Lowest Rated Palm Beach County Nursing Homes
Unfortunately, not all Palm Beach County nursing homes are created, or operated, equally. While some Palm Beach facilities have earned the coveted 5 star rating from Medicare, sadly, some skilled nursing facilities are poorly rated due to documented resident neglect and poor survey inspections.
From Boca Raton to Jupiter, all the way west to Belle Glade, Palm Beach’s worst nursing homes are spread evenly throughout the county.
Why do nursing home rankings matter? Poorly rated nursing homes consistently cause resident injuries, like bedsores, patient falls and unexplained broken bones. These inexcusable injuries occur more frequently at lower rated facilities.
Our Boca Raton nursing home abuse attorneys detail the worst rated nursing homes in Palm Beach County, as per the publicly available CMS ratings on 8-11-2020.

Conclusion on Palm Beach’s Worst Rated Nursing Homes
Ratings help residents and their families make educated decisions on where to place their aging parent. However, an arbitrary star rating does not mean a facility is perfect, or absolutely terrible. You should always visit long term care facilities and see if you get a good vibe from the caretakers and management. Also, it is important to remember that Palm Beach facility star ratings often change with survey results.
