Westport Place Health Campus

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
37%
Serious cites
0

Westport Place Health Campus runs on 4.37 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly 13 percent above the national average, though weekends drop about 14 percent below its own weekday staffing. That dip matters more than the headline number, since weekends are when problems tend to surface. Staff turnover sits at 36.9 percent, meaningfully better than the 45.8 percent national figure, a real signal that workers are sticking around. The inspection record is clean where it counts: eight deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey from February 2026. At 64 beds and corporate for-profit ownership, this is a small building with steady staffing and no serious safety findings on file.

The Springs At Stony Brook runs about 4.08 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 6% above the national average of 3.86, though weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 38.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The current record shows three deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in May 2025, recent enough to trust what's on file. Quality measures scored 5/5 and staffing 4/5 under CMS, and this for-profit corporate home holds 66 certified beds.

Lasalle Nursing Home

Nurse hours

Serious cites

LaSalle Nursing Home runs on a hospital district's budget in Jena, and the numbers behind it are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 4.60 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 13% below its own weekday level, a gap that's real but not dramatic. Turnover is the standout: 23.6% against a national average near 46%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoffs show up elsewhere. Inspectors found seven deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse, and the home carries a single fine of $7,443. Its last inspection was in December 2025, so the picture is recent. Quality measure scores land in the middle at 3 out of 5, which is where the overall grade loses ground.

Staff turnover

Alice Byrd Tawes runs a nonprofit home with 76 beds in Crisfield, and the inspection history is the strongest part of the picture: a four-star health inspection rating and a recent survey on record. But 31 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, is a lot of findings to carry. Nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10 percent under the national average, and weekends run about 11 percent thinner than weekdays, so coverage has a dip built into it. Turnover is 41.3 percent, a bit better than the national 45.8 percent, which suggests some stability in the workforce.

Wilson Health Care Center sits in Gaithersburg with 285 certified beds and a nonprofit owner, and the staffing numbers are the real story here: 4.12 nurse hours per resident day, about 7 percent above the national average. Weekend coverage dips roughly 11 percent below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover is 13.5 percent against a national average near 46 percent, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month. The current record shows 32 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but 4 are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Inspectors were last in on April 10, 2025.

Serious cites

Asbury Solomons runs on thin nurse staffing, 3.83 hours per resident day, just under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends are leaner still, about 13% below its own weekday coverage. What stands out more is retention: turnover of 35.3% sits well under the 45.8% national average, which matters because familiar aides tend to notice changes in a resident sooner. Inspections in June 2025 produced 23 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three were abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The five-star marks on health inspections and quality measures reflect real performance, but the abuse citations and weekend dips are the details a tour won't show you.

Winchester Rehabilitation And Nursing Center, a for-profit LLC home with 121 certified beds, carries a 5/5 CMS staffing rating, and it's earned: 4.38 nurse hours per resident day sits about 13% above the national average of 3.86. Turnover tells a similar story, 28% annual staff turnover against a national average near 46% means the people caring for residents tend to stay. Weekend staffing dips roughly 14% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. The health inspection record shows 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a recent inspection dated February 2026. For a for-profit home, that combination of staffing depth, retention, and a clean harm record is uncommon.

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
33%
Serious cites
0

Nurse staffing at Neville Center runs about 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, and that cushion matters most on weekends, which here run about 15% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 33%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent state visit in May 2025. As a nonprofit, it isn't answerable to shareholders. Three four-star CMS ratings across inspections, quality measures, and staffing back up what the numbers suggest: solid, consistent care.

West Side House runs about 4.26 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, and it holds a five-star inspection record with no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, a meaningful distinction when the current count is 13, including two tied to abuse. The catch is staffing shape: weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure. A recent inspection in March 2026 means the survey history is current, not stale. Corporate for-profit ownership, 91 beds. The scores are strong; the turnover and weekend dip are the parts to ask about directly.

Victoria Haven runs on a small crew, 31 beds, and the staffing numbers are genuinely strong: 4.58 nurse hours per resident day, about 19% above the national average, with a 5/5 staffing rating and turnover at 21.7% against a national 45.8%. That consistency matters, though weekends dip roughly 9% below weekday levels. The inspection record is where the picture darkens. A 1/5 health inspection rating, 39 deficiencies on file, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, and a $40,641 fine. The last inspection was January 2026, so the record is current, not stale. Strong hands on deck, but a documented pattern of care problems those hands haven't solved.

Nurse hours

Mackinac Straits runs a tight staffing ship: 4.27 nurse hours per resident day beats the national average by about 11%, and the weekend dip is only around 7%, which is modest compared to what many homes see. Turnover sits at 23.3%, roughly half the national rate, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The trade-offs show up elsewhere. The health inspection record includes 13 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and one tied to abuse, and quality measures score poorly at 2 stars despite the recent May 2025 inspection. Nonprofit ownership and strong staffing are real strengths; the deficiency record is the piece families should ask about.

Nurse hours

Briarwood is a 117-bed for-profit home in Flint, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.66 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends run about 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 40.6% is actually better than the national 45.8%, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record is the weak spot: 42 deficiencies on file, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none abuse-related. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well and staffing holds up, but 42 deficiencies is a lot to carry.

Westlake Health Campus runs a 61-bed for-profit home in Commerce, and its staffing is the clearest strength in the file: 4.19 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, with a 5/5 CMS staffing rating and turnover at 34.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure. Weekend coverage does slip about 13% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is more mixed: 21 deficiencies on file, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none abuse-related. The most recent inspection was January 2026, so that picture is current, not stale.

Valley Health Center runs on unusually thick nurse coverage: 5.18 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and it holds onto staff far better than most, 22.9% turnover against a national 45.8%. Weekend hours dip about 8% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The inspection record is recent (July 2025) and mostly clean, though ten deficiencies include one at the harm level and none related to abuse. Quality measure scores sit at 2 out of 5, which is the number worth asking about directly, staffing strength and quality ratings don't always tell the same story.

The Oaks At Woodfield runs about 4.26 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 10% above the national average, though weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 41.6%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the home has 20 deficiencies on its current record with none at the harm or jeopardy level, plus one abuse-related citation. Inspectors were last on site in May 2025, so the record is recent rather than stale. At 64 beds under individual for-profit ownership, quality measures and health inspection results both came back strong.

Maple Manor Rehab Center Of Novi runs 72 certified beds in Oakland County under corporate, for-profit ownership. The staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 5.84 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekdays. Turnover sits at 41%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. Inspections tell a more mixed story, 32 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with the most recent visit in March 2025. Michigan survey averages run high, so 32 isn't unusual for a building this size, but the abuse citations are worth asking about directly before you decide.

Edenbrook Of Edina runs 4.01 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and its staff turnover of 38.3% is lower than the 45.8% typical elsewhere, meaning caregivers here tend to stick around longer than at most homes. Weekends, though, dip roughly 10% below weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. The record isn't clean: 29 deficiencies, including six tied to abuse and one at the harm level, with a two-star health inspection rating. That last inspection was in January 2026, so the findings are recent. Quality measures score well and staffing is solid, but the inspection history is the part worth pressing on.

The Green Prairie Rehabilitation Center runs 42 beds in Plainview under corporate for-profit ownership, and its last health inspection came in December 2025 with no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, though one abuse-related citation is on the record among ten total. Nurse staffing sits at 3.29 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 11% leaner than weekdays. Turnover is 38.9%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. Federal ratings put quality measures and staffing at the top of the scale, and inspection results close behind.

Assumption Home in Cold Spring runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership and 76 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.01 hours per resident day, about 4% above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 12% below its own weekday levels. Turnover lands at 44.1%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection history is where you'll want to slow down: 15 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus a single fine of $17,345. The last inspection was November 2024. Strong staffing and quality marks coexist with real findings, so ask about the abuse citation and the weekend coverage gap directly.

Serious cites

Eventide Lutheran Home runs on unusually deep staffing for a nonprofit: 4.88 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its 32.2% turnover sits well under the 45.8% typical elsewhere. That consistency shows up where it matters, weekends dip only about 7% below weekday coverage, so care doesn't thin out when families visit. The trade-off is inspection history: 22 deficiencies on record, four serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, and three fines totaling $39,393. The most recent state visit was June 2025, so the record is current. Strong staffing and steady retention don't erase a troubled survey trail, ask to see how those four harm-level findings were corrected.
