Overview of Odd Fellows Home of Massachusetts
Odd Fellows Home of Massachusetts operates a 100-bed skilled nursing facility on Randolph Road in Worcester. Run by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Grand Lodge, a nonprofit group with over a century of local history, the building houses seniors needing short-term recovery or ongoing clinical care. The surrounding neighborhood is highly walkable, making it easy for visiting relatives to drop by and handle daily errands on foot.
The building runs at a high occupancy rate, providing an average of four hours and seven minutes of direct nursing care per resident each day. Licensed administrators and specialized nurses manage the floor routines around the clock, dividing duties between physical therapists, registered nurses, and dietary cooks. Short-term therapy programs focus on post-operative care and safe discharge planning after major surgeries or fractures, while the long-term wings provide nutrient-dense meals, cable TV, building-wide Wi-Fi, and laundry services.
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health oversees local nursing properties by conducting regular physical site inspections to confirm compliance with medical and environmental standards.
Families can call the administrative staff at (508) 853-6687 to check on open room setups or to walk through the onboarding steps. The billing office can explain how they coordinate monthly fees with Medicare, state Medicaid, or out-of-pocket payments, and they can schedule an in-person tour of the therapy rooms and shared lounges.
Quality ratings
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.

Standout metric
LPN / LVN is +4% 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.
| 33m per day | ▼ 17% State avg: 39m 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 | ▲ 4% State avg: 57m 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 8m per day | ▼ 6% State avg: 2h 16m 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.
| 3h 16m per day | ▼ 6% State avg: 3h 29m 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.
| 1m per day | ▼ 77% 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.
