Overview of Smp Health – Ave Maria
SMP Health – Ave Maria is a 58-bed skilled nursing facility in Jamestown, North Dakota, offering short-term rehabilitation and transitional care, as well as traditional skilled nursing, long-term care, memory care, spiritual care, and palliative services. The facility is operated by the Sisters of Mary of the Presentation, a nonprofit Catholic health care ministry. It accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
The facility holds a 5-star CMS overall rating, with both Health Inspection and staffing scores running above the North Dakota average. Adjusted total nurse staffing averages 6 hours and 9 minutes per resident per day — 24% above the state average of 4 hours and 58 minutes and second-highest among 25 ranked North Dakota SNFs. Quality Measures are rated below the state average, which is worth noting for long-stay residents with complex clinical needs.
Across four inspections between 2022 and 2024, the facility recorded 3.3 deficiencies per year, 15% better than the North Dakota average. A June 2024 complaint investigation was substantiated: a CNA was found to have placed a cloth in a resident’s mouth to silence her and was suspended pending investigation. No fines or Immediate Jeopardy findings appeared in the inspection record.
The facility’s occupancy rate is 95.7%, above the state average of 87.8%, indicating consistent local demand. Confirmed services include 24-hour nursing coverage.
SMP Health – Ave Maria is best suited for residents seeking skilled nursing or post-acute rehabilitation in a nonprofit, mission-driven setting — including those for whom the integration of spiritual care is a priority.
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.

| 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.
| 56m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 56m 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.
| 30m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 30m 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.

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 15m per day | ▲ 13% State avg: 3h 45m 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.
| 3m per day | ▲ 56% State avg: 2m 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.
