Davenport Lutheran Home is a non-profit, church-related skilled nursing facility located at 1130 W 53rd Street in Davenport, Iowa, within Scott County. The facility holds certification for both Medicare and Medicaid and operates with 98 certified beds. As a church-related organization, it falls under non-profit governance rather than for-profit or government ownership. The facility carries an overall CMS star rating of 2 out of 5, which falls below the national average of 3.0 stars. CMS star ratings are calculated based on three component domains: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. Davenport Lutheran Home received a 2-star rating in the health inspection category, reflecting findings from state survey inspections conducted over a defined review period. The staffing rating stands at 4 stars, indicating staffing levels that are above average relative to other certified nursing facilities nationally. The quality measure rating is 2 stars, which is below the national average and reflects clinical outcome data collected across a standardized set of resident care indicators. Davenport Lutheran Home accepts both Medicare and Medicaid as payment sources, making it accessible to residents who qualify for either federal program. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, while Medicaid may cover longer-term custodial care for residents who meet income and asset eligibility criteria. Individuals and families researching payment options are advised to contact the facility directly at (563) 391-5342 to discuss specific coverage, private pay arrangements, and any additional insurance considerations. When compared to national benchmarks, Davenport Lutheran Home presents a mixed profile. The overall 2-star rating places it below the national average of 3.0 stars. The staffing component at 4 stars is a notable area where the facility performs above average, suggesting that nurse and aide staffing levels are higher than what is seen at many comparable facilities across the country. However, the 2-star ratings in both health inspections and quality measures indicate performance below national norms in those areas. Prospective residents and their families are encouraged to review the full CMS Nursing Home Care Compare report for detailed inspection findings and quality measure breakdowns. This data is updated periodically by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and represents one of several factors to consider when evaluating a skilled nursing facility in Davenport or the broader Scott County region.
