Staffing hours breakdown
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.
| Staff type | Hours / day | 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.
| 53m per day | ▲ 39% State avg: 38m per day · National avg: 41m 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 38m per day | ▲ 6% State avg: 2h 29m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
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 41m per day | ▲ 5% State avg: 3h 31m 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.
| 5m per day | ▲ 150% State avg: 2m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
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.
| 35m per day | ▲ 59% State avg: 22m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Inspection Report Summary for Vineyard Court Nursing Center
The most recent inspection on December 23, 2025, found no deficiencies during multiple complaint investigations covering accidents, abuse, neglect, resident rights, nursing service, and quality of care. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to resident dignity and respect, medication management, pain management, and supervision of residents, including failure to provide timely pain medications, inadequate supervision during smoking breaks, and issues with infection control and care planning. The facility received citations for failure to notify staff and authorities promptly when a resident left the facility unsupervised, and there was an Immediate Jeopardy finding in 2023 related to pain management that was later resolved. Most complaint investigations in recent years were unsubstantiated, and enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The trend indicates improvement over time, with the facility correcting prior deficiencies and achieving compliance by the most recent inspections.
