The Cedars at Broadwell sits at 800 Stoeger Dr in Grand Island, NE, and runs as a for-profit nursing home linked with Avid Healthcare Group, focusing on both long-term and short-term skilled nursing care for older adults and taking in about 49 residents each day with a total of 67 certified beds, offering private and semi-private rooms with bedside tables, lamps, tray tables, and storage for comfort. The facility operates 24 hours a day, every day, and offers senior living options like assisted living, nursing and rehab services, and a memory care unit for folks dealing with dementia or memory issues, so residents can get physical, occupational, and speech therapy on-site, plus case management and social services. Staff can help with medication management and provide transportation for appointments or group outings, and there are activities, special diet accommodations, nutritional support, and comfort amenities like a residents lounge and an outdoor courtyard with a gazebo. They do offer an emergency call system in the rooms for safety.
The Cedars at Broadwell has documented some serious deficiencies in recent inspection reports, including not always providing the care needed to prevent or treat pressure ulcers and problems with its infection prevention and control program, which have contributed to infection-related deficiencies. It's received 15 substantiated complaints about care or safety and been fined $92,274 by CMS over quality and safety violations. Nurse turnover stands high at 85.2%, compared to the state average of 51.6%, and nurse hours per resident per day are lower than average at about 3.23 (while the state average sits at 4.0), with low RN coverage too, especially on weekends. Its ratings for staffing, quality measures, and health inspections are all at 1.0 star, and the total weighted health survey score is 78.5. The place keeps a login requirement for some features and claims a focus on growing wellness programs rooted in compassion, but the inspection history and staffing numbers are things families may want to look at closely when considering care here.
