Total nursing staffing is given approximately 4 hours and 41 minutes per resident on a daily basis, which supports the daily hands-on assistance that nursing home residents require.

Overview of Allison Care Center

Lakewood’s Allison Care Center sits on Allison Street, an 85-bed skilled nursing facility that also runs hospice, memory care, and respite programs. Savanah Stark administers the community for its owner, Allison Care Center, LLC. The neighborhood scores 85 on Walk Score, so if you’re visiting, you can actually walk to a coffee shop or a pharmacy instead of getting back in the car every time.

Here’s the thing about the numbers: 90% of the 85 beds are filled right now, and the average resident sticks around for 446 days. That’s over a year, on average, which tells you this place handles a real mix: people recovering from a hip replacement alongside people who need ongoing skilled nursing for the long haul.

Nurses and aides combined put in 3 hours and 32 minutes per resident every day. RNs account for 36 of those minutes, LPNs and LVNs add 50, and nurse aides cover 2 hours and 5 minutes, the largest single chunk.

There’s rehab, respite, and 24-hour staffing on-site. Three named programs cover the range: rehabilitation and wellness for people bouncing back from illness or injury, short-term and respite stays for families who need temporary relief, and hospice and comfort care for residents nearing the end of life. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.

This is a facility built less for one narrow type of resident and more for range: hospital discharges who need a bridge back to independence, and residents whose care needs are permanent and ongoing, both find a lane here.
