SHELBY POINTE, INC
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Shelby Pointe, Inc. has received a Trust Grade of C, which means it is average and in the middle of the pack compared to other nursing homes. It ranks #544 out of 913 facilities in Ohio, placing it in the bottom half, and #4 out of 10 in Richland County, indicating only three local options are better. The facility's trend is worsening, with reported issues increasing from 5 in 2023 to 8 in 2025. Staffing is a concern, rated at 1 out of 5 stars, with a 39% turnover rate that is better than the state average but still indicates instability. Notably, the facility has not incurred any fines, which is a positive sign, and it has average RN coverage, meaning they have sufficient registered nurses to help monitor resident care. However, there have been serious incidents, such as a resident with dementia wandering into another resident's room and suffering a shoulder fracture, as well as concerns over cleanliness and sanitation, including issues with a dishwasher that failed to properly sanitize dishes, risking residents' health. While the facility excels in quality measures, these weaknesses warrant careful consideration for families exploring care options.
