South Valley Post Acute Rehabilitation is a 106-bed skilled nursing facility in Denver, Colorado, operated by Avalanche Healthcare, Inc. The facility serves residents requiring short-term rehabilitation, memory care, respite care, and long-term care, and accepts both Medicare and Medicaid.
Staffing levels are below the Colorado average in most categories: RN hours average 31 minutes per resident per day, compared with the state average of 50 minutes, and CNA hours average 2 hours 4 minutes, compared with the state average of 2 hours 12 minutes. Weekend nursing coverage averages 2 hours and 59 minutes per day, below Colorado’s average of 3 hours and 16 minutes per day. Quality measure performance tells a different story. Long-stay outcomes are rated significantly above the Colorado average, and short-stay outcomes are rated above average, suggesting that care delivery holds up despite lower staffing hours.
The facility offers 24-hour staffing and rehabilitation services. In-House Therapy and the Stay Active program are the on-site programming tracks.
South Valley Post Acute Rehabilitation fits residents seeking post-acute rehabilitation or long-term skilled nursing care in Denver, with particular orientation toward those whose payer mix includes Medicare or Medicaid and who prioritize quality-of-care outcomes over staffing hours per day.
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 | ▼ 38% State avg: 50m 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.
| 42m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 41m 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 4m per day | ▼ 6% State avg: 2h 12m 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.
| 2h 59m per day | ▼ 9% State avg: 3h 16m 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.
| 5m per day | ■ Avg 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.
| 30m per day | ▼ 17% State avg: 36m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
