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.
This home is ranked 17th out of 44 homes in Nevada. 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.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | 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.
| 27m per day | ▼ 58% State avg: 1h 4m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
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.
| 35m per day | ▼ 36% State avg: 55m per day · National avg: 52m 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 12m per day | ▼ 7% State avg: 2h 22m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
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 19m per day | ▼ 40% State avg: 3h 51m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Weekend RN
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.
| 18m per day | ▼ 65% State avg: 51m per day · National avg: 28m per day |

An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on May 7, 2025 identified multiple deficiencies including failure to obtain informed consent for psychotropic medications, inadequate monitoring of these medications and their side effects, untimely reporting of an abuse incident, incomplete care plans, and issues with neurological checks and oxygen saturation monitoring. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of similar issues related to medication management, care planning, abuse reporting, and staff compliance with policies, along with recurring concerns about infection control and resident safety. Complaint investigations included some substantiated cases, notably involving abuse reporting and resident safety, while others were unsubstantiated. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license suspensions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history reflects ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, with recent inspections continuing to identify deficiencies similar to those noted previously.
