In the fourth quarter of 2023, Hammond Health Services stood out as the second largest nursing home in St. Croix County, tied with five other nursing homes, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). It shared its ranking with Baldwin Care Center, Christian Community Home, Deerfield Care Center, LLC, Park View Home, and St. Croix Health Center.

Data shows that the nursing center had a total of 50 beds available, two less than the average in St. Croix County as of the fourth quarter of 2023. They aided an average of 29.9 residents during that period.

Hammond Health Services boasted an overall rating of 5 from the CMS, which is higher than the average of 3.1 recorded for nursing homes in Wisconsin.

During the quarter, Kinnic Health and Rehabilitation Center stood out as the largest nursing home in St. Croix County, with 68 beds available.

As of the fourth quarter of 2023, Hammond Health Services achieved a zero-incident record for fines and penalties.

In total, there were two for-profit nursing homes in St. Croix County, Wisconsin.

According to US Census data, in 2020, nearly 1 in 6 Americans were aged 65 years or older. Since 1920, the older population skyrocketed from 4.9 million to 55.8 million, reflecting a growth rate of roughly 1,000%, five times higher than the average growth for the overall U.S. population.

A 2021 study suggests that nearly half of this age group, roughly 28 million individuals, may require long-term services and support. Additionally, the study projects that over a third of them may eventually need nursing home care.

“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education group. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
