 90. However, with only two facilities meeting acceptable standards, the options are limited and concerning for families seeking quality care.

  • Health Inspection Results — Recent deficiencies, their severity, and patterns over time
  • Staffing Levels — RN hours, total nursing hours, and weekend staffing

  • Penalties — Fines, payment denials, and enforcement actions

Ownership: Mix of For-Profit and Non-Profit

Lumberton has 1 non-profit nursing homes and 4 for-profit facilities. 5 of 5 facilities are 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.
