Overview of Sunshine Terrace Skilled Nursing

Providing services since 1994, Sunshine Terrace Skilled Nursing handles long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, and hospice support within a 172-bed building. The nonprofit facility is managed by Milford Memorial Hospital and operates a certified nurse aide training program alongside an active resident council. The community serves a population consisting of 63% private-pay admissions, 19% Medicare, and 18% Medicaid, with an average resident stay of 169 days. The physical site is located in a downtown area carrying a Walk Score of 85, though current financial files show a low 29.6% occupancy rate alongside substantial operating losses.

State health evaluations from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) document recent regulatory hurdles, highlighted by a February 2024 review that flagged 12 moderate deficiencies. The final inspection report cited systemic gaps across administrative protocols, including delayed abuse reporting, food safety problems affecting the main kitchen, and physical plant safety items like inadequate emergency lighting and non-compliant fire suppression.

Daily care times are solid, averaging 4 hours and 24 minutes per resident to rank 12th statewide, with weekend nursing hours tracking 40% above the Utah baseline. Clinical data shows mixed outcomes; long-stay residents experience low depression rates and steady physical mobility, but short-stay rehab metrics reveal low vaccination updates and a hospital readmission rate that runs 45% worse than the state average.

Interested individuals weighing regional long-term care choices can look over these multi-year public health dossiers to analyze the operator’s tracking patterns. Since the official databases confirm a pattern of building safety and administrative paperwork marks alongside low occupancy and weak short-term recovery outcomes, cross-referencing current correction plans with the director is an essential precaution.

Standout metric Weekend RN is +37% above state avg

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.	1h 17m per day	▲ 8% 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.	15m per day	▼ 51% 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 35m per day	▲ 9% 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 46m per day	▲ 7% 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.	0m per day	▼ 99% 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.	1h 8m per day	▲ 37% State avg: 50m per day · National avg: 28m per day
