The Oaks at Byron Center is a 41-bed skilled nursing facility that operates alongside independent living, assisted living, and memory care services. The building functions with a clear emphasis on short-term recovery, generating an average length of stay of 48 days. Admissions lean heavily toward private-pay individuals, who account for 72% of the resident census, while local utilization stands at a 51% occupancy rate. Business logs highlight a steady financial turnaround, with the operation posting a $410.5 thousand profit and a 3.1% margin while channeling 52.2% of its revenue into payroll to support on-site spaces like a movie theater, fitness center, and private dining rooms.
Files from state health departments show excellent clinical outcome metrics and a low historical citation count. Registered nurse care averages 1 hour and 1 minute per resident daily, running 33% ahead of the Michigan baseline, while total combined nursing hours settle at 3 hours and 41 minutes. This clinical focus aligns with strong short-term recovery tracking, noting zero reported major injury falls and a community discharge success rate that beats the state norm by 53%. Permanent resident charts reveal similarly high marks, documenting zero cases of urinary tract infections alongside above-average scores for physical mobility preservation.
On the regulatory side, the property compiled seven total deficiencies since 2020, tracking 65% better than the state average, with zero federal financial penalties on record. Its most recent inspection in May 2025 flagged six minor administrative and physical plant issues involving food labeling, dishwasher logs, linen storage, unlocked chemical cabinets, and employee tuberculosis screening paperwork.
Interested individuals researching regional post-acute physical therapy or multi-level senior living options can consult these public health registries to verify the facility’s baseline. Since the state paperwork documents open building capacity, heavy daily registered nurse oversight, and top-tier physical rehabilitation metrics alongside a low historical citation count, the data points to a highly organized recovery environment.
In Michigan, the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA) conducts unannounced inspections and investigations to ensure long-term care facilities comply with state health codes.
