Staffing shows mixed performance. Registered nurses provide 39 minutes per resident per day, 9 percent below the Nebraska average of 43 minutes. Licensed practical nurses deliver 54 minutes per day, 26 percent above the state average of 43 minutes—notably strong. Nurse aides work 2 hours 35 minutes per day, 7 percent below the Nebraska average of 2 hours 46 minutes. Weekend total nursing hours reach 3 hours 38 minutes per day, matching the state average of 3 hours 37 minutes. Weekend registered nurse coverage is 25 minutes per day, 14 percent below the state average of 29 minutes. Physical therapy is a strength at 4 minutes per resident per day, 33 percent above the state average of 3 minutes. Occupancy runs at 97 percent with 58 residents in 60 beds, significantly above the Nebraska state average of 70.3 percent and indicating exceptional demand with minimal available capacity.

Brookestone View’s inspection record documents serious historical concerns followed by recent improvement. The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Public Health, conducted 17 visits and inspections. The most recent inspection on March 13, 2025, showed no deficiencies and confirmed licensure renewal and occupancy permit status. Earlier inspections identified deficiencies centered on resident care monitoring, medication management, infection control, and fire safety compliance. Notable issues included failure to notify physicians of resident condition changes and inadequate supervision. A substantiated complaint from 2019 involved inadequate monitoring and notification that contributed to a resident’s death. Most other complaint investigations were unsubstantiated. The absence of deficiencies in the most recent reports indicates improvement compared to prior years.

The facility’s history includes a documented fatal incident from inadequate monitoring and the prior pattern of deficiencies in supervision and notification.

Despite recent compliance improvement, families should ask about physician notification protocols, resident monitoring practices, staffing supervision systems, and corrective measures implemented following the 2019 incident.

Staffing hours breakdown

Info 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.

Hours per resident per day — compared to Nebraska state averages

Staff typeHours / dayvs 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. 39m per day ▼ 9% State avg: 43m 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. 54m per day ▲ 26% State avg: 43m 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 35m per day ▼ 7% State avg: 2h 46m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Total Nursing (Weekend) 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 38m per day ■ Avg State avg: 3h 37m 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. 4m per day ▲ 33% State avg: 3m per day · National avg: 4m per day
RN (Weekend) 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. 25m per day ▼ 14% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day
