The Terrace At Crystal LLC is a Medicare- and Medicaid-certified skilled nursing facility in Crystal, Minnesota, operating under CMS Certification Number (CCN) 245289. 85-bed facility. For Profit - Individual. 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.
The Terrace At Crystal LLC has held its Medicare/Medicaid certification for approximately 41 years (certification date on file: 1984-11-01). 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 (Hennepin County): The Terrace At Crystal LLC operates in Hennepin County alongside 28 other Medicare-certified SNFs in our Minnesota cohort sample. Multi-facility counties create direct cohort comparison pressure — hospital discharge planners typically run side-by-side Care Compare lookups before placement decisions.
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.
Special Focus Facility status: The Terrace At Crystal LLC appears on the CMS Special Focus Facility list (status: SFF). SFF designation is reserved for facilities with a persistent pattern of substandard quality of care — typically high deficiency counts across consecutive surveys. CMS conducts a standard survey approximately every six months on SFF facilities (vs. up to fifteen months for non-SFF) and tracks two consecutive improved surveys as the exit criterion. Facilities that fail to improve over 18-24 months on the SFF list face termination of their Medicare provider agreement under 42 CFR 488.456.
Recent health deficiencies cited at last standard survey: 31. National average for facilities of this size is approximately 8 deficiencies per cycle. In its most recent reporting cycle, The Terrace At Crystal LLC received 8 CMS fines totaling $174,044. Last documented standard health survey: 2025-12-08. CMS conducts standard surveys at most every 15 months for SNFs, with substandard-quality findings triggering more frequent revisits.
CMS health survey weighted score: 938. 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.
Payment denials for new admissions in the most recent CMS reporting window: 4. Denial-of-payment-for-new-admissions (DPNA) is one of the enforcement remedies CMS uses under 42 CFR 488.417. It is typically imposed when a facility has been cited at scope and severity levels of F or higher and fails to substantially comply by the date specified in the certification notice.
Total enforcement penalties assessed in the most recent reporting window: $12. This figure aggregates Civil Money Penalties (CMPs), DPNA-equivalent revenue impacts, and other monetary remedies under 42 CFR Part 488 Subpart F.
At today's staffing levels, The Terrace At Crystal LLC would not meet the cadre-specific minimums scheduled to take effect on the May 2027 timeline under 89 FR 40876: RN HPRD is 0.52 vs the 0.55 floor, a 0.03-hour gap. Closing this gap typically requires either net new hires at the specific cadre, shifted scheduling that reallocates existing FTEs to direct-care hours, or a hardship exemption application under 42 CFR 483.35.
Total nurse staffing: 4.427 hours per resident day (HPRD), which is 0.95 hours above the 3.48 total HPRD floor that the CMS Minimum Staffing Standards rule (89 FR 40876, May 2024) phases in for non-rural facilities by May 2027.
Staffing mix: RN 0.52 HPRD, LPN 0.914 HPRD, CNA 2.993 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 2027 timeline; RN-specific shortfalls have historically been the most common single-facility staffing deficiency at standard surveys.
Weekend RN staffing: 0.383 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: 27.5% annualized — moderate.
RN-specific turnover: 57.1% annualized. RN turnover above 50% is the single strongest correlate with QM rating decline in CMS's own internal analyses.
The Terrace At Crystal LLC 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 urban (within a metropolitan statistical area). Urban SNFs typically face higher acuity post-acute admissions, more competitive labor markets, and stricter local-jurisdiction infection control requirements layered on top of federal CoPs.
Peer comparisons use a same-state cohort of 200 Medicare-certified SNFs, pulled live from CMS Provider Data. The cohort excludes terminated and surrendered certifications.
FileFlo's compliance indicator for The Terrace At Crystal LLC is 55/100 (Material Gaps). The score is derived from publicly published health-deficiency counts, weighted survey scores, infection-control citations, fines, and staffing hours per resident day. It is not a CMS rating.
