Staff turnover
36%

Bethany Village runs on 4.23 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, though weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters more than the headline number if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 35.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The inspection record is thin: two deficiencies total, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, with a survey completed in January 2026. As a nonprofit with 227 beds, it carries five stars on both health inspections and quality measures.

Glen Meadows runs a lean nursing floor: 3.72 nurse hours per resident day sits about 4% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and problems surface. What offsets it is a workforce that stays put, 26.6% annual turnover against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses here know the residents, which tends to show up in the 5/5 quality measure rating and a clean inspection record with no harm-level deficiencies. The two abuse-related citations on file are worth asking about directly, and the March 2026 inspection is recent enough to reflect current conditions under individual for-profit ownership.

Abbyshire Place runs lean on nurse hours, 3.55 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage. That's a real gap, though staff turnover sits at 23.9%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay, and CMS gives the home 4 of 5 stars for staffing and 5 for quality measures. Its inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none rising to harm or jeopardy, but two tied to abuse, and a 4-star health inspection rating from a visit in late 2025. For-profit, limited liability ownership, 95 beds.

St Mary's Alzheimer's Center runs 90 certified beds in Columbiana under corporate, for-profit ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.89 hours per resident day, barely above the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot at 27.4%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most. The inspection record is the concern: eight deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, with a $66,973 fine and a survey completed March 26, 2026. Strong quality measure scores don't cancel out harm-level findings.

Kensington At Anna Maria runs 4.48 nurse hours per resident day, about 16 percent above the national average, and its five-star health inspection and quality ratings suggest that staffing shows up where it counts. The caution is in staffing consistency: weekends drop roughly 11 percent below weekday levels, so coverage isn't uniform across the week. Four deficiencies appear on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in December 2025. Turnover sits at 42.9 percent, slightly better than the national 45.8 percent. Corporate for-profit ownership, 99 beds, and a solid but not flawless record.

Mill Manor runs a tight ship on inspections and quality measures, but staffing is where the numbers get interesting. At 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 13% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family member needs more hands-on help on Saturdays and Sundays. The tradeoff is stability: 17.2% turnover is far below the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. Thirteen deficiencies on record, three tied to abuse, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was January 2026.

Mennonite Memorial Home runs on slightly better staffing than most places, about 4.02 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with a four-star staffing rating to match. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays, and turnover sits at 46.8%, a touch above the national rate. Its inspection record shows 29 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though four are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in late 2024. The quality measure rating of four stars suggests the clinical numbers hold up. Church-affiliated nonprofit ownership, 60 beds.

The Orchards of East Liverpool runs 50 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.06 hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, though weekends drop about 9% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Staff turnover is 37.2%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around longer than at the typical home. Where it gets murkier is the inspection record: 33 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was December 17, 2025, so that picture is current. Strong quality measures and above-average staffing, weighed against a deficiency count worth asking about directly.

The Lakes of Sylvania runs on 4.01 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and its staff turnover of 34.4% sits well below the 45.8% norm, a sign people tend to stay. Weekend coverage dips roughly 10% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your visits fall on Saturdays. Inspectors have logged 17 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in February 2026. A five-star inspection and quality record paired with mid-range staffing marks is an unusual mix, but the underlying numbers here are solid.

The Springs of Lima runs 56 certified beds in Allen County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, 19 deficiencies on file, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, with a survey as recent as July 2025. Nurse staffing sits at 3.86 hours per resident day, right at the national average, though weekends drop roughly 15% below what the home staffs on weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover of 30.6% is well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay longer than at the typical home.

Rockland Ridge runs leaner than the typical American nursing home, 3.60 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage. What stands out is the stability of the workforce: 26.7% annual turnover is well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent staff tend to know residents' routines and catch changes early. The home's inspection record is clean where it counts, 7 deficiencies on file but none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a November 2025 inspection still recent. Corporate-owned and for-profit, it delivers solid outcomes without extra staffing cushion.
