The property features both a 97-bed skilled nursing facility that the City of Chetak built in 1963 and an adjoining 14-unit assisted living community that was added in 1997. Plus, there was a 2010 remodel of the kitchen, dining room, staff and resident lounges and the hallways throughout the building. However, occupancy had been falling in the previous years at the SNF, and the facility was losing money, compared to the assisted living, which posted positive net income. Occupancy stood at 86% at the SNF, with a 30% quality... Read More »
