Overview of Vermilion Healthcare Center

Facebook

Long-term residents at Vermilion Healthcare Center in Lafayette, Louisiana, benefit from nursing staffing that consistently outpaces state benchmarks.

The facility delivers 4 hours 25 minutes of combined registered nurse, licensed practical nurse, and certified nursing aide time per resident daily; 6% above Louisiana’s state average and solidly above the national red-flag threshold of 3.0 hours. This staffing level places Vermilion at #38 among 182 Louisiana skilled nursing homes. Weekend nursing presence, while lighter than weekday operations, remains at 3 hours 10 minutes per resident; maintained rather than collapsed, a distinction worth noting in facilities serving medically complex residents.

CMS performance data amplifies the staffing picture. Overall ratings run 108.2% above the Louisiana state average, health inspection assessments 81.1% above average, and staffing designations 24.8% higher than peer norms. Quality-of-life measures track at state average. The facility maintains no federal penalties in the past three years.

Occupancy at 78.2% sits above the Louisiana average (71.8%), with capacity available for new admissions. Residents stay exceptionally long; an average of 796 days suggests a population that has settled into permanent or near-permanent residence. Payer patterns underscore this: while admissions split relatively evenly among Medicare (46%), Medicaid (29%), and private pay (26%), discharges skew heavily private pay (51% of exits), reflecting residents completing extended, privately funded stays before departing the community.

The facility specializes in long-term memory care, offering secure Alzheimer’s units alongside general nursing beds. Rehabilitation services, 24-hour nursing, religious services, and daily wellness activities comprise the program.

Transportation is available for residents requiring off-site access.

Dining emphasizes Cajun cuisine.

The Lagniappe Program adds structure for enrolled residents.

Location in Lafayette carries a walkability score of 0/100; a car-dependent setting with limited nearby pedestrian amenities.

Vermilion Healthcare Center serves individuals and families planning for extended, medically supported residence, particularly those with dementia or chronic care needs requiring continuous staffing presence.
