Overview of Ambassador Healthcare

An 137-bed senior care community on East Main Street, Ambassador Healthcare provides nursing services in Centerville, Indiana. Run by administrator Jared Glaub alongside Medical Director David DeSantis and Nursing Director Dawn Imel, the building keeps its beds about 77 percent full. It accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, with residents staying an average of 126 days for either brief post-hospital rehab or permanent clinical placement.

The nursing staff provides about 3 hours and 34 minutes of direct care to each resident every day to keep up with around-the-clock medical oversight. Most of that hands-on help comes from nurse aides, who cover 2 hours and 34 minutes, while registered nurses handle 55 minutes and licensed practical nurses cover the remaining 41 minutes. Clinically, the building stands out for having its own inpatient dialysis center, along with a ventilator unit, a mental health program, and a secure memory care wing.

A state complaint investigation cleared the facility with zero deficiencies, while standard routine reviews required the team to correct issues involving personal privacy, call light access, skin care, and fire alarm maintenance. Outside the building, the location scores a 49 for walkability, so family members can expect a short drive for most visits.

Interested individuals can call the main desk to see which private or semi-private rooms are open, ask about the dialysis setup, or book a walkthrough. The front office can also break down the financial eligibility rules and give you the standard onboarding forms.

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.

vs avg

2 of 6 metrics below state avg

Standout metric Weekend RN is +69% above state 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. 55m per day ▲ 37% State avg: 40m per day · National avg: 41m 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. 41m per day ▼ 12% State avg: 46m per day · National avg: 52m 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 34m per day ▲ 13% State avg: 2h 16m per day · National avg: 2h 20m 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 52m per day ▲ 19% State avg: 3h 14m per day · National avg: 3h 26m 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. 3m per day ▼ 36% State avg: 4m per day · National avg: 4m 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. 46m per day ▲ 69% State avg: 27m per day · National avg: 28m per day
