This home is ranked 16th out of 35 homes in Delaware.| 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.
| 53m per day | ▼ 15% State avg: 1h 2m 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.
| 1h 0m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 1h 1m 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 30m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 2h 28m per day · National avg: 2h 21m 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 35m per day | ▼ 11% State avg: 4h 2m 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.
| 3m per day | ▼ 67% State avg: 9m per day · National avg: 4m 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.
| 41m per day | ▼ 5% State avg: 43m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

In Delaware, the Department of Health and Social Services, Division of Health Care Quality is responsible for the oversight, unannounced inspection, and licensing of all long-term care settings.
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.
Delaware average: 64 deficiencies
The most recent inspection on November 22, 2024, identified deficiencies related to residents’ rights, abuse and neglect, medication administration, care planning, pharmacy services, food safety, and equipment safety. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues including staffing shortages, failure to provide timely emergency care, infection control lapses, and deficiencies in resident care and documentation. Complaint investigations substantiated abuse, neglect, and misappropriation of property, with staff disciplinary actions noted, but no fines or license actions were listed in the available reports. Prior complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated or focused on infection control and staffing concerns. The facility’s deficiencies have persisted over time with no clear trend of improvement.
