This home is ranked 49th out of 129 homes in Nebraska.| 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.
| 28m per day | ▼ 35% 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.
| 41m per day | ▼ 5% 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.
| 3h 37m per day | ▲ 31% 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 10m per day | ▼ 13% State avg: 3h 37m per day · National avg: 3h 26m 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.
| 21m per day | ▼ 28% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day |

In Nebraska, the Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Public Health conducts regular inspections to ensure nursing and assisted living facilities meet state and federal standards.
Inspections are mandatory, regular evaluations conducted by state health departments or regulatory agencies. They ensure the community provides safe, compliant care, covering areas like resident health, staff and management.
Deficiencies indicate regulatory issues. A higher number implies the facility had several areas requiring improvement.
Nebraska average: 52 deficiencies
The most recent inspection-related documents for Highland Park Care Center, dated March 10, 2025, showed no deficiencies and confirmed compliance with licensure renewal requirements. Earlier inspections presented a mixed pattern, with multiple deficiencies noted primarily in resident care, documentation, medication management, and safety practices, especially in 2017 and 2018. Complaint investigations from recent years were unsubstantiated, with no enforcement actions, fines, or license suspensions listed in the available reports. Prior enforcement included probation periods in 2011 and 2018 related to fall and pressure sore prevention, but more recent inspections indicate corrective actions were taken. The facility’s inspection history suggests improvement over time, with no deficiencies reported in the most recent renewal certifications.
