Foothills Rehabilitation Center runs 149 certified beds in Tucson under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.07 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping only about 7% below weekdays. Turnover sits at 22.8%, roughly half the national rate, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month. The inspection record tells a different story. Twenty-three deficiencies are on file, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was March 2026, so it's current. Strong daily care and a troubled survey history can coexist in one building; the question is whether the problems are fixed or recurring.

Life Care Center of North Glendale runs 223 beds under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the story: 28 deficiencies on file, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection came back in July 2023. Staffing is where it gets thinner. At 3.39 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 12 percent under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 11 percent below its own weekday coverage. Turnover, though, is genuinely low at 29.6 percent against a 45.8 percent national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. That combination, stable staff, modest hours, clean inspections, is what's driving the grade.

Coronado Healthcare Center runs 191 certified beds in Phoenix under individual for-profit ownership. Its inspection record is solid on paper, a 4/5 health inspection rating and 12 total deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The tradeoff shows up in daily staffing: 3.55 nurse hours per resident day sits about 8% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 13% lighter than weekdays, so care coverage depends on when you visit. Staff turnover at 43.8% is slightly better than the national 45.8%. A recent inspection date of January 30, 2026 means the record is current. Strong quality measures, thinner staffing floor.

Life Care Center of Paradise Valley runs 210 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends thin out further, roughly 14% below the home's own weekday coverage. What stands out is retention: 25.3% turnover against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay, which matters for residents who need consistent hands. The tradeoff shows up in oversight. Inspectors cited 28 deficiencies, 11 of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the last visit was recent. Quality measures score well; the inspection record is the weaker half of the picture.

Providence Place At Glencroft runs 225 beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing numbers are quietly solid: 3.89 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average, with turnover at 33.9% against a 45.8% national figure. Retention like that matters more than a decimal point. The catch is the inspection record, 19 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, and a two-star health inspection rating even though quality and staffing both earned four. Weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays. The most recent inspection was in May 2025, so the record is current, not stale. A nonprofit that keeps its staff and scores well on care measures but keeps drawing inspection problems is the pattern here.

Estrella Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 161 certified beds in Avondale under corporate for-profit ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.50 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 12% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The good news is retention: 36.4% annual turnover beats the 45.8% national figure, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces. Its current record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection dated April 10, 2026. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspections sit mid-range.

The Springs Magnolia runs 3.49 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 35%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the staff who are there tend to stay. Inspections show 19 deficiencies on record with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The last inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current. A for-profit LLC with 140 beds, rated four stars on both health inspections and quality measures, three on staffing. The gap between those numbers is the story: care quality looks solid, but it rests on a thinner nursing floor than average, especially on weekends.

Gassville Therapy And Living runs 105 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nursing hours come in at 3.67 per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend staffing dips about 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 39.6%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, meaning fewer people are cycling out the door. The inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in December 2025. Quality measures scored 5/5 from CMS, staffing 4/5, health inspections 3/5.

The Springs of Hillcrest runs 3.67 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips roughly 12% below its own weekday levels, worth knowing if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 41.7%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests the aides and nurses here tend to stick around longer than at many for-profit corporate homes. The record shows 19 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and no abuse citations; the most recent inspection was in August 2025. Quality measures score well and inspections hold up, but the thin staffing margin is the thing to watch.

Shiloh Nursing and Rehab runs 140 beds in Springdale under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a fresh February 2025 survey, 14 deficiencies total, and none of them at the harm or jeopardy level. One abuse-related deficiency is on the books, so ask about that directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.76 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average, and weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, which is where thin staffing tends to show up. Turnover at 43.1% is a hair better than the typical nursing home, though that's still nearly half the staff leaving each year.

Presbyterian Village runs a strong clinical operation on the staffing side. At 5.51 nurse hours per resident day, it's well above the national average, roughly 43% more hands-on time, and a 32.9% turnover rate against a 45.8% national figure suggests a workforce that mostly sticks around. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekday levels, which is common but worth asking about if you're planning visits or admissions on Saturdays and Sundays. The tradeoff shows up in the quality measures, where the home scores 2 out of 5 despite a perfect health inspection rating and no deficiencies involving harm or abuse. Twelve deficiencies on record with none at the harm level means the problems are real but not dangerous. A recent April 2025 inspection keeps the picture current.

Nurse staffing at this state-run veterans home runs 5.06 hours per resident day, about 31% above the national average, and weekends dip roughly 12% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 61.7% against a national average of 45.8%, which means a lot of the people providing that care are new to the building. The record shows 16 deficiencies, none at the harm level but one tied to abuse, and the last inspection was in May 2025. Strong clinical quality marks and steady staffing numbers sit alongside a workforce that keeps changing.

The Green House Cottages of Poplar Grove runs on more nursing hours than most places, 5.26 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, though weekend coverage dips about 9% below what it manages on weekdays. That staffing edge comes with churn: 55.5% annual turnover, roughly ten points above the national figure, so the people delivering those hours keep changing. Its current record carries 24 deficiencies, none serious enough to trigger a harm or jeopardy citation, but one tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was in March 2026, so the picture is fresh. Quality measures score well; inspections and staffing land in the middle. A limited liability company operates it for profit.

Hampton Place runs a 140-bed for-profit operation in Rogers, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, five stars, three deficiencies on file, none involving harm or jeopardy, nothing abuse-related, and a survey as recent as December 2024. Nurse staffing sits at 4.87 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, which is the kind of cushion that matters on a bad night. The catch is consistency: weekends run about 10 percent lighter than weekdays, and turnover hits 60.1 percent against a national 45.8. High turnover at that rate means aides you meet in January may be gone by summer, and familiarity is worth something.

Pleasant Hill Post Acute runs about 51 beds under for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits roughly 9% above the national average, which is the main reason its numbers hold up. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, so care can thin out on Saturdays and Sundays. The 30% annual turnover is notably lower than the 45.8% national figure, meaning the staff you meet are more likely to still be there next year. Its inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025.

Rosecrans Care Center runs 4.04 nurse hours per resident per day, slightly above the national average, and its staff turnover of 35% is meaningfully better than the 45.8% typical nationwide, that kind of retention usually shows up in more consistent daily care. The catch is the inspection record: 55 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in April 2025. Weekend staffing also drops about 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. The quality measure score is a bright spot, but the volume of deficiencies and the abuse findings are the parts worth asking about directly before you decide.

Parkway Hills runs 60 beds in La Mesa under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, modestly ahead of the national 3.86 average. Weekends drop about 9% below weekday coverage, so if your family visits on a Sunday, expect a thinner floor than midweek. Turnover lands at 34.9%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests aides and nurses are staying put longer than at the typical home. The state inspected most recently in September 2025 and found 51 deficiencies on the current record, none rising to harm or jeopardy, though two are abuse-related and worth asking about directly.

Garden View Post Acute Rehabilitation runs 97 certified beds in Baldwin Park under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.34 hours per resident day, about 12% above the national average of 3.86. That edge narrows on weekends, which run roughly 12% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover lands at 39.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, and the last inspection was recent, February 2026. The record shows 45 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Federal stars split: 5/5 on quality measures, 3/5 on both health inspections and staffing. What you're weighing is a home with real clinical quality marks and decent retention against a lengthy deficiency list and thinner weekend coverage.

Sunny Village Care Center runs a 99-bed for-profit operation in Alhambra, and its staffing is genuinely above average, 5.70 nurse hours per resident day against a national figure closer to 3.86, with turnover at 21.6% when the typical home loses closer to 46% of its staff annually. That stability matters, though weekend coverage dips about 13% below weekday levels. The weaker numbers sit elsewhere: 62 deficiencies on the current record, one tied to abuse, and a March 2026 inspection that produced middling marks for health and quality. Nothing on file rises to harm or jeopardy level, which is worth knowing, but the gap between how well this place is staffed and how it performs on inspections is the real story here.

The Vineyards Healthcare Center runs 83 certified beds in Livermore under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 4.16 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, which is worth knowing if you'll be visiting on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover lands at 41.1%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, so the crew here is somewhat more stable than most. Inspections in December 2024 produced 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the quality measure rating came back strong at 5/5.
