Under the ownership of Vicksburg Management Associates and the administration of Amy Brown, Vicksburg Convalescent Center operates a 100-bed skilled nursing facility on Cherry Street in downtown Vicksburg, Mississippi. The facility processes payments through Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay options. For visitors, the surrounding neighborhood is highly pedestrian-friendly, meaning family members can complete most daily errands on foot when coming to the property.
Residents stay an average of 291 days, a timeline that reflects an operational balance between multi-month residential care and short-term post-hospital therapy. To manage the daily medical schedule, the 24-hour staffing setup delivers an average of 3 hours and 28 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day, with registered nurses providing 49 minutes of that daily clinical oversight.
State licensing logs track the property’s regulatory compliance through regular public health reviews. Compliance files indicate that the administration manages its clinical charting and building routines within statutory lines, resulting in zero deficiencies on recent inspection reports and maintaining a cumulative citations-per-inspection rate of zero.
Interested individuals can access on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapies alongside specialized respiratory and tracheostomy support. The community features an on-site salon and barber shop, with meals prepared daily to meet standard nutritional guidelines.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
This home is ranked 99th out of 110 homes in Mississippi for nurse hours. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
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.
| 49m per day | ▲ 29% State avg: 38m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
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 16m per day | ▲ 15% State avg: 1h 6m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
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 33m per day | ▲ 3% State avg: 2h 29m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
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.
| 2h 24m per day | ▼ 32% State avg: 3h 31m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
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.
| 1m per day | ▼ 50% State avg: 2m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
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.
| 22m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 22m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
