Overview of Majestic Care of Bedford

Majestic Care of Bedford is a 190-bed skilled nursing facility in Bedford, Indiana, serving residents in Lawrence County. Occupancy has risen from roughly 30 percent in early 2023 to 55 percent in the latest inspection, trending upward. The facility offers skilled nursing, rehabilitation, memory care, and respite care with 24-hour staffing. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay accepted.

All four CMS sub-ratings fall below Indiana average, producing a 1-star overall rating. Nurse hours of 2h 42m per resident day sit 23 percent below state average, below the national 3.0-hour threshold generally considered a minimum floor, ranking the facility 254th out of 287 Indiana SNFs. Over three years on file, the facility averaged 10.3 deficiencies per year against Indiana’s 4.2 average, with no immediate jeopardy findings, fines, or enforcement actions, and most complaint investigations returning unsubstantiated. The deficiency record is concentrated in documentation failures rather than direct resident harm: transfer and discharge written notice requirements were cited in every annual survey in the window, 2023, 2024, and 2025, and range of motion decline deficiencies appeared in both the 2023 and 2024 surveys. Life safety surveys have cited sprinkler system maintenance and emergency preparedness documentation gaps in 2023, 2024, and 2025. One substantiated complaint in October 2023 found residents using e-cigarettes without safety assessments or care plans and identified unsanitary shower rooms.

The facility’s size of 190 beds, the largest in this batch, orients it toward Lawrence County residents requiring long-term skilled nursing or post-acute rehabilitation where immediate bed availability is a priority.

Quality ratings

Measured by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)

Overall rating Info 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.
Health Inspection Info 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.
Staffing Info 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.
Quality Measures Info 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.

vs avg

5 of 6 metrics below state avg

Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs 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 per day ▼ 31% State avg: 40m per day · National avg: 41m 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. 45m per day ▼ 3% State avg: 46m 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 18m per day ■ Avg State avg: 2h 16m per day · National avg: 2h 20m 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 5m per day ▼ 5% State avg: 3h 14m per day · National avg: 3h 26m 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. 1m per day ▼ 80% State avg: 4m 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. 19m per day ▼ 30% State avg: 27m per day · National avg: 28m per day
