CMS (the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) is the federal agency that rates nursing home quality. Its Overall Rating runs from 1 to 5 stars, combining health inspections, staffing, and quality measures, with inspections weighted most heavily.
Opening in July 2024, Morgantown Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center serves the Morgantown community from a 100-bed facility situated on Van Voorhis Road, 2.4 miles from downtown and within walking distance of Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital (0.6 miles). The nursing home accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay residents for skilled care and rehabilitation. MORGANTOWN Heights of Journey, LLC operates the facility under the administration of Sheila Jones-Marino.
The facility holds a 1-star CMS overall rating; 55.6% below West Virginia’s state average. Both health inspection (1 star, 59% below average) and staffing (1 star, 57.8% below average) received the lowest ratings.
During its first year of operation, the facility incurred 29 deficiencies in its March 2024 annual survey, with immediate jeopardy cited for neglect and medication mismanagement. Investigators substantiated allegations involving delayed abuse reporting, improper resident transfers that caused physical injury, and missed antibiotic doses.
The facility received a $148K federal penalty, placing it 47th of 48 West Virginia facilities in cumulative penalties.
Long-stay quality measures achieved a 4-star rating, 24% above state average. Clinical outcomes for functional decline, activities of daily living, and fall-related injuries all exceeded state benchmarks. Short-stay residents demonstrated strong discharge outcomes: 67.4% achieved expected self-care ability at discharge (26% better than state average).
Overall nursing care averages 3 hours 4 minutes per resident daily. The staff-to-resident ratio of 1.11:1 ranks 25% below state average, indicating understaffing. Weekend RN coverage, however, runs 83% above state average at 42 minutes per resident daily. The facility employs 80 staff members with no contractors: 10 RNs, 19 LPNs, and 35 CNAs.
Current occupancy is 68% (68 of 100 beds), below the state average of 89.9% and ranking 61st of 73 state facilities. Resident census comprises 77.8% Medicaid, 18.1% Medicare, and 4.2% private pay. The average stay is 88 days.
Services include rehabilitation, memory care, home care, barber, transportation, housekeeping, and laundry.
The facility’s first-year inspection record and recent substantiated compliance failures suggest a facility working to establish operations, with significant systems work required to align compliance practices with clinical outcomes.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
This home is ranked 31st out of 46 homes in West Virginia for nurse hours. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 48m per day | ▲ 14% State avg: 42m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 1h 4m per day | ▲ 16% State avg: 55m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 1h 59m per day | ▼ 4% State avg: 2h 4m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 2h 31m per day | ▼ 21% State avg: 3h 11m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 3m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 3m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 42m per day | ▲ 83% State avg: 23m per day · National avg: 29m per day |
