Overview of Oakland Heights

Oakland Heights is a 45-bed skilled nursing home located at 207 South Engdahl Avenue in Oakland, Nebraska. The facility manages several financial paths by accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. For visitors, the surrounding neighborhood is moderately walkable with a score of 53 out of 100, meaning families can complete some small errands on foot, but a car remains practical for most travel.

Residents stay an average of 770 days, which indicates a population focused almost entirely on long-term residential living rather than quick post-hospital turnarounds. This consistent demand keeps the building running at a 93 percent occupancy level. Around-the-clock staffing handles daily care needs by providing 4 hours and 27 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day, utilizing a combined team of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides.

State health department inspection logs show that the facility operates within typical regulatory lines for clinical care and building safety. Oversight records verify that the property maintains a consistent compliance history across its routine surveys, resulting in an overall cumulative citations-per-inspection rate of zero.

Prospective residents have access to a library, a fitness center, outdoor common areas, an on-site salon, and a regular calendar of daily events. The kitchen prepares meals that are served in a centralized dining room tailored to basic nutritional standards.

Hours per resident per day — compared to state averages

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. 38m per day ▼ 12% State avg: 43m 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. 43m per day ■ Avg State avg: 43m 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 36m per day ▼ 6% State avg: 2h 46m 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.

Physical Therapist Info Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants.

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. 21m per day ▼ 28% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day
