United Pioneer Home is a 50-bed nonprofit skilled nursing facility in Luck, Wisconsin, offering skilled nursing, memory care, and respite care to residents across Polk County. The community is administered by Jay Andress and accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. United Pioneer Home holds a 3-star overall CMS rating, in line with the Wisconsin average. Staffing is the standout dimension: nurse staffing averages 5 hours and 33 minutes per resident per day — 31% above the state average of 4 hours 14 minutes — and ranks 14th out of 172 Wisconsin skilled nursing facilities on that measure. Weekend nurse staffing averages 5 hours and 14 minutes per resident per day, 41% above the state benchmark. Health Inspection performance and Quality Measures both trail the Wisconsin average, each pulling the overall rating down from what staffing levels alone would suggest. The facility’s occupancy rate is 64.8%, below the state average of 70%, which typically indicates near-term availability. The average length of stay is 158 days, suggesting a resident mix weighted toward longer-term skilled nursing rather than short-stay rehabilitation. United Pioneer Home fits residents — and families — who prioritize consistent, well-staffed hands-on care in a smaller nonprofit community, particularly for longer-term skilled nursing and memory care placements in the Luck area.
