Gardenside Has Successful State Survey

JCH&L Gardenside had its state health department survey April 6-8, and was pleased to receive a report showing zero deficiencies. State surveys are unannounced inspections conducted at least every 15 months to ensure facilities comply with all care standards.

“Surveyors were very complimentary while they were on site and indicated they were impressed with the wonderful things Gardenside has going on. They said they could see it was family caring for family,” said Laura DeBoer, RN, director of nursing at Gardenside. “These compliments and a deficiency-free health survey highlights that all of our hard work from each and every staff member does not go unnoticed. The size of our facility does allow us to feel like family and we all truly feel like each resident is our family.”

Gardenside continues to be rated by Nursing Home Compare as a 5 Star facility by Medicare.gov. The overall rating is based on a nursing home’s performance on 3 sources: health inspections, staffing, and quality measures.
