Finnish-American Village runs on a level of nurse staffing that most homes don't come close to, 4.34 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage holding nearly steady. What stands out just as much is the turnover: 12.2% annually, when the typical nursing home is losing closer to 46% of its staff every year. Eleven deficiencies sit on the current record, but none rose to the level of harm or jeopardy, and nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was March 2025, and one fine totaling $9,471 is the only money the home has paid. A nonprofit with 45 beds in Lake Worth, it looks steady across every measure that matters.
