Overview of Union Post Acute

Union Post Acute is a nursing home in Union, South Carolina, providing 24-hour skilled nursing care, short-term rehabilitation, and long-term support services. The community is owned by Union Community Healthcare LLC and administered by Christopher Patrie with an 88-bed capacity.

Services include post-acute rehabilitation, short-term recovery programming, licensed nursing support, certified nursing assistants, and continuous 24-hour staffing coverage. Focusing on post-hospital recovery and rehabilitation services, the community is a potential option for those transitioning from acute medical care who require continued skilled nursing oversight and therapy support.

Located in Union County in the Upstate South Carolina region, the community serves a smaller local market where skilled nursing and rehabilitation options may be more limited than in larger metropolitan areas. Its mid-sized 88-bed capacity also provides a balance between personalized attention and the clinical resources needed to support rehabilitation and long-term nursing care programs.

Union Post Acute is well-suited for older adults in Union County and surrounding Upstate communities who require skilled nursing services, post-acute rehabilitation, or long-term care following hospitalization or illness.

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.

Staffing hours breakdown

Info 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.

Hours per resident per day — compared to state averages

Total nursing care / resident Info 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.

Rank #103 / 121Nurse hours — State benchmarkedThis home is ranked 103rd out of 121 homes in South Carolina. Shows adjusted nurse hours per resident per day benchmarked to the South Carolina average, with a ranking across 121 South Carolina 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 South Carolina 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. 24m 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. 47m 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 0m 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. 2h 52m 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. 5m 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. 16m per day
