Greenbriar Healthcare Rehabilitation and Nursing Center received numerous deficiencies during 2023 resulting from a standard inspection and complaint investigation. The address of this nursing home is 210 21st Avenue West, Bradenton, Florida 34203. It is licensed to provide 79 beds and is a private, for-profit facility.
A review of public records shows that a change of ownership of this Bradenton nursing home occurred on October 28, 2022. The current owner and licensee is a foreign limited liability company with a mailing address in Montebello, New York. A scheduled standard inspection, as well as several complaints, brought Florida officials into the nursing home during 2023. The result was that multiple deficiencies were identified. As of February, 2024, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has rated this facility as a “two-star” or “below average” nursing home based on its health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures.
Nursing Home Cited Following Complaints and Inspections
One of the most important aspects of nursing home care is that the staff properly follow physician orders. At the conclusion of a September, 2023 investigation at the nursing home, Florida officials stated that this requirement under the law “was not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, record review, and interviews, the facility failed to ensure physician orders were followed for one (Resident #7) of nine residents sampled.” Of course, the failure to follow physician orders for any resident, even on just one occasion, can have catastrophic consequences.
Additionally, this Bradenton nursing home was cited for failing to follow the law during 2023 relating to, among other things, failing to develop and implement comprehensive care plans, failing to ensure the facility is free of medication error rates of five percent or less, failing to ensure residents are free from unnecessary psychotropic medications, failing to maintain an effective pest control program and failing to ensure each resident’s right to adequate and appropriate healthcare.
