CMS (the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) is the federal agency that rates nursing home quality. Its Overall Rating runs from 1 to 5 stars, combining health inspections, staffing, and quality measures, with inspections weighted most heavily.
Bayside Healthcare Center is a skilled nursing facility at 3201 Wall Boulevard in Gretna, Louisiana. Serving Jefferson Parish, the center is operated by Hometown Healthcare Management and accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
The facility holds a 2-star overall CMS rating, with a 2-star quality measures sub-rating that aligns with the state average. The staffing sub-rating is 1 star; total adjusted nursing hours are 3 hours and 8 minutes per resident per day, which is 18% below the Louisiana average. RN coverage is 10 minutes per day—47% below the state benchmark—and all six tracked staffing metrics fall below Louisiana averages.
The Louisiana Department of Health, Health Standards Section, oversees inspections. Bayside holds a 3-star health inspection sub-rating and maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of 4.0. A September 2025 survey cited deficiencies including improper infection control during wound care, inadequate labeling of enteral feeding equipment, and significant pest control issues in resident rooms and dining areas. Current occupancy is 57.1%, which is below the state average of 71.8%.
Service programs include physical, occupational, and speech therapies, as well as memory care and respite services. The facility serves a predominantly long-term care population, with an average stay of 306 days. Programming includes arts, crafts, and outdoor walking. Since specific monthly rates and ancillary fees are not provided in public reports, families should request a current fee schedule during a facility tour.
Families seeking a facility with available capacity and broad care offerings may find this environment appropriate. Those evaluating the center should weigh the low staffing ratings and the environmental findings from the most recent inspection alongside an in-person visit before making a placement decision.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
This home is ranked 163rd out of 182 homes in Louisiana for nurse hours. 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.
| 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.
| 8m per day | ▼ 56% State avg: 19m 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.
| 1h 6m per day | ▼ 5% State avg: 1h 10m 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.
| 1h 54m per day | ▼ 18% State avg: 2h 20m 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.
| 2h 42m per day | ▼ 18% State avg: 3h 18m per day · National avg: 3h 27m 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.
| 2m per day | ▼ 31% State avg: 3m 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.
| 6m per day | ▼ 48% State avg: 12m per day · National avg: 29m per day |
