Overview of Serenity Spring Senior Living at Northwood

Serenity Spring Senior Living at Northwood is a 155-bed skilled nursing and residential care community providing skilled nursing, memory care, rehabilitation, and respite care in Jasper, Dubois County, Indiana. Non-profit and legally operated by Greene County General Hospital, the community welcomes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

The inspection record across all four CMS sub-ratings runs below Indiana’s average, producing a 1-star overall rating. Over three years on file, the facility averaged 26 deficiencies annually, 519 percent above the 4.2 state average, with no immediate jeopardy findings, fines, or enforcement actions. The May 2024 recertification was the most significant survey in the window, citing 23 deficiencies including use of physical restraints without physician orders or consent, an unreported abuse allegation involving a CNA forcibly removing a resident’s fingers from a mechanical lift, widespread medication management failures, inadequate dementia-specific training, and an unsafe physical environment. The concurrent June 2024 life safety survey found 16 fire and emergency preparedness deficiencies including obstructed egress routes, sprinkler issues, and oxygen storage hazards near combustibles, all corrected on revisit. The February 2023 annual survey documented a resident who fell nine times during the review period, inadequate fall supervision, respiratory care failures, and the absence of a required dementia unit director. A December 2023 complaint investigation substantiated delayed reporting of an abuse allegation to the state agency. The 1-star staffing sub-rating, reflecting case-mix adjusted hours 60.8 percent below Indiana’s average, and Quality Measures similarly 50.6 percent below state benchmark, compound the inspection picture. Occupancy at 55 percent runs well below Indiana’s 68.1 percent average, with the trend declining.

With current availability reflecting below-average occupancy, the facility is geared toward residents in Dubois County who require long-term skilled nursing or memory care.

Quality ratings

Measured by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)

Overall rating Info 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.
Health Inspection Info 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.
Staffing Info 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.
Quality Measures Info 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.

4 of 6 metrics below state avg

Standout metric Physical Therapist is +12% above state avg
Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info 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. 23m per day ▼ 43% State avg: 40m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info 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. 51m per day ▲ 10% State avg: 46m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info 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 10m per day ▼ 5% State avg: 2h 16m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Info 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 4m per day ▼ 5% State avg: 3h 14m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day
Physical Therapist Info 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 ▲ 12% State avg: 4m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN Info 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. 21m per day ▼ 24% State avg: 27m per day · National avg: 28m per day
