Hennis Care Centre Of Dover runs 120 certified beds as an individual for-profit, and the staffing picture is mixed. Nurses provide 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 33.9%, well below the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. The 46 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with two fines totaling $15,820, and the most recent inspection was April 17, 2025.

Fox Run Manor in Findlay runs 120 beds under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the weak spot: 33 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was in April 2024, so that record is fairly current. Staffing sits at 3.75 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 39.1%, which is better than the 45.8% national figure. The quality measure score is strong, but quality measures largely reflect clinical documentation, not whether residents are safe or adequately staffed. Inspection findings and weekend coverage matter more to daily life.

Willow Brook runs on a non-profit model with 50 beds in Columbus, and its staffing numbers are genuinely strong, 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 38.9%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The catch is the inspection record: 25 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse. That's a real gap between how the place is staffed and how it's been cited. The last inspection was April 2026, so the record is current. Quality and staffing measures look good; the survey history is where the caution lives.

Belmont Manor runs 57 beds under corporate ownership in St. Clairsville, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.03 hours per resident day, roughly 4% above the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 13% below weekday coverage, and turnover lands at 40.7%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, so ask about that directly. Its last inspection was March 3, 2026, and the quality measure rating comes in at 5 out of 5. The staffing and quality numbers look solid; the deficiency count and that single abuse flag are what a family should press on.

Otterbein North Shore runs a small 20-bed nonprofit home in Lakeside, and the staffing numbers stand out: 4.80 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, with a five-star CMS staffing rating to match. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 53.1%, higher than the 45.8% national average, which matters in a building this size where one departure is felt. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The most recent inspection was March 2026, so the picture is current.

Atlantes The is a small for-profit home in Clermont County, just 30 certified beds, and the numbers behind its A grade hold up. Nurse staffing runs 4.48 hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, and its 34.4% annual turnover sits well below the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. Its inspection record is clean: zero deficiencies on file, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 30, 2026. The one soft spot is weekends, when staffing drops roughly 12% below its own weekday level. Worth asking how that gap gets covered.

The Oaks At Bethesda runs 55 certified beds in Zanesville under corporate, for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 9% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the standout number in a good way: 26% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for your relative are more likely to still be there next year. The tradeoff is the inspection record, 21 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse citations, and a survey completed May 28, 2026. Quality measures score well, but the harm-level findings are what a family should ask about directly.

Ohio Living Westminster-Thurber runs lean on paper in a way that mostly holds up, 5.18 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and that's the main reason it lands where it does. The trouble sits elsewhere. Staff turnover is 58.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, and weekend coverage drops about 13% from weekday levels, so the hours aren't spread evenly. On inspections, 27 deficiencies include one at harm level and six tied to abuse, with a $14,680 fine on record. Quality measures score high; the inspection history is what pulls it down.

Mount Saint Joseph Rehab Center runs on 5.05 nurse hours per resident day, about 31% above the national average of 3.86, and that staffing shows up in a 4/5 staffing star rating. Weekends dip roughly 9% below its own weekday coverage, so care can look a little different on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 52.5%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because new faces mean less continuity for a 90-bed home. The inspection record includes 13 deficiencies, one at the harm level and one abuse-related, though the last survey was recent, April 2025, and the health inspection rating is 4/5.

Main Street Terrace runs 50 beds in Lancaster, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.71 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. Turnover is the bright spot at 33.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning fewer caregivers cycling out the door than most homes. The current inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse. The last inspection was December 31, 2025.

Mt Healthy Christian Home runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 75-bed nonprofit, just under 5 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 29% above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekdays. That's the kind of consistency that matters when a resident needs help on a Sunday night. Inspections back it up: a perfect health inspection record and no abuse deficiencies, with the most recent visit in October 2024. Two things keep this from being a clean sweep. Staff turnover sits at 51.4%, above the 45.8% national average, which can wear on continuity of care. And of seven deficiencies on record, one rose to the harm level. Worth asking the administrator how they're addressing both.

Turnover sits at 50.7%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, and two fines totaling $8,090. The last inspection was May 30, 2025, and CMS gives it five stars on health inspections and quality measures, four on staffing. Staffing depth and inspection results are strong here; the turnover rate and those three abuse-related tags are the things worth asking about directly.

Algart Health Care sits on Cleveland's west side with 78 certified beds and a for-profit corporate owner. The numbers that matter most here are clean: five deficiencies on the current record, none of them causing harm or jeopardy, and none related to abuse. That's a record inspectors last reviewed in September 2025, and the 5-star health inspection rating reflects it. Staffing is where the picture gets more mixed. At 3.55 nurse hours per resident day, Algart runs about 8 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11 percent below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family member needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover, at 41.3 percent, is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure.

Burton Health Care Center runs a tight ship on inspections, a five-star record with only five deficiencies and none rising to actual harm, which is unusual for a 90-bed for-profit. The staffing is where the shine dulls: 3.06 nurse hours per resident day sits about 21% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the hours thin out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 37.5% beats the national 45.8%, meaning this isn't a churning building. You're looking at a clean inspection history paired with genuinely light staffing, worth asking the administrator how they cover Saturday and Sunday.

Masternick Memorial runs 99 certified beds in New Middletown under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national average, 3.87 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally. The bigger issue is consistency: weekend staffing drops about 20% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is 30.2%, meaningfully better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in the workforce. On its current record are 7 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though 2 are abuse-related. The last inspection was March 12, 2026, and all three CMS star categories, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, land at 4 out of 5.

Shepherd of the Valley Poland runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership and 32 certified beds, and the numbers mostly back it up. Nurse staffing sits at 4.53 hours per resident day, roughly 17% above the national average, and turnover is 25.8% against a national figure near 46%, that kind of retention matters more than almost anything else for consistent care. The tradeoff is weekends, when coverage drops about 22% below the home's own weekday level, and the inspection record shows 7 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, with no abuse citations. The last inspection was recent, in September 2025. Nothing here looks like a crisis, but that one harm-level finding and the weekend dip are worth asking about directly.

Staff turnover sits at 40%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The health inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, one of them at the harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations, and the last inspection was July 2024.

Van Wert Manor runs leaner on nurse staffing than the typical American nursing home, 3.77 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 12% below its own weekday coverage, so a Saturday or Sunday shift is when your family member is most likely to wait. Turnover is the brighter spot: 34.5% versus 45.8% nationally, meaning caregivers here tend to stick around longer than at the average home. The inspection record shows 9 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine of $25,490, with the most recent survey done in May 2025.

Turnover sits at 38.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses here tend to stick around longer than at the typical home. Nine deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in February 2025. Corporate-owned and for profit, 77 beds.
