Levels of Care

Resident room rates are based on the amount of care the resident is receiving. We use the MDS (minimum data set) state assessment tool for the basis of determining the amount of care the resident is receiving. Assessments are done upon admission, when there is a significant change in the resident’s health and on a quarterly basis.

Our current daily room rates effective February 1, 2008 are as follows:

Sheltered care	$98
Nursing Level 1	$131
Nursing Level 2	$151
Nursing Level 3	$166
Nursing Level 4	$176
