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.
Braun Nursing Home, established in 1957 and operated by Envive Of River City LLC, has 71 beds for nursing home residents. Located at 909 North First Avenue in Evansville’s Jacobsville neighborhood, it accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay admissions. Current occupancy stands at 38.8% (27 residents), notably below the state average of 69.4%, with average resident stays of 116 days.
A walk score of 67 places it in a moderately walkable area, 1.2 miles from downtown.
The facility carries a 1-star overall CMS rating, 66.8% below Indiana’s benchmark; the state’s lowest tier. Health inspection ratings score 2 stars, 26.7% below state average. Staffing ratings earn 1 star, 60.8% below state average, with total nursing hours of 2 hours 50 minutes per resident daily.
However, the facility has avoided federal penalties and payment denials over three years; 28 deficiencies documented across four inspections with zero critical or serious citations.
Walking ability declines in 37.6% of residents; 162% worse than peers. Falls with major injury affect 12.4%—220% above the state rate. Depressive symptoms manifest in 60.9%; 153% worse than Indiana average. Functional decline scores 28.9 (69% worse than peers), and high-risk clinical events score 16.7 (109% above state norm).
October 2024 routine inspection identified elopement safety failures: two residents left independently without proper guardianship or physician notification; one resident with court-appointed guardianship due to schizophrenia left the facility on four documented occasions without communicating with her guardian. Fall prevention interventions were documented in care plans but not physically implemented; non-slip bathroom strips required by documented fall assessments were absent. December 2024 complaint investigation corroborated medication protocol failures: lisinopril administered without obtaining required blood pressure checks; fall interventions documented in plans but not executed; shift-by-shift care plan updates lacking for incident response.
The facility reported an $825,000 operating loss with -24.5% profit margin. Contractor staff comprise 74% of the workforce.
Braun Nursing Home serves primarily long-term Medicaid residents at critically low occupancy, with severe documented clinical outcome deficiencies and recent inspection findings indicating failures in medication safety, fall prevention execution, elopement supervision, and care plan implementation.
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 245th out of 291 homes in Indiana 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.
| 43m per day | ▲ 7% State avg: 40m 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.
| 30m per day | ▼ 35% 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 | ▲ 4% State avg: 2h 16m per day · National avg: 2h 21m 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 1m per day | ▼ 7% State avg: 3h 14m 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.
| 1m per day | ▼ 75% State avg: 4m 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.
| 34m per day | ▲ 26% State avg: 27m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Net patient revenue — what the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts are subtracted from its gross charges (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It covers resident care only; money the home earns from other sources is shown separately as "Other income."
Net patient income: net patient revenue minus the home's total operating expenses. A positive figure means it earns more from resident care than it spends to deliver it; a negative figure means the opposite. It excludes non-operating "other income."
