Overview of Stone County Nursing & Rehabilitation

Stone County Nursing & Rehabilitation is a privately owned, 59-bed skilled nursing facility that focuses on short-term rehabilitation, skilled nursing care, and specialized memory support. The property operates with an average resident stay of 76 days, serving an intake population heavily balanced between private-pay sources (52%) and Medicare (47%). Local utilization remains stable with 50 active residents, representing a 78% occupancy rate. To sustain its 24-hour clinical coverage and daily therapy offerings, business logs show that the operator devotes 59% of overall revenue to payroll, relying on external contract labor for 58% of its total operational hours.

A look at recent state health department databases reveals substantial front-line personnel depth and high marks for routine compliance, though permanent resident quality tracking shows some clinical gaps. Direct nursing coverage averages 5 hours and 21 minutes per resident daily to run 24% ahead of the Mississippi state average, ranking the facility 22nd highest out of 110 homes statewide. Routine oversight checks show strong regulatory compliance, with recent inspection performance tracking 41% better than state benchmarks.

Clinical profiles reveal mixed outcomes across different resident groups; short-term rehab charts display excellent emotional well-being metrics with zero reported depressive symptoms and standard fall-prevention rates, while long-stay resident files log elevated rates for pressure ulcers, urinary tract infections, and the use of antipsychotic medications.

Families researching regional post-acute rehabilitation programs or dedicated memory care options can examine these public health tracking data to review the property’s baseline. Since the official records show above-average daily nursing hours, strong regulatory compliance scores, and excellent short-term emotional metrics alongside chronic care tracking challenges, the documentation details a resource-heavy facility well-aligned for brief physical recovery needs.

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.

Rank #21 / 116Nurse hours — State benchmarkedThis home is ranked 21st out of 116 homes in Mississippi for Nurse Hours. Shows adjusted nurse hours per resident per day benchmarked to the Mississippi average, with a ranking across 116 Mississippi facilities. More hours mean more direct care. The national average is about 3.5 hrs; below 3.0 is a red flag.Rankings are based only on facilities in Mississippi that report data for that category.

vs 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. 48m 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. 1h 26m 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 51m 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. 4h 22m 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. 6m 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. 29m per day
