vs New Mexico avg

| 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.
| 32m per day | ▼ 14% State avg: 37m per day · National avg: 41m 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 53m per day | ▼ 16% State avg: 2h 14m 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.
| 2h 50m per day | ▼ 9% State avg: 3h 7m 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.
| 1m per day | ▼ 80% State avg: 5m 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.
| 21m per day | ▼ 25% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Inspection Report Summary for Ladera Center
The most recent inspection on May 27, 2025, identified deficiencies related to resident grievance investigations, assistance with activities of daily living, pain management, physician documentation, staffing levels, and meal service timing. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues including inadequate staffing, failure to prevent resident abuse, medication errors, poor wound care, and dietary and infection control problems. Complaint investigations substantiated concerns about improper use of lifts causing resident injury, failure to assess and notify providers of chest pain leading to a resident’s death, and wound care deficiencies posing immediate jeopardy. Enforcement actions such as immediate jeopardy findings were noted in prior reports, but fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s deficiencies have persisted over time with no clear pattern of sustained improvement.
