About Cordova Community Med Ltc

Cordova Community Med Ltc is a Medicare- and Medicaid-certified skilled nursing facility in Cordova, Alaska, operating under CMS Certification Number (CCN) 025028. 10-bed facility. Government - City/County. Independent (not part of a multi-facility chain). The facility is required to comply with the Requirements for Long-Term Care Facilities at 42 CFR Part 483.

Cordova Community Med Ltc has held its Medicare/Medicaid certification for approximately 32 years (certification date on file: 1994-03-22). Long-tenured facilities (15+ years) often have established F-tag remediation playbooks and a deeper standard-survey trail; newly-certified facilities (under 3 years) are subject to a different initial survey cadence under 42 CFR 488.308.

Local market context (Chugach County): Cordova Community Med Ltc shares Chugach County with 1 other Medicare-certified SNF in our Alaska sample. Two-facility counties typically see direct competitive comparison on Care Compare ratings during discharge-planner decisions.

CMS Five-Star Quality Ratings

CMS publishes Five-Star ratings for nursing homes monthly, drawn from the most recent three years of standard surveys, complaint surveys, and Minimum Data Set (MDS) submissions.

Long-Stay vs Short-Stay Quality Measures

Long-Stay Quality Measure rating: ★★★★★ (5 of 5). Long-stay measures cover residents in the facility 100+ days and include indicators like residents experiencing one or more falls with major injury, residents whose ability to move independently worsened, and residents with a urinary tract infection.

Differentiating long-stay from short-stay QMs matters for placement decisions — a facility with strong short-stay QMs may still underperform on long-stay metrics, and vice versa.

Compliance Red Flags

Cordova Community Med Ltc has none of the four CMS-published red-flag indicators active at the most recent publish: not on the Special Focus Facility list, no Abuse Icon on Care Compare, no overdue inspection flag, and no recent change-of-ownership flag. Absence of these flags does not mean the facility is deficiency-free — see the survey history below.

Survey History and Deficiencies

Recent health deficiencies cited at last standard survey: 7. National average for facilities of this size is approximately 8 deficiencies per cycle. Cordova Community Med Ltc has no CMS fines in its most recent reporting cycle. Last documented standard health survey: 2026-03-16. CMS conducts standard surveys at most every 15 months for SNFs, with substandard-quality findings triggering more frequent revisits.

Infection Control and Deficiency Weighting

CMS health survey weighted score: 50. The weighted score multiplies deficiency severity (A-L) by scope (isolated, pattern, widespread); higher weighted scores translate directly into the Health Inspection star rating tier breakpoints CMS publishes monthly.

Staffing Detail

Cordova Community Med Ltc already meets the cadre-specific minimums scheduled to take effect on the May 2029 timeline under 89 FR 40876 (RN 4.006 HPRD vs the 0.55 floor; nurse-aide 5.217 HPRD vs the 2.45 floor). The constraint going forward is sustaining these levels under turnover pressure.

Total nurse staffing: 9.409 hours per resident day (HPRD), which is 5.93 hours above the 3.48 total HPRD floor that the CMS Minimum Staffing Standards rule (89 FR 40876, May 2024) phases in for rural-facility facilities by May 2029.

Staffing mix: RN 4.006 HPRD, LPN 0.186 HPRD, CNA 5.217 HPRD. The same CMS final rule also phases in cadre-specific minimums of 0.55 RN HPRD and 2.45 nurse aide HPRD on the 2029 timeline; RN-specific shortfalls have historically been the most common single-facility staffing deficiency at standard surveys.

Weekend RN staffing: 2.918 HPRD. Weekend RN coverage is a separately reported CMS measure; facilities with low weekend RN HPRD frequently see resident-acuity-driven adverse events spike on the weekend shift.

Total nurse staff turnover: 12.5% annualized — low.

RN-specific turnover: 0% annualized. RN turnover above 50% is the single strongest correlate with QM rating decline in CMS's own internal analyses.

Chain Context and Facility Type

Cordova Community Med Ltc is independently operated (not part of a multi-facility chain). Independent SNFs typically rely on internal compliance staff or contracted consultants rather than corporate-level survey-prep teams; this affects both how quickly Plans of Correction are produced and how F-tag remediation is documented across multiple shifts.

Provider type designation: Medicare And Medicaid.

The facility is classified by CMS as rural (outside metropolitan statistical areas). Rural SNFs face different challenges — referral pipeline depth, RN availability, ambulance distance for transfers — and CMS applies certain modifiers to the staffing minimums under hardship exemption pathways for rural facilities.

How Cordova Community Med Ltc Compares to Peers in Alaska

Peer comparisons use a same-state cohort of 20 Medicare-certified SNFs, pulled live from CMS Provider Data. The cohort excludes terminated and surrendered certifications.
