CareQED Analysis

Southgate Health Care Center is a 140-bed nursing home in Metropolis, Illinois. It holds a 4-star CMS overall rating. Total nurse staffing is 2.9 hours per resident day, below the Illinois average of 3.5. Its most recent inspection, in March 2026, cited 2 deficiencies, one of them severe.

The facility has a relatively strong overall quality rating, which suggests generally acceptable performance on many measures. However, recent inspection findings — including a serious deficiency touching on resident care, medication practices, safety and assistance with daily activities — combined with staffing that is below the state average, make it worth asking what corrective actions, monitoring and staffing changes have been implemented to prevent similar problems.
