High fines for nursing North Carolina homes

State and federal nursing home regulators have imposed some of North Carolina’s heftier fines on Triad nursing homes during the past several years, including a High Point nursing home hit with a pair of penalties totaling $372,970.

The region is home to 11 skilled-nursing facilities where government inspectors found “serious deficiencies” in patient care or nursing home accommodations, according to information compiled from Medicare files by the ProPublica nonprofit journalism group.
