Selmer Post Acute is a 126-bed nursing home in Selmer, Tennessee, offering skilled nursing, long-term care, and rehabilitation. Managed by Selmer SNF Healthcare, LLC, and partnered with the PACS Group in McNairy County since July 1992. Welcoming Medicare beneficiaries, it also offers 24-hour licensed nursing coverage alongside physical, occupational, respiratory, and speech therapies within a dedicated therapy space. Highlighting its exceptional care standards, CMS has awarded the community its top five-star overall rating.
A total of 11 deficiencies were identified across three standard reviews, with no financial penalties or payment freezes issued over the last three years. The most recent routine review from July 23, 2025, identified 3 minor deficiencies, which involved care plan compliance, accidental hazard prevention, and urinary tract infection protocols. An earlier March 2022 review also noted 6 deficiencies, which involved resident autonomy in treatment and transfer notices, daily living support, nutritional oversight, pharmaceutical storage, and meal planning. However, no severe safety threats were found, though families may want to note that the three-year and four-month gap between the 2022 and 2025 reviews lasted longer than the customary 9-to-15-month schedule.
Daily direct nursing care averages 3.78 hours per individual, staying within a close margin to the Tennessee benchmark of 3.9 hours. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) availability is a particular asset, tracking 22% higher than the state baseline at 1 hour and 19 minutes daily, while Registered Nurse and Certified Nursing Assistant hours trail slightly behind state trends. Notably, the employee turnover rate is low at 27.5%, staying far below the Tennessee average of 48.7% and indicating reliable workforce stability.
Clinical results represent a major benefit for residents. Long-term individuals experience 57% fewer hospital transfers per 1,000 resident days and 46% fewer emergency room visits than the state average. For short-term rehabilitation guests, the readmission rate back to a hospital stands at 14.3%, outperforming state averages by 36%, while emergency visit frequencies are 63% better than state benchmarks at 4.2%. Major injury-causing falls were non-existent, compared to a state average of 0.8%. Furthermore, the rate of successful discharges back home or into the neighborhood hits 58.7%, exceeding the Tennessee average by 16%, though independent care abilities at discharge trend slightly below the state average.
Selmer Post Acute’s environment is an excellent match for older adults looking for short-term recovery or extended nursing assistance within a tight-knit regional setting, especially for those who value strong hospital prevention records, low staff turnover, and top-tier federal quality scores.
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.
| 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.
| 31m per day | ▼ 16% State avg: 37m 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 19m per day | ▲ 22% State avg: 1h 5m 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.
| 1h 57m per day | ▼ 9% State avg: 2h 9m 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 13m per day | ▼ 4% State avg: 3h 21m per day · National avg: 3h 26m 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 | ▼ 4% State avg: 24m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
