Overview of Good Samaritan Society – Osceola

Good Samaritan Society – Osceola is a 47-bed nonprofit nursing home in Osceola, Nebraska, serving a mix of short-term rehabilitation and long-term care residents in Polk County. It is operated by the Good Samaritan Society under the administration of Melissa Vandewalle. The facility holds dual SNF/NF certification and accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

CMS rates the facility 4 stars overall, anchored by a 5-star Health Inspection rating — 44.9% above the Nebraska average. Since 2022, four inspections have produced 16 total citations against a state average of 18.2, with zero critical or serious findings and no federal penalties in the past three years. The staffing picture is more qualified: total nurse staffing averages 3 hours and 15 minutes per resident per day, roughly 25% below the Nebraska average, though LPN hours are 30% above the state norm.

Rehabilitation services and respite care are available on-site. Amenities include a community room, library, dining room, and salon. An active Resident Council meets regularly, along with caregiver support and home-based service programs. The facility’s starting cost is approximately $3,526 per month.

The facility’s 2-star Quality Measures rating warrants attention for families considering long-term placement: the facility’s UTI rate and weight-loss figures run well above Nebraska averages, which accounts for the gap between its strong inspection record and the QM sub-score. The facility’s occupancy rate is 74%, modestly above the state average of 70%.

Good Samaritan Society – Osceola is best suited for residents in Osceola and rural Polk County seeking post-acute rehabilitation or long-term skilled nursing care within a nonprofit, church-affiliated setting. Families considering longer-term placement may want to ask about clinical outcomes tied to nutrition and infection management.

Standout metric LPN / LVN is +17% above state avg

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.	36m per day	▼ 17% 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.	50m per day	▲ 17% 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.	1h 56m per day	▼ 30% State avg: 2h 46m 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 57m per day	▼ 18% 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.	0m per day	▼ 91% 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.	31m per day	▲ 5% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day
