Situated at 5668 Strathmoor Drive in Rockford, Illinois, a single-story nursing home just 0.13 miles from OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center, Alden Park Strathmoor operates 189 beds serving nursing home residents, memory care patients, and short-term rehabilitation and post-acute care admissions. Owner Nikolina Kuljanin operates the facility as a privately held business. The community accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay residents and maintains an occupancy rate of 73.8%, slightly above the Illinois state average. Average resident stay is 95 days.
Walk score of 33 indicates that most daily errands require transportation beyond the immediate area.
The facility holds a 2-star overall CMS rating. Health inspection performance rates 2 stars, 28% below the Illinois average. Staffing carries a significantly lower 1-star rating, 53.2% below state benchmark.
Total adjusted nursing hours average 2 hours 29 minutes per resident daily; ranked 125th of 167 facilities statewide. Registered nurses provide just 29 minutes per resident daily, 34% below the state standard, limiting clinical assessment capacity. Notably, the facility deploys contractors for nearly half of its 282-person workforce, with 66 contract CNAs, 28 contract RNs, and additional contract staff across multiple roles.
The facility achieves a 4-star rating on quality measures, 77.6% above the Illinois average. Long-stay residents show dramatically lower rates of functional decline, pressure ulcer development, unintended weight loss, and depressive symptoms compared to state peers. Hospitalization rates run 49% below average; emergency department visits are 66% lower. Walking ability is preserved better than expected, and urinary tract infection rates are zero.
Short-stay rehabilitation outcomes are mixed: Emergency department visits fall 82% below state average, but successful return to home or community reaches only 36.8%; 27% worse than the state norm.
Two federal civil money penalties issued over three years totaled $165,000.
Financial constraints are evident: the facility operated at a $281,600 loss in 2023, with a negative profit margin of 1.9%.
Alden Park Strathmoor, supported primarily by private-pay residents, demonstrates exceptional clinical quality for long-stay care despite below-average staffing investment and financial pressures.
