Overview of The Cedars at Broadwell

The Cedars at Broadwell is a 76-bed nursing home that provides skilled nursing, memory care, and rehabilitation services with 24-hour staffing. Admissions focus primarily on Medicaid recipients, who make up 77% of the census, alongside clients utilizing Medicare and private pay. Residents record an average length of stay of 88 days. Business records indicate notable financial and operational strain, highlighted by declining occupancy trends and a net operating loss of $326 thousand.

Oversight files from state health departments show a sharp contrast between excellent recent inspection reports and weaker long-term clinical data. The home’s most recent routine inspection in February 2025 turned up zero deficiencies, continuing a recent trend of clean state compliance reviews and unsubstantiated consumer complaints. This recent progress follows a heavier historical footprint, including 73 citations over a 15-year window, a $17,000 regulatory fine in 2024, and a 2018 substantiated complaint regarding injury protection.

Daily personnel depth tracks below average, with total nursing care averaging 3 hours and 15 minutes per resident daily to run 25% below the state norm, while registered nurse hours sit 44% below the state baseline. Clinical quality tracking aligns with these lower staffing volumes; long-stay charts show functional physical decline and walking deterioration running 23% to 47% worse than state averages, and short-stay records reveal serious fall rates at nearly four times the Nebraska average.

Families assessing regional skilled nursing options or short-term physical rehabilitation can look over these public records to analyze the provider’s overall trends. Since the official tracking profiles document strong recent compliance and zero deficiencies alongside thin daily care hours, elevated short-stay fall risks, and chronic long-term functional decline marks, the paperwork points to a facility with an improved regulatory record but persistent clinical challenges.
