Overview of Alden Estates of Jefferson

Operated under owner Gerard Bodalski, Alden Estates of Jefferson is a skilled nursing facility in Jefferson, Wisconsin. The community focuses on short-term rehabilitation and medically complex care. Families can pay through Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay when arranging coverage for rehabilitation services or longer-term nursing care.

Rehabilitation is at the center of the facility’s clinical program. Specialized services include orthopedic rehabilitation, cardiac rehabilitation, neuro-stroke rehabilitation, and pulmonary rehabilitation. Residents recovering from surgery, a stroke, a cardiac event, or other acute medical conditions make up much of the community.

The facility’s occupancy rate is 97%, with 120 residents in care. Most stay an average of 82 days, a population largely focused on post-acute recovery. Residents receive an average of 3 hours and 5 minutes of nursing care each day. Registered nurses, nurse aides, and licensed practical nurses provide that support through 24-hour staffing.

The neighborhood has a Walk Score of 78, so it’s highly walkable for visitors and nearby family members. Many errands can be handled on foot, and it’s very accessible for visitors. Restaurant-style dining is part of daily life, with four-course meals served at lunch and dinner. Residents also have access to a hair and nail salon, complimentary WiFi, and an aviary. There’s also a comprehensive therapy program that supports the facility’s rehabilitation focus.

Families considering either a rehabilitation stay or ongoing nursing should take a tour to see the layout, room options, and daily care routines.

Quality ratings

Measured by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)

Overall rating Info The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Health Inspection Info Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Staffing Info Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Quality Measures Info Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.

Staffing hours breakdown

Info Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.

Hours per resident per day — compared to state averages

Total nursing care / resident Info Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
3h 5m per day
Rank #159 / 178Nurse hours — State benchmarkedThis home is ranked 159th out of 178 homes in Wisconsin. Shows adjusted nurse hours per resident per day benchmarked to the Wisconsin average, with a ranking across 178 Wisconsin facilities. More hours mean more direct care. The national average is about 3.5 hrs; below 3.0 is a red flag.Rankings are based only on facilities in Wisconsin that report data for that category.

vs avg
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. 49m 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. 32m 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 14m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Info Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours. 3h 7m per day
Physical Therapist Info Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation. 5m per day
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. 30m per day
