HumanGood Idaho operates The Terraces of Boise as a nonprofit, multi-level continuing care retirement community comprising 72 beds across independent living, assisted living, nursing home, and secured memory care settings. Established in 2012 and administered by Severns Judson, the facility holds Idaho license RC-1115 and serves residents ages 62 and older. Located at 5301 East Warm Springs Avenue, 6.3 miles from Boise’s center, the campus operates in a somewhat walkable area (score 34) and maintains 91% occupancy, exceeding state average by substantial margins.
The facility exclusively serves Medicare and private-pay residents; Medicaid is not accepted. The average length of stay in the nursing home segment reaches 56 days.
The facility achieves a 4-star overall CMS rating, 42.9% above Idaho benchmark. Both health inspection (4 stars, +25.0%) and staffing (4 stars, +47.1%) earn strong ratings.
Staffing delivery is particularly robust: total adjusted nursing hours average 5 hours 25 minutes per resident daily (ranked 2nd statewide), with licensed practical nurses providing 1 hour 20 minutes daily; 74% above state average, and registered nurses delivering 1 hour 6 minutes daily, 32% above state norms. Physical therapy averages 9 minutes per resident daily, 50% above state levels.
Staff-to-resident ratio of 3.86:1 substantially exceeds the state average of 1.81:1. Contractors constitute 54.7% of the 139-person workforce.
Quality Measures, however, rate only 2 stars, 48.7% below state average.
Long-stay resident clinical outcomes diverge sharply from staffing metrics. Functional decline scores are 40% worse than state peers. Walking ability deteriorates in 34.5% of long-stay residents, 76% above the state rate. Falls with major injury occur in 6.3% of this population; 127% worse than state norms, and pressure ulcers affect 9.5%, 162% exceeding state benchmarks.
Conversely, weight loss remains at 0.0%, and depressive symptoms of 4.9% improve significantly on state average.
Fire and life safety compliance presents a chronic pattern: eight inspections since 2021 identified 28 total deficiencies, with oxygen cylinder storage violations recurrent across multiple years (2021, 2023, 2025). Other documented issues include incomplete emergency drills, outdated relocation agreements, fire suppression documentation gaps, and blocked electrical panels.
A single $9,000 federal penalty was imposed in December 2023.
Financially, the facility reports $27.0 million in revenue (state’s highest) yet operates with a $669,300 deficit and payroll representing 40% of revenue.
The Terraces of Boise demonstrates exceptional staffing investment alongside deeply problematic long-stay functional decline and persistent compliance deficiencies in fire safety, offset by favorable short-stay rehabilitation outcomes.
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.

This home is ranked 2nd out of 31 homes in Idaho. 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 6m per day | ▲ 32% State avg: 50m 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.
| 1h 20m per day | ▲ 74% State avg: 46m 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 59m per day | ▲ 21% State avg: 2h 28m 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.
| 4h 49m per day | ▲ 39% State avg: 3h 28m 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.
| 9m per day | ▲ 50% 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.
| 32m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 32m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
