Overview

The Glebe in Daleville, Virginia has an excellent Trust Grade of A, indicating it is highly recommended and performs well in care standards. It ranks #41 out of 285 nursing facilities in Virginia, placing it in the top half, and is the best option among the three facilities in Botetourt County. The facility shows an improving trend, with issues decreasing from seven in 2019 to none in 2024. Staffing is also a strength, with a solid 4 out of 5 stars and a turnover rate of 40%, which is below the state average. Notably, there have been no fines on record, and the facility provides more RN coverage than 78% of Virginia facilities, ensuring better oversight of resident care. However, there are some concerns. In past inspections, staff failed to monitor residents properly while on medication and did not send critical care plan goals to the emergency room for a resident who had to be transferred. Additionally, there was an incident where the correct dosage of eye drops was not administered to a resident. While these issues are concerning, the overall performance of The Glebe remains strong, with a commitment to improving care standards.

About This Facility

What is The Glebe's CMS Rating?

CMS assigns THE GLEBE an overall rating of 5 out of 5 stars, which is considered much above average nationally. Within Virginia, 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 The Glebe Staffed?

CMS rates THE GLEBE's staffing level at 4 out of 5 stars, which is above average compared to other nursing homes. Staff turnover is 40%, compared to the Virginia average of 46%. This relatively stable workforce can support continuity of care.

What Have Inspectors Found at The Glebe?

State health inspectors documented 7 deficiencies at THE GLEBE during 2019. These included: 7 with potential for harm.

Who Owns and Operates The Glebe?

THE GLEBE is owned by a non-profit organization. Non-profit facilities reinvest revenue into operations rather than distributing to shareholders. The facility operates independently rather than as part of a larger chain. With 32 certified beds and approximately 29 residents (about 91% occupancy), it is a smaller facility located in DALEVILLE, Virginia.

How Does The Glebe Compare to Other Virginia Nursing Homes?

Compared to the 100 nursing homes in Virginia, THE GLEBE's overall rating (5 stars) is above the state average of 3.0, staff turnover (40%) is near the state average of 46%, and health inspection rating (5 stars) is much above the national benchmark.

What Should Families Ask When Visiting The Glebe?

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 The Glebe Safe?

Based on CMS inspection data, THE GLEBE 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 5-star overall rating and ranks #1 of 100 nursing homes in Virginia. While no facility is perfect, families should still ask about staff-to-resident ratios and recent inspection results during their visit.

Do Nurses at The Glebe Stick Around?

THE GLEBE has a staff turnover rate of 40%, which is about average for Virginia nursing homes (state average: 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 The Glebe Ever Fined?

THE GLEBE 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 The Glebe on Any Federal Watch List?

THE GLEBE 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.
