Overview of Westfield Quality Care of Aurora

Westfield Quality Care of Aurora is a 64-bed skilled nursing facility in Aurora, Nebraska, providing long-term care, memory care, skilled nursing, respite care, hospice care, and short-term rehabilitation to residents in Hamilton County. The facility is privately owned by Kauffman Investments LLC.

CMS assigns the facility a 1-star overall rating, with all four sub-ratings below Nebraska averages. The Health Inspection score is 63.8% below the state average — the primary driver of the overall rating. Total nursing staffing averages 4 hours and 22 minutes per resident per day, nearly matching Nebraska’s average of 4 hours and 20 minutes, though staffing and quality measure scores each rank in the bottom third statewide.

The inspection record spans over a decade of recurring deficiencies. Over the 12-year reporting window, the facility averaged 10.3 deficiencies per year — 145% above Nebraska’s average of 4.2. Major annual surveys in 2016, 2018, and 2019 each produced 16 to 24 citations involving pressure ulcer prevention, infection control, care planning, medication administration, and fire safety. Enforcement actions include a 90-day probation in 2019 for failure to prevent pressure sores and a 180-day probation issued in April 2024 — accompanied by a prohibition on new admissions — after inspectors found glucometers were not being calibrated before use.

On-site services include a secured memory care unit, physical and speech therapy, and in-house physician visits. The facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, and its current occupancy rate is 89% — roughly 19 points above the Nebraska average.

Westfield Quality Care of Aurora is best suited for long-term and memory care residents in Aurora and Hamilton County, with secured dementia programming and a residential care model that has remained continuously licensed. Families should carefully review the facility’s long-term inspection history and prior enforcement actions before making a placement decision.
