Burbank Healthcare & Rehab ratings and staffing

Burbank Healthcare & Rehab is located at 1041 S. Main St. in Burbank, Los Angeles County. It is a for-profit facility operated by Burbank Healthcare LLC, part of Longwood Management Corporation, with 188 certified beds and an average of 181.3 residents a day. It accepts Medicare and Medicaid.

CMS rates every certified nursing home in three separate categories, and the overall star is a blend of them:

  • Health inspections, based on what state surveyors observe in person during unannounced visits. Weight this one most heavily, because it does not rely on data the facility reports about itself.
  • Staffing, drawn from payroll-based records of how much nursing time each resident actually receives.
  • Quality measures, built largely from data the facility submits. Read a high score here with more caution than the other two.

For Burbank Healthcare & Rehab, those scores are: health inspections 1 of 5, staffing 4 of 5, quality measures 2 of 5.

Staffing. Burbank Healthcare & Rehab reports 4.06 total nursing hours per resident per day, of which 0.46 are registered nurse hours. Over the reporting year, 41% of the nursing staff left. Registered nurses supervise aides, catch medication errors before they reach a resident, and notice when a person's condition is changing. Staffing is the single number that most reliably predicts whether a facility catches a problem early or lets it become a crisis.

Abuse warning. CMS currently flags Burbank Healthcare & Rehab with its abuse icon, which marks facilities cited for abuse that led to harm, or for repeat abuse findings, in recent inspection cycles.

How this home compares in the public record

CMS publishes each home's star rating and its payroll-based staffing hours, and it publishes the federal fines it has imposed. The county and California figures beside each number are the averages across those same published records.

CMS overall rating 1 of 5 Los Angeles County average 2.46 of 5 across 367 rated homes. California average 3.16 of 5 across 1,154 rated homes
Nursing hours per resident per day 4.06 Los Angeles County average 4.60. California average 4.52
Federal fines $31,803 Los Angeles County average $43,612 per home. California average $24,666 per home

These figures are taken from public CMS Care Compare records as of August 2026 (the August 2026 release) and public CDPH records as of June 2024 (the state enforcement dataset of August 27, 2024). They are reported as published and are not a recommendation, endorsement or assessment of any facility by this firm. How these figures were assembled.

Homes in Glendale, Burbank and the Verdugos with a higher CMS overall rating

CMS rates each of these homes above Burbank Healthcare & Rehab on the overall star rating it publishes. The rating is one measure of a facility's record, and each page below carries that home's own inspection findings, staffing hours and citation history.

These figures are taken from public CMS Care Compare records as of August 2026 (the August 2026 release) and public CDPH records as of June 2024 (the state enforcement dataset of August 27, 2024). They are reported as published and are not a recommendation, endorsement or assessment of any facility by this firm. How these figures were assembled.

California state citations

California inspects and cites nursing homes separately from the federal government. The Department of Public Health issues three classes of citation. A class AA citation is a class A violation that the Department of Public Health determined was a direct proximate cause of a resident's death. A class A citation is a violation the Department determined presented an imminent danger of death or serious harm to residents, or a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm would result. A class B citation is a violation the Department determined had a direct or immediate relationship to residents' health, safety or security, other than a class AA or A violation.

State records show 13 citations against Burbank Healthcare & Rehab between January 12, 2001 and May 31, 2024: 5 class A and 8 class B, with $104,650 in assessed penalties. 1 of these actions were connected to a resident's death.

and 1 earlier citation, in the CDPH record linked under Sources.

Across Los Angeles County's 369 certified facilities, the average is about 11.3 state citations per facility. Burbank Healthcare & Rehab's 13 is close to that average.

A citation marked "Appealed." is under appeal, so it is not a final determination. A citation records a determination by state surveyors. A citation does not by itself establish that any particular resident was injured or that the facility is liable to anyone.

Other nursing homes in Los Angeles County

These are other nursing homes in Los Angeles County, listed by how close each home's ZIP code is to the ZIP code for Burbank Healthcare & Rehab. The public record gives a street address but no coordinates, so distance is not measured; homes in the same ZIP code appear first. No rating or inspection figure is used to order this list.

This list is drawn from public CMS Care Compare records as of August 2026 (the August 2026 release) and public CDPH records as of June 2024 (the state enforcement dataset of August 27, 2024). It is ordered by location only and is not a recommendation, endorsement or assessment of any facility by this firm. How these figures were assembled.

What to do if you are worried about care at this facility

You will usually notice something is wrong before anyone official does, and you do not need proof before you act. If you are concerned about care at Burbank Healthcare & Rehab, you can take these steps:

Write down what you see. Note dates, times, and specific concerns, and photograph anything relevant. A clear, contemporaneous record matters if an investigation follows.

File a complaint with the California Department of Public Health. CDPH licenses and inspects skilled nursing facilities and investigates complaints, and a serious complaint can trigger an on-site inspection. You can file online through CDPH's Cal Health Find system, which routes your complaint to the Los Angeles County licensing district office.

Contact the Long-Term Care Ombudsman. The ombudsman is a free advocate who will visit your loved one, look into your concerns, and press the facility on their behalf. Los Angeles County's ombudsman program can be reached at (800) 334-9473. This is often the fastest first step when the issue is care quality rather than an emergency.

Call Adult Protective Services or 911 if you believe an elder is in immediate danger. Los Angeles County APS: (877) 477-3646.

We came to this work from the other side. We spent years defending nursing homes, which means we know how a facility builds a file to protect itself and where the gaps in that file tend to be. Under California's Elder Abuse Act (Welfare and Institutions Code sections 15600 to 15675), a family that proves, by clear and convincing evidence, that neglect was committed with recklessness, oppression, fraud or malice can recover remedies beyond an ordinary injury claim, including attorney's fees (section 15657).
