More about South Mountain Rehab Center
The work is skilled nursing and rehabilitation: care plans, long-stay residents, and the steady rhythm of a nursing home floor. Charting runs on Point Click Care. Part-time LPN postings have listed roughly $27–$34 an hour. Full-time MDS RN listings name PTO, 401k, and health, dental, and vision. The center has publicly thanked a GNA with eighteen years on the job, so long tenure is not invisible here. Staffing is the honest tradeoff. CMS-derived figures put the staffing star at 2.0, with total nurse hours per resident day around 3.36 and turnover above half for staff and RNs. If you want rehab nursing in a quieter Maryland town without Frederick housing prices, this is the concrete picture.
