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 49th out of 66 homes in Utah. 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.
| 54m per day | ▼ 24% State avg: 1h 11m 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.
| 26m per day | ▼ 16% State avg: 31m 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 31m per day | ▲ 6% State avg: 2h 22m 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 11m per day | ▼ 9% 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.
| 8m per day | ▲ 14% State avg: 7m 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.
| 32m per day | ▼ 36% State avg: 50m per day · National avg: 28m per day |

An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on August 22, 2024, identified deficiencies related to fire safety and emergency preparedness, including issues with sprinkler system maintenance, smoke barrier integrity, and the emergency preparedness plan. Earlier inspections were not provided for comparison, so it is unclear whether these issues represent a new or ongoing pattern. Inspectors cited problems mainly in maintaining fire protection systems and ensuring comprehensive emergency planning. No complaint investigations or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. There is no clear trend indicated due to the lack of prior inspection data.
