Staffing hours breakdown
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.
| Staff type | Hours / day | 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 | ■ Avg State avg: 43m 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.
| 40m per day | ▼ 7% State avg: 43m 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 57m per day | ▲ 7% State avg: 2h 46m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
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 28m per day | ▼ 4% State avg: 3h 37m 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 | ▼ 67% State avg: 3m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
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 | ▲ 3% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day |

Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on March 13, 2025, found no deficiencies and confirmed Brookefield Park meets statutory requirements for licensure renewal as a skilled nursing facility. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies mainly related to resident care documentation, infection control, food safety, and life safety code issues such as fire safety equipment and exit signage. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated, with one substantiated case in 2016 where the facility failed to protect a resident from injury but took immediate corrective actions without formal citations. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license suspensions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history shows improvement over time, with recent renewal inspections consistently free of deficiencies.
