Overview of Alice Hyde Medical Center

Alice Hyde Medical Center is a 135-bed nonprofit skilled nursing facility in Malone, Franklin County, established in 1968 and relocated to newly constructed Alice Center in 2015. Operating as part of University of Vermont Health Network, it provides short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, assisted living, independent living, respite care, and specialized memory care. Medicare and Medicaid certified with 92.8 percent occupancy averaging 125 residents, it maintains resident and family councils and integrates clinical services with hospital-affiliated emergency and specialty resources.

Alice Hyde received a three-star overall CMS rating, marginally below state average of 3.33 and equal to national average of 3.32. Health inspection rating is two stars; quality measures rating is five stars; staffing ratings reflect conflicting source data (ranging 2-4 stars). Recent inspection records documented 12 deficiencies, 198 complaints, and 12 citations. Which is a striking disparity indicating substantial operational or communication dysfunction beneath surface inspection findings. Licensed nursing hours average 1.52 hours per resident daily, marginally exceeding national average of 1.4 hours, though EveryPlace data characterizes RN-specific hours as below federal minimums. The facility carries one documented abuse citation and EveryPlace records reveal 10 complaint-triggered abuse and neglect investigations, creating heightened regulatory scrutiny regarding resident protection protocols and vulnerability management.

Alice Hyde offers skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, psychiatry, and comprehensive rehabilitation services. Modern facility infrastructure emphasizes community engagement, therapeutic programming, and individualized care planning. Hospital affiliation enables integrated medical management, on-site specialist availability, and emergency capability without external transfer. Partial sprinkler coverage provides building fire safety.

Family feedback demonstrates stark polarization. Recent testimonials praise dedicated nursing staff and modern facility appearance. Older reviews and EveryPlace analysis identify consistent patterns of administrative unresponsiveness, billing errors persisting post-discharge, medication management protocol failures, and near-inaccessible nursing station communication. This enduring administrative dysfunction surrounding billing accuracy, medication protocols, and staff accessibility suggests operational failures distinct from clinical care quality.

Alice Hyde represents a facility where five-star quality measures mask systemic communication and administrative deficiencies generating complaints at 16.5-fold excess relative to documented deficiencies. Families considering placement must establish written agreements with specific administrative contacts, obtain written discharge medication verification protocols before admission, conduct multiple unannounced visits across different time periods to assess communication responsiveness, and verify whether the abuse citation and ongoing complaint pattern have demonstrably resolved since investigation.

Staff type	Hours / Day / Resident	vs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) 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	▼ 10% State avg: 42m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN 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.	50m per day	▲ 9% State avg: 46m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide 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 21m per day	▲ 8% State avg: 2h 11m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Weekend Total Nursing 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 42m per day	▲ 17% State avg: 3h 10m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day
Physical Therapist 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	▼ 29% State avg: 7m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN 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.	27m per day	▼ 4% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 28m per day
