Hoyt Nursing & Rehab Centre

1202 Weiss St, Saginaw, MI 48602

Decent. Hoyt Nursing & Rehab Centre brings high quality measure scores (4.0/5) — Palmelle trust score 50/100. There are 1 federal fine(s) on record — no date context, so worth asking about directly. Worth asking: Long-stay antianxiety / sleep medication rate is 30%. This category often shifts up when antipsychotic prescribing is restricted — different drug class, same effect on the resident. Worth asking the facility's prescribing rate for both classes side by side.

Saginaw Senior Care and Rehabilitation Center, LLC

4322 Mackinaw Road, Saginaw, MI 48603

Decent. Saginaw Senior Care and Rehabilitation Center, LLC brings a 4.0-star CMS rating, above-average staffing (4.0/5), high quality measure scores (5.0/5), and 0.74 RN hours per resident daily — Palmelle trust score 44/100. There are 2 federal fine(s) on record — no date context, so worth asking about directly. Worth asking: This facility has received 2 federal fine(s) but still shows a 4.0-star overall rating. Federal penalties are serious — they indicate violations found during inspections. A high rating alongside recent penalties warrants extra scrutiny. Worth asking: Falls with major injury rate is 5.1% — above the national median of about 3%. A spike usually means call lights aren't getting answered fast enough or the facility is short on aides during transfer-heavy hours like mealtimes. Worth asking how long the call-light response window is during evening shifts.

Optalis Health and Rehabilitation at St. Francis

915 North River Road, Saginaw, MI 48609

Decent. Optalis Health and Rehabilitation at St. Francis brings high quality measure scores (5.0/5) — Palmelle trust score 39/100. There are 2 federal fine(s) on record — no date context, so worth asking about directly. Worth asking: Registered nurse hours are 0.30 per resident per day — below the recommended minimum of 0.75 hours. RNs are responsible for clinical assessments and oversight. Low RN coverage is associated with higher rates of hospitalization and missed diagnoses. Worth asking: Pressure ulcer rate is 2.5% — under half the national median. Means the floor staff are repositioning residents on schedule and catching skin breakdown early. Hands-on attention shows up in this number.

Great Lakes Rehabilitation Center

4180 Tittabawassee Road, Saginaw, MI 48604

Decent. Great Lakes Rehabilitation Center brings high quality measure scores (4.0/5) — Palmelle trust score 42/100. There are 1 federal fine(s) on record — no date context, so worth asking about directly. Worth asking: Pressure ulcer (bedsore) rate is 10.4% — well above the national median of about 7%. Pressure ulcers form when staff don't reposition residents every two hours. This is a staffing-and-attention signal as much as a clinical one. Worth asking what the repositioning schedule looks like. Worth asking: Long-stay antipsychotic rate is just 5% — well below the national median of about 14%. This facility is treating behavior and dementia symptoms with engagement, environmental design, and personalized routines instead of prescriptions. That's hard to do and rare to find.

Chesaning Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

201 South Front Street, Chesaning, MI 48616

Mixed. Chesaning Nursing and Rehabilitation Center has 2 federal fine(s) on record and a Palmelle trust score of 8/100. We don't have date context on those fines, so ask when they visit. Worth asking: This facility's long-stay antipsychotic rate is 58% — roughly three times the national median of about 14%. CMS already excludes residents with schizophrenia, Tourette's, and Huntington's from this measure, so this reflects prescribing for residents who don't have a primary psychotic diagnosis. Worth asking on a tour: 'How does my parent get back off these meds if started?'. Worth asking: Long-stay antianxiety / sleep medication rate is 42%. This category often shifts up when antipsychotic prescribing is restricted — different drug class, same effect on the resident. Worth asking the facility's prescribing rate for both classes side by side. Worth asking: Unplanned weight loss rate is 9.5% — above the national median of about 6%. In long-stay facilities this is almost always a feeding-assistance failure: residents who need help eating aren't getting it, especially at dinner when staffing thins. Worth asking how dinner-hour staffing compares to lunch.
