Grand View Care Center is a 50-bed skilled nursing facility in Blair, Wisconsin, providing a care mix that includes short-term rehabilitation, 24-hour skilled nursing, memory care, and respite stays in Trempealeau County. The nonprofit center is operated by Grand View Care Center Inc. and accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. The facility holds a 1-star overall CMS rating. The Health Inspection sub-rating — the primary driver — is 66.8% below the Wisconsin average. Across inspections from 2022 through 2025, Grand View averaged 8 deficiencies per year, 74% above the state figure of 4.6. The record includes a February 2025 Immediate Jeopardy finding for inadequate pressure injury care affecting two residents and substantiated findings of staff physical abuse and repeated failures to report abuse incidents to state authorities within required timeframes. No fines or formal enforcement actions appear in the available reports. Staffing runs in the other direction: nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 15 minutes per resident per day, roughly 10.5% above the Wisconsin average. Meals are served in a full-kitchen dining room, and an active Resident Council meets regularly to discuss the quality of care and facility policies. The facility’s occupancy rate is 90% — well above the Wisconsin average of 70% — reflecting consistent local demand in a rural setting with limited nearby options. About 59% of new admissions arrive on Medicare for short-term rehabilitation, and the facility’s Medicaid acceptance positions it as a long-term option for Trempealeau County residents who need skilled nursing care close to home. However, families considering placement should review the facility’s recent findings and inspection history.
