Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility.

Inspection Report Summary for North Pointe Health Rehabilitation Services

The most recent inspections on January 28-29, 2026, included two complaint investigations related to neglect, physical environment, nursing services, infection control, and resident falls, and no deficiencies were cited. Earlier inspections showed a mixed record, with the June 19, 2025, annual survey citing deficiencies in residents' rights, activity programming, food safety, and infection control, including failure to document physical restraints and follow enhanced barrier precautions. Prior complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, and no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. Earlier issues also included a failure to secure hazardous cleaning agents in January 2024 and incomplete COVID-19 reporting in October 2023, both addressed through corrective actions. The facility appears to have improved since mid-2025, with recent complaint investigations finding no deficiencies.
