CMS (the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) is the federal agency that rates nursing home quality. Its Overall Rating runs from 1 to 5 stars, combining health inspections, staffing, and quality measures, with inspections weighted most heavily.
At 5890 SW 8th St in Miami’s Flagami neighborhood, The Pointe of North Gables is a 99-bed nursing home and assisted living facility licensed for Medicare and Medicaid, 6.6 miles from downtown. Privately operated, the community benefits from its very walkable setting (walk score 85) with mixed errands and essential services on foot.
The facility operates primarily as a short-stay model: average stay of 89 days, occupancy at 93.4% (ranked 51st of 255 Florida SNFs), significantly above the average of 84.3%. This occupancy level indicates sustained local demand and operational stability.
Current resident census totals 96: 30.2% Medicare, 61.5% Medicaid, 8.3% private pay. Medicare admissions comprise 27% of new entries, typically staying 2–3 months for post-acute rehabilitation. Private-pay admissions account for 66%, with average stays of just 7 days. Medicaid represents 6% of admissions despite comprising 61.5% of the current census, reflecting longer tenure among Medicaid residents (typical 3-year stays).
Nursing hours/resident/day total 3 hours 42 minutes; 8% below Florida’s 4 hours 2 minutes benchmark, positioning the facility 174th among 252 state nursing homes. Staffing comprises 31 registered nurses, 8 licensed practical nurses, 54 certified nursing aides, supplemented by 5 speech pathologists, 3 respiratory technicians, dental services, and mental health workers. Weekend nursing averages 3 hours 26 minutes/day. Contractors account for 6.8% of total staffing.
Overall rating: 2 stars, 37% below average. Health inspection rating: 2 stars, 28.9% below average. Staffing rating: 4 stars, 18.2% above average. Quality measures: 2 stars, 1.4% below average.
Critically, the facility recorded zero federal penalties over the past three years, indicating sustained regulatory compliance.
Functional decline scores 7.2; 42% better than state benchmark, while activities of daily living degradation affects 9.7% of long-stay residents (8% better than state). Falls with major injury occur in 1.3%, 51% better than average.
Conversely, depressive symptoms appear in 20.1% of residents, 500% worse than the 3.3% average. Pressure ulcers in high-risk residents stand at 7.6%, 42% worse than state. Weight loss reaches 8.4% of residents, 40% above baseline. Short-stay residents newly receiving antipsychotic medication jump to 8.7%, 475% above the average of 1.5%.
The facility reports a net profit of $751.5 thousand on $20.3 million gross revenue, with payroll at 34.4% of revenue; well below the typical 49–56% for financially stable Florida nursing homes.
The Pointe of North Gables accommodates short-term and longer-stay residents across multiple payers with above-average staffing ratings, though with behavioral and mood disorder prevalence.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 175th out of 253 homes in Florida for nurse hours. 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.
| 1h 12m per day | ▲ 64% State avg: 44m 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.
| 20m per day | ▼ 58% State avg: 47m 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 | ▲ 10% State avg: 2h 20m 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 39m per day | ▲ 3% State avg: 3h 32m per day · National avg: 3h 27m 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 | ▼ 15% State avg: 6m 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.
| 59m per day | ▲ 83% State avg: 32m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Net patient revenue — what the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts are subtracted from its gross charges (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It covers resident care only; money the home earns from other sources is shown separately as "Other income."
Net patient income: net patient revenue minus the home's total operating expenses. A positive figure means it earns more from resident care than it spends to deliver it; a negative figure means the opposite. It excludes non-operating "other income."
