SMP Health – Ave Maria is a 58-bed skilled nursing facility in Jamestown, North Dakota, offering short-term rehabilitation and transitional care, as well as traditional skilled nursing, long-term care, memory care, spiritual care, and palliative services. The facility is operated by the Sisters of Mary of the Presentation, a nonprofit Catholic health care ministry. It accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
The facility holds a 5-star CMS overall rating, with both Health Inspection and staffing scores running above the North Dakota average. Adjusted total nurse staffing averages 6 hours and 9 minutes per resident per day — 24% above the state average of 4 hours and 58 minutes and second-highest among 25 ranked North Dakota SNFs. Quality Measures are rated below the state average, which is worth noting for long-stay residents with complex clinical needs.
Across four inspections between 2022 and 2024, the facility recorded 3.3 deficiencies per year, 15% better than the North Dakota average. A June 2024 complaint investigation was substantiated: a CNA was found to have placed a cloth in a resident’s mouth to silence her and was suspended pending investigation. No fines or Immediate Jeopardy findings appeared in the inspection record.
The facility’s occupancy rate is 95.7%, above the state average of 87.8%, indicating consistent local demand. Confirmed services include 24-hour nursing coverage.
SMP Health – Ave Maria is best suited for residents seeking skilled nursing or post-acute rehabilitation in a nonprofit, mission-driven setting — including those for whom the integration of spiritual care is a priority.
Luther Memorial Home is a 41-bed nursing facility owned and operated by Brett Ulrich in North Dakota. Financial structures at the property support several billing configurations, accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. For visitors, the surrounding neighborhood carries a walkability score of 55 out of 100, which means the area is moderately pedestrian-friendly, allowing family members to handle a few basic errands on foot while most trips require a vehicle.
Operating for 42 years, the facility maintains a stable baseline with a 91 percent occupancy level. To manage clinical routines, the 24-hour staffing model delivers an average of 6 hours and 11 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day through an on-staff physician, registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides. This level of clinical staffing supports an operational load focused on comprehensive daily medical oversight and long-term residency.
State oversight logs document the property’s recurring regulatory compliance reviews. While historical inspection reports have tracked themes centered on infection control practices and resident assessment accuracy, recent files confirm the administration monitors these protocols to align with state rules, maintaining a cumulative citations-per-inspection rate of zero.
Individuals have access to physical, occupational, and speech therapy loops alongside temporary respite setups and scheduled spiritual programs. The property features a secured outdoor courtyard, an on-site barber shop, and a licensed beautician. The daily schedule balances targeted rehabilitation sessions and personal care support with individual and group activities, laundry assistance, and open visiting windows for family members.
