RIDGECREST HEALTHCARE AND REHABILITATION CENTER

561 E RIDGECREST RD, FORNEY, TX 75126

Ridgecrest Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center has a solid story, but it’s one with a bit of a plot twist you’ll want to explore. On the upside, the staffing numbers here are legitimately strong, meaning when you press that call button at 2 AM, you can generally count on someone showing up, and the fact that staff tend to stick around suggests a more stable environment.

MABANK NURSING CENTER

18957 US HWY 175 W., MABANK, TX 75147

Mabank Nursing Center is a bit of a paradox; while they're doing a genuinely great job keeping residents from developing bedsores, with a rate that's less than half the national average, and keeping falls that result in major injury to a similar low, it suggests the frontline staff are really on the ball with repositioning and prompt responses. However, their nursing turnover sits at a rather high 47%, meaning you might see a lot of new faces, which can impact continuity of care.

Lakeside Health and Wellness

110 N State Hwy 274, Kemp, TX 75143

Lakeside Health and Wellness, despite a decent showing on resident outcomes for things like managing pain and preventing falls, has some serious red flags that you need to see before you even step foot in the door. You can press the call button, but the fact that three-quarters of their nursing staff are bailing every year means you'll likely be meeting a new face every other week, which isn't exactly a recipe for consistent, familiar care.
