Overview of Good Samaritan Society Sioux Falls Center

Good Samaritan Society Sioux Falls Center is a nonprofit nursing home in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, that offers long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, occupational therapy, and speech and language therapy. The 98-bed community operates under the Good Samaritan Society’s faith-based nonprofit mission and has received the AHCA Bronze National Quality Award in 2025 in recognition of its commitment to quality improvement and resident care. Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay residents are all welcome.

The community’s current occupancy rate of 73.2% falls below the state average, which suggests availability for immediate placements. Additionally, the average stay is approximately 68 days, which reflects a balanced mix of post-acute rehabilitation and longer-term skilled nursing support.

Health inspection scores rank notably higher than statewide benchmarks, while staffing and quality measures also exceed average performance levels. The community also recorded nearly four hours of nursing care per day on average, slightly above the state standard, with consistent weekend nursing coverage helping support continuity of care throughout the week.

The community has recorded a total of 14 health citations throughout its inspection cycle, with the most recent health inspection conducted in September 2025. Notably, all health citations were corrected. 24-hour admissions are also available, which is an important feature for individuals transitioning directly from hospitals or other acute care settings.

Therapy services are also provided, including occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, rehabilitation programming, and short-term rehab services. Home-based services and caregiver support resources are also available through broader Good Samaritan Society programs.

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.	49m per day	■ Avg State avg: 49m 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.	37m per day	▲ 29% State avg: 29m 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 4m per day	▼ 20% State avg: 2h 34m 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.	3h 4m per day	▼ 10% State avg: 3h 23m 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.	4m per day	▲ 34% 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.	26m per day	▼ 16% State avg: 31m per day · National avg: 29m per day
