Overview of Little Sisters of the Poor

In Louisville’s Audubon neighborhood, Little Sisters of the Poor operates as a 50-bed Catholic nonprofit nursing facility licensed in April 2025. The Medicaid-focused community (97% of census) serves 32 residents with an average stay of six months. Administrator Linda Deardeuff leads a mission-oriented operation. The location ranks very walkable (Walk Score 74, ranked 36th statewide) and sits 2.7 miles from downtown Louisville.

Residents access memory care, respite services, volunteer programming, pastoral care, and a complimentary Senior Day Center.

Staffing intensity defines the operation. Little Sisters invests 97.7% of revenue into payroll, the second-highest proportion in Kentucky, fielding 125 personnel (56 employees, 69 contractors) for 32 residents. The staff-to-resident ratio of 3.91:1 exceeds the state average by 127%. Total nursing hours clock in at 6h 31m daily per resident, ranking 5th statewide and 89% above Kentucky’s median.

The CMS staffing rating reflects this commitment at 4 stars; the overall rating lands at 3 stars.

Inspection data reveals rapid-scale challenges. January’s renewal survey found zero deficiencies when the facility held 8 residents. Four months later, following expansion to 32 residents, a May 2025 re-inspection identified four moderate-severity deficiencies: failed discharge notifications (1 of 1 resident sampled), expired medications in 3 of 6 medication carts, lapsed expiration-date checks before administration, and gaps in infection prevention protocols (hand hygiene, food service).

No critical or serious citations exist in the record. Zero fines, payment denials, or substantiated complaints appear over three years.

Quality outcomes split markedly. Walking ability decline (33.5%) and functional decline (28.8) run 71 and 52% worse than state benchmarks, respectively; antipsychotic use runs 27% higher. Pressure ulcers (3.0%, 48% better), weight loss (3.4%, 50% better), and depressive symptoms (9.4%, 34% better) outperform state averages. Vaccine coverage, influenza 100%, pneumococcal 93%, aligns with state norms.

The facility is brand-new, mission-driven, and heavily staffed.

The May deficiencies coincided with rapid census growth from 8 to 32 residents in four months, suggesting operational scaling challenges in medication management and infection control rather than baseline capacity issues.

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.	1h 34m per day	▲ 105% State avg: 46m 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.	35m per day	▼ 28% State avg: 48m 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.	4h 6m per day	▲ 70% State avg: 2h 24m 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.	5h 15m per day	▲ 48% State avg: 3h 32m per day · National avg: 3h 27m 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.	9m per day	▲ 139% State avg: 4m 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.	56m per day	▲ 83% State avg: 31m per day · National avg: 29m per day
