What should families ask before choosing Patapsco Healthcare?

- Ask how many residents each nurse aide covers on evening and night shifts -- CMS rates staffing here low.
- Ask about staff retention; nursing turnover of 55% means many caregivers are new.
- Ask what led to the federal fine and how the issue was corrected.
- Short-stay quality (4 stars) and long-stay quality (2 stars) differ; ask which unit your parent would be on.
- Ask whether the facility accepts Maryland Medicaid for long-term care if a rehab stay turns into a permanent one.
