Overview

Wyoming Health and Rehabilitation Center has received a Trust Grade of B+, indicating it is above average and recommended for families looking for care. The facility ranks #253 out of 653 nursing homes in Pennsylvania, placing it in the top half of all facilities in the state, though it is #10 out of 15 in Berks County, meaning there are better local options available. Unfortunately, the facility is experiencing a worsening trend, with the number of issues increasing from 2 in 2024 to 5 in 2025. While staffing is a strength with a 3/5 star rating, turnover is at 52%, which is average for the state. However, there are concerns about RN coverage, which is lower than 87% of Pennsylvania facilities, potentially impacting resident care. Recent inspector findings highlighted several issues, including the failure to verify the professional licenses of two newly hired staff members, a lack of documentation for a resident's personal belongings upon admission, and the failure to implement physician's orders for blood tests for three residents. These incidents suggest gaps in care and oversight that families should consider while weighing the facility's strengths and weaknesses. Overall, while Wyoming Health and Rehabilitation Center has some positive attributes, there are notable concerns that families should carefully evaluate.

About This Facility

Within Pennsylvania, this rating places the facility higher than 99% of the state's 100 nursing homes. This rating reflects solid performance across the metrics CMS uses to evaluate nursing home quality.

How is Wyomissing Center Staffed?

CMS rates WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER's staffing level at 3 out of 5 stars, which is average compared to other nursing homes. Staff turnover is 52%, compared to the Pennsylvania average of 46%. RN turnover specifically is 62%, which is notably high. RNs provide skilled clinical oversight, so turnover in this role can affect medical care quality.

What Have Inspectors Found at Wyomissing Center?

State health inspectors documented 11 deficiencies at WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER during 2023 to 2025. These included: 9 with potential for harm and 2 minor or isolated issues.

Who Owns and Operates Wyomissing Center?

WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER is owned by a for-profit company. For-profit facilities operate as businesses with obligations to shareholders or private owners. The facility operates independently rather than as part of a larger chain. With 103 certified beds and approximately 95 residents (about 92% occupancy), it is a mid-sized facility located in READING, Pennsylvania.

How Does Wyomissing Center Compare to Other Pennsylvania Nursing Homes?

Compared to the 100 nursing homes in Pennsylvania, WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER's overall rating (4 stars) is above the state average of 3.0, staff turnover (52%) is near the state average of 46%, and health inspection rating (4 stars) is above the national benchmark.

What Should Families Ask When Visiting Wyomissing Center?

Based on this facility's data, families visiting should ask: "Can I visit during a mealtime to observe dining assistance and food quality?" "How do you handle medical emergencies, and what is your hospital transfer rate?" "Can I speak with family members of current residents about their experience?"

Is Wyomissing Center Safe?

Based on CMS inspection data, WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER has a clean safety record: no substantiated abuse findings (meaning no confirmed cases of resident harm), no Immediate Jeopardy citations (the most serious violation level indicating risk of serious injury or death), and is not on the Special Focus Facility watch list (a federal program monitoring the lowest-performing 1% of nursing homes). The facility has a 4-star overall rating and ranks #1 of 100 nursing homes in Pennsylvania. While no facility is perfect, families should still ask about staff-to-resident ratios and recent inspection results during their visit.

Do Nurses at Wyomissing Center Stick Around?

WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER has a staff turnover rate of 52%, which is 6 percentage points above the Pennsylvania average of 46%. Moderate turnover is common in nursing homes, but families should still ask about staff tenure and how the facility maintains care continuity when employees leave.

Was Wyomissing Center Ever Fined?

WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER has no federal fines on record. CMS issues fines when nursing homes fail to meet care standards or don't correct problems found during inspections. The absence of fines suggests the facility has either maintained compliance or corrected any issues before penalties were assessed. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review recent inspection reports for the full picture.

Is Wyomissing Center on Any Federal Watch List?

WYOMISSING HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER is not on any federal watch list. The most significant is the Special Focus Facility (SFF) program, which identifies the bottom 1% of nursing homes nationally based on persistent, serious quality problems. Not being on this list means the facility has avoided the pattern of deficiencies that triggers enhanced federal oversight. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review the facility's inspection history directly.
