The Palmelle ReadUpdated 29 May 2026

The record on St Joseph's Hillside Villa cuts both ways. On one side, inspectors rated the last health survey 5 out of 5 and levied no fines. On the other, falls with major injury far outpace the national rate, and reported staffing does not match the payroll-based hours. The sections below show exactly where each number comes from — read them before you tour.

What the pattern says

Palmelle pattern checks · v1

Mixed — a strong record with one number that needs an answer.

  • The falls number is the outlier: 3× the national rate. 5.2% of long-stay residents had a fall with major injury vs 1.6% nationally. Combined with the staffing picture, ask hard questions: one bad cluster, a reporting artifact, or a real problem.
  • Clean accountability record. Non-profit operated — and there are no fines, flags, or abuse findings on the federal record.

These checks are computed the same way for every facility. Good patterns and bad ones both print.
