Overview of Life Care Center of Mcminnville

Life Care Center of Mcminnville is a 110-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility at 1309 NE 27th Street in McMinnville, Oregon. Operated by private company Life Care Centers of America, the facility offers skilled nursing, rehabilitation, memory care, Alzheimer’s and dementia care, and assisted living, accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

CMS scores the facility 5 stars, and U.S. News & World Report named it a Best Nursing Home for 2026. The compliance record runs counter to those signals: across 10 complaint-driven inspections since 2022, the facility averaged 16 deficiencies per year, 139 percent above Oregon average of 6.7, with multiple deficiencies left uncorrected after revisits. A January 2024 investigation found the facility failed to report and investigate sexual abuse allegations; a July 2025 inspection substantiated misappropriation of resident debit and credit cards by staff. Nurse hours run 4h 28m per resident per day, 14 percent below Oregon average and placing the facility 80th of 92 Oregon SNFs. Occupancy stands at 39 percent, well below state average of 65.7 percent, indicating broad current availability.

Amenities feature a fine dining program, beauty salon and barber shop, and a certified dietitian.

Located in Yamhill County, the community’s dementia care programming and rehabilitation capacity is best for residents needing memory care or post-acute skilled nursing.

Standout metric Physical Therapist is +117% above state avg

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.	36m per day	▼ 13% State avg: 41m 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	▲ 11% State avg: 54m 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 59m per day	▼ 11% State avg: 3h 22m per day · National avg: 2h 20m 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.	4h 3m per day	▼ 8% State avg: 4h 23m 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.	11m per day	▲ 117% State avg: 5m 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.	23m per day	▼ 10% State avg: 26m per day · National avg: 28m per day
