COPPER KNOLL HEALTH & REHAB LLC
Over 2 years since last inspection. Current conditions may differ from available data.
Copper Knoll Health & Rehab LLC has received a Trust Grade of B+, which means it is above average and recommended for families considering care options. In Ohio, it ranks #245 out of 913 facilities, placing it in the top half overall, and it is the top-rated facility out of four in Fayette County. The facility is improving, with reported issues decreasing from six in 2021 to three in 2023. Staffing is a relative strength with a turnover rate of 23%, significantly lower than the state average, and it has better RN coverage than 76% of Ohio facilities, ensuring that residents receive attentive care. However, the facility has faced some concerns, particularly related to food safety. Recent inspections revealed that food in the kitchen and resident refrigerators was not properly labeled or dated, posing a risk to the health of residents. Despite having no fines on record, which is a positive indicator, these sanitation issues could affect the well-being of the residents. Overall, while Copper Knoll has strengths in staffing and performance, families should be aware of the ongoing concerns regarding food safety practices.
