Warren Nursing & Rehab: 16 Deficiencies, No Fix Plan - OH
The citation, filed under the facility's infection control program, found that Warren Nursing & Rehab failed to follow its own antibiotic stewardship policy, last revised in July 2025. That policy required the facility's Infection Preventionist, or a designated stand-in, to review every clinical infection treated with antibiotics and record findings on approved surveillance tracking forms. Inspectors found the requirement wasn't being met.
The violation was classified as affecting many residents.
Antibiotic stewardship programs exist because antibiotic misuse and poor tracking create conditions for resistant infections to develop and spread inside facilities. When a nursing home fails to monitor which antibiotics are being used, for which infections, and with what outcomes, it loses the ability to catch patterns, identify problems, or course-correct before harm spreads. The facility's own infection control policy, in place since at least 2018, identified preventing, detecting, investigating, and controlling infections as core objectives.
The citation was triggered by a complaint, not a routine inspection. The facility is disputing it.
Warren Nursing & Rehab is located at 2473 North Rd NE in Warren, Ohio. The inspection was completed on the last day of 2025 and printed in April 2026.
Whether any resident suffered a drug-resistant infection or a treatment failure during the period when oversight lapsed, the inspection report does not say. What it documents is a facility that wrote the rules, updated them as recently as five months before the inspection, and still did not follow them.

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.
