Overview of The Grove

Michael Bradshaw owns and operates The Grove, an 86-bed nursing home located on Pecan Drive in Columbia, Mississippi. The business office works with several insurance and financial setups, accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay options. For visitors, the surrounding neighborhood is moderately pedestrian-friendly, allowing family members to take care of a few simple errands on foot, though most trips through the area will require a vehicle.

Stays at this facility average roughly 318 days, which points to a daily workload that balances permanent residential care with short-term post-hospital therapy. To manage the clinical schedule, the 24-hour staffing model delivers an average of 5 hours and 5 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day. This time is distributed among registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides who handle daily medical checks and direct personal care.

State records track the property’s compliance history through regular licensing evaluations. Inspection files verify that the administration manages its clinical routines and building operations in line with statutory rules, managing tracking protocols effectively to keep the facility’s cumulative citations-per-inspection rate at zero.

Older adults have access to structured rehabilitation services, physical therapy loops, and spacious resident rooms. The campus features outdoor activity spaces and a restaurant-style dining area that provides daily meals planned around standard nutritional guidelines. The day-to-day schedule pairs these clinical programs and meal services with standard housekeeping chores, laundry assistance, and open visiting hours for family members.

Staff type
Hours / day / resident
vs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
28m
−37% State avg: 45m per day · National avg: 42m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
1h 44m
+35% State avg: 1h 17m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
2h 27m
−14% State avg: 2h 50m per day · National avg: 2h 24m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Info Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
3h 46m
−8% State avg: 4h 5m per day · National avg: 3h 30m per day
Physical Therapist Info Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
3m
+4% State avg: 3m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN Info Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
16m
−31% State avg: 23m per day · National avg: 29m per day
