Overview of Village of the Falls

Village of the Falls is a 32-bed skilled nursing community directed by administrator Marie Grosh and Director of Nursing Erin Jones. The facility focuses primarily on short-term post-acute rehabilitation and temporary respite care, with an admission base driven by 72% private-pay and 20% Medicare clients. Residents record a brief 40-day average length of stay, and the property maintains an 82% occupancy rate that matches local market baselines. Financial tracking shows some operational stress, including a 2023 operating loss of $621 thousand, though the provider keeps payroll steady at 53% of overall revenue.

State health archives reveal a highly consistent regulatory history, noting only one citation over the past six years. The home’s most recent standard evaluation turned up four moderate administrative deficiencies involving care planning, resident rights, and nutrition setup, all of which the operator has corrected. No federal financial penalties or payment denials appear on the building’s three-year history.

Daily care lines show that total nursing hours average 3 hours and 30 minutes per resident each day, while this sits slightly below the Ohio baseline, registered nurse hours run 26% above the state average, and dedicated physical therapy coverage tracks 133% ahead of the state norm. Clinical files reflect a zero percent rate for long-stay major fall injuries and low resident depression marks, though permanent resident tracking indicates below-average scores for preserving basic functional mobility.

Interested individuals researching local short-term physical therapy or brief respite stays can analyze these government tracking dossiers to assess the provider’s clinical performance. Since the public data points to above-average daily registered nurse hours, strong physical therapy resources, and a very low historical citation count alongside minor care planning corrections and steady occupancy, the paperwork aligns with a highly focused rehabilitation environment.
