Located on Parklane Road in Columbia, South Carolina, Nhc Healthcare Parklane is a skilled nursing and rehabilitation home operated by NHC Healthcare/Parklane LLC under owner William Birmingham. Families can choose from Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay to cover both short-term rehabilitation and ongoing nursing care.
The 180-bed community has 91% occupancy, with 164 residents currently living in the facility. Residents stay an average of 112 days because of the home’s clinical focus on short-term rehabilitation and longer-term care stays.
The facility also has a strong rehabilitation focus. It offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy, as well as specialized short-term rehabilitation programs and respite care. These services can support residents recovering from surgery, illness, or a hospital stay, and families who need temporary caregiving support. The community also provides home care and hospice services.
The home’s daily staffing is robust. Residents receive an average of 5 hours and 3 minutes of nursing care each day. Registered nurses, nurse aides, and licensed practical nurses provide care across all shifts. The level of hands-on support helps residents with medical needs and daily activities throughout the day.
Meals are prepared by a chef and reviewed by a dietitian to meet every resident’s nutritional needs. Residents have access to high-speed wireless internet, cable television in every room, housekeeping and laundry services, an on-site beauty and barber shop, daily activities and entertainment, an indoor dining room, and outdoor relaxation areas.
State inspections and surveys reviewed areas such as medication management, clinical documentation, and care delivery practices. The facility has been working on these areas to comply consistently.
Families seeking intensive rehabilitation support, strong nursing staffing, and comprehensive services in the Columbia area should consider Nhc Healthcare Parklane.
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 15th out of 119 homes in South Carolina 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.
| 34m per day | ▼ 9% State avg: 38m 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 13m per day | ▲ 19% 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.
| 3h 9m per day | ▲ 42% State avg: 2h 13m 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.
| 4h 0m per day | ▲ 20% State avg: 3h 20m 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.
| 8m per day | ▲ 59% 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.
| 16m per day | ▼ 34% State avg: 24m 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.

Net patient revenue — what the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts are subtracted from its gross charges (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It covers resident care only; money the home earns from other sources is shown separately as "Other income."
Net patient income: net patient revenue minus the home's total operating expenses. A positive figure means it earns more from resident care than it spends to deliver it; a negative figure means the opposite. It excludes non-operating "other income."

Money the home earns outside of resident care — such as investments, grants, rentals and other non-operating sources (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It is tracked separately from net patient revenue: it is not part of that figure, and it is not included in net patient income.
Staff salaries plus wage-related costs — benefits such as payroll taxes, health insurance and retirement — from the home's own accounting records (CMS cost report, Worksheet A). Contract or agency labor is counted separately, under other operating costs.
