CMS (the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) is the federal agency that rates nursing home quality. Its Overall Rating runs from 1 to 5 stars, combining health inspections, staffing, and quality measures, with inspections weighted most heavily.
Palmetto Subacute Care Center is at 7600 SW 8th St in Miami, on a stretch of SW 8th that scores an 84 for walkability; most errands reachable on foot, which is a meaningful logistical fact for families managing regular visits. The name says what this place is: subacute, not residential. The average length of stay is 112 days, and the clinical program roster confirms a facility built to handle medically complex patients who aren’t going home quickly.
The scope here is unusually broad. Daily physical, occupational, and speech therapy are standard; what distinguishes Palmetto is the depth beyond that: respiratory care, IV therapy, wound care, diabetic management, pain management, bariatric services, complex medical care, and subacute post-operative care. The facility also carries Alzheimer’s and memory care, an ICF/MRDD unit, hospice and palliative care, restorative care, and outpatient therapy, with on-site dental, podiatry, and optometry services rounding out the clinical picture.
Admissions are available 24/7. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.
Nursing coverage totals 3 hours and 28 minutes per resident per day; 1 hour and 23 minutes of RN time, 2 hours and 18 minutes of nurse aide coverage, and 13 minutes of LPN/LVN time. Meals are prepared daily by an in-house chef working alongside a staff dietitian. For a family in Miami facing a complex post-hospital discharge with clinical needs that go beyond standard rehabilitation, Palmetto’s program breadth and all-payer acceptance make it one of the more substantive options the market offers at this acuity level.
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 216th out of 253 homes in Florida 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.
| 1h 23m per day | ▲ 88% State avg: 44m 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.
| 13m per day | ▼ 73% State avg: 47m 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 18m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 2h 20m 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.
| 3h 29m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 3h 31m 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.
| 4m per day | ▼ 25% 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.
| 1h 8m per day | ▲ 114% State avg: 32m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

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."
