CMS (the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) is the federal agency that rates nursing home quality. Its Overall Rating runs from 1 to 5 stars, combining health inspections, staffing, and quality measures, with inspections weighted most heavily.
La Estancia Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a 192-bed, single-story facility in Phoenix’s Ahwatukee Foothills Village neighborhood, 18 years into operation at 15810 S 42nd St. The campus covers nursing home care, assisted living, independent living, and memory care. The Walk Score is 81, which puts the immediate area in genuinely walkable territory for a Phoenix location. The nearest hospital, HonorHealth Tempe Medical Center, is 8.09 miles out.
Occupancy sits at 55.9%, with residents staying an average of 125 days. Total nursing hours run 3 hours and 10 minutes per resident per day. Nurse aides account for 1 hour and 39 minutes; LPNs contribute 1 hour and 3 minutes; registered nurses come in at 12 minutes. That RN figure is the number to pay attention to. An active resident council meets regularly. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.
Arizona’s Department of Health Services, Bureau of Long Term Care Licensing inspects this facility, and inspection themes have included infection prevention and control, care planning and documentation, and fall and injury prevention.
For families in the south Phoenix and Ahwatukee area looking at a large-footprint facility with full care-level coverage and complete payment flexibility, La Estancia fits that profile.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
This home is ranked 60th out of 67 homes in Arizona for nurse hours. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| 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.
| 12m per day | ▼ 71% 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.
| 1h 3m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 1h 3m 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 39m per day | ▼ 30% State avg: 2h 22m per day · National avg: 2h 21m 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 53m per day | ▼ 20% State avg: 3h 38m 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.
| 5m per day | ▼ 20% State avg: 6m 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.
| 18m per day | ▼ 43% State avg: 31m per day · National avg: 29m per day |
Average number of days residents stay at this facility, based on CMS cost report data. Shorter stays often reflect post-acute or rehab care; longer stays reflect long-term care.
