Bayshore Nursing & Rehab: Pest Control Failure - WI
The pest control citation was classified as widespread, meaning inspectors determined the problem was not isolated to a single room or wing. No resident was documented as having been directly harmed. But inspectors concluded the conditions carried potential for more than minimal harm to the people living there.
That distinction matters in federal inspection language. A finding of "potential for more than minimal harm" is the threshold at which a deficiency moves from a paperwork problem into something regulators treat as a genuine risk to residents. Widespread scope means the failure extended broadly across the facility, not a corner that had been overlooked.
Bayshore reported it corrected the pest control deficiency by November 12, 2025, six weeks after inspectors cited it.
The pest finding fell under the category of environmental deficiencies, the part of federal inspection standards that covers the physical conditions residents live inside every day. For people who cannot leave their rooms without assistance, who may be bedbound, who may have open wounds or compromised immune systems, the environment is not a background detail. It is their entire world.
The inspection that produced the pest citation was triggered by a complaint, not a routine survey cycle. Complaint inspections are initiated when someone, a resident, a family member, a staff member, or an anonymous caller, contacts regulators with a concern serious enough to send inspectors out. The September 30 visit was that kind of inspection. What inspectors found when they arrived was extensive enough to fill 39 separate deficiency citations.
Thirty-nine deficiencies in a single inspection is a substantial number. Federal inspectors organize their findings into categories: care quality, resident rights, staffing, pharmacy, nutrition, environment, and others. A facility that generates 39 citations across one visit has drawn findings across multiple domains, not a single bad department or one lapsed policy. The full scope of what inspectors documented beyond the pest control finding is not contained in this report.
What is documented is that Bayshore Nursing & Rehab, a nursing home in Glendale serving residents who depend on the facility for their daily care and safety, was found to be operating without an adequate pest control program. Mice. Insects. Other pests. The citation does not specify which. It specifies that the program to prevent and address them was deficient, and that the deficiency was widespread.
Nursing homes in Wisconsin are licensed by the state and also subject to federal certification requirements tied to Medicare and Medicaid funding. Federal inspections are conducted by state health surveyors on behalf of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. When inspectors cite a deficiency, the facility is required to submit a plan of correction and a date by which the problem will be resolved. Bayshore submitted November 12 as its correction date for the pest control failure.
Whether the other 38 deficiencies cited during the same inspection have been corrected, and on what timeline, is not reflected in this report.
For the residents of Bayshore, the gap between September 30, when inspectors documented the problem, and November 12, when the facility reported it fixed, was six weeks. Six weeks in a building where the pest control program had been found inadequate enough to draw a widespread federal citation. Six weeks for people who live there around the clock, who eat their meals there, who sleep there, who cannot simply decide to go somewhere else.
The facility's address is in Glendale, a suburb north of Milwaukee. It is a nursing and rehabilitation facility, meaning it serves both long-term residents and shorter-stay patients recovering from surgery, illness, or injury. Both populations were present during the period inspectors examined.
Federal inspection records for Bayshore Nursing & Rehab are publicly available through the CMS Care Compare database. The September 30, 2025 inspection, the one that produced 39 deficiencies and a widespread pest control finding, is part of that record.
The correction date has passed. Whether what was corrected holds is a question that only the next inspection will answer.

Additional Resources
Data source: This article is based on inspection data downloaded directly from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) via Medicare.gov. CMS releases inspection reports in bulk; we publish the findings as documented by state surveyors in the official Form CMS-2567 Statement of Deficiencies.
Plan of correction: The CMS report we receive does not include the facility's plan of correction. Facilities submit plans of correction separately to state survey agencies and those responses may not be reflected in CMS data at the time of publication. The absence of a plan of correction in our data does not mean one was not filed. Readers who want information about corrective steps taken are encouraged to contact the facility directly or their state survey agency.
Corrections may have occurred: Inspection reports reflect conditions observed on the date of the survey. Facilities may have implemented corrections, staffing changes, additional training, or other remediation since the report was issued. We report what CMS provides and encourage readers to seek current information from the facility.
Editorial process: Inspection findings are extracted from CMS source documents and synthesized using AI, reviewed for factual accuracy against the original report by our editorial team.
