Edgecombe Health Center by Harborview

1000 Western Boulevard, Tarboro, NC 27886

Decent. Edgecombe Health Center by Harborview brings no federal fines on record — Palmelle trust score 39/100. Worth asking: Registered nurse hours are 0.40 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 (bedsore) rate is 11.1% — 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: Unplanned weight loss rate is 15.0% — 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. Worth asking: Mobility-decline rate is 36.0% — meaning that share of long-stay residents lost ability to move between measurements (above the national median of about 17%). High decline suggests no PT/OT program or no daily walking — residents are being allowed to become bed-bound. Worth asking what the rehab and activities calendar actually looks like. Worth asking: Long-stay antipsychotic rate is just 6% — 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.

Tarboro Health and Rehabilitation LLC

911 Western Boulevard, Tarboro, NC 27886

Decent. Tarboro Health and Rehabilitation LLC brings a 4.0-star CMS rating, strong inspection scores (4.0/5), low staff turnover (35%), and no federal fines on record — Palmelle trust score 83/100. Worth asking: Long-stay antianxiety / sleep medication rate is 25%. 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: Falls with major injury rate is 1.2% — well below the national median. Call lights are getting answered fast and aides are present during transfer-heavy hours. This is a hard number to keep low. Worth asking: Annual nursing staff turnover is 35% — well below the industry average of 50-60%. The same caregivers are coming back week after week, which means residents see familiar faces who know their preferences and history. Continuity of care is one of the biggest invisible quality signals.
