Nurse hours

Staff turnover
42%
Serious cites
0

Crowne Health Care Of Citronelle runs on 4.55 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 18 percent more than the national average, and its last health inspection in June 2023 closed with no deficiencies at all, none at the harm level, none tied to abuse. Staff turnover sits at 41.8 percent, which is lower than the 45.8 percent national figure but still high enough that you should ask how they keep consistent caregivers on the floor. The one thing to look at closely is weekends, when staffing drops about 15 percent below its own weekday level. If your family member needs help most on Saturday and Sunday, ask who is actually there.

Aliceville Manor Nursing Home

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
38%
Serious cites
0

Aliceville Manor runs about 3.88 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a hair above the national average, with weekends dropping about 14% below its own weekday staffing. The turnover picture is better than most: 38.3% against a national average of 45.8%, so more of the people caring for residents tend to stick around. On the inspection side, there are 8 deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last full inspection was in June 2023. This is a for-profit corporate home with 100 certified beds, and the staffing and quality measure ratings both land at 4 out of 5, staffing at 5.

Staff turnover
46%
Serious cites
0

Albertville Nursing Home runs on unusually heavy staffing for a for-profit corporate home, 5.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, which is why its staffing rating tops out. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekdays, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 46%, essentially the national average, so the extra hours don't come with unusual churn. Nine deficiencies are on record with nothing at the harm or abuse level, and the last inspection was November 2019, a long stretch without a fresh look, worth asking about directly.

Crossville, AL · De Kalb County

CMS 5/5 143 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
47%
Serious cites

Crossville Health and Rehabilitation runs 143 certified beds under for-profit corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.78 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 12% below what the home staffs on weekdays, and turnover lands at 46.8%, a touch above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, though the last full inspection was November 2021. Quality measures score high and staffing holds steady, which is what keeps this one in solid territory despite thin weekend coverage and a four-year gap since inspectors last walked through.

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Serious cites

Cherokee County Health and Rehabilitation Center runs on strong staffing and a clean safety record, even though its last health inspection didn't go smoothly. Nurses give residents 4.74 hours of care per day, roughly 23% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only about 10% below weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 34.8%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection side is weaker: 12 deficiencies on record and a one-star health inspection rating from CMS. None of those deficiencies involved actual harm or abuse, and the most recent inspection was December 11, 2025. As a nonprofit with 185 beds, it's a place where the day-to-day caregiving looks steadier than the paperwork does.

Staff turnover
44%

Henry County Health and Rehabilitation runs on county money, and the numbers show it: 5.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 30% above the national average, which is enough to earn the top federal staffing rating. Turnover sits at 43.6%, modestly better than the 45.8% national figure, though weekend coverage drops about 15% below weekday levels, so care can thin out on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 11 deficiencies with nothing at the harm or abuse level, but the last visit was February 2022, over three years ago. Strong staffing paired with that gap in oversight is what's behind the grade.

Monroe Manor Health & Rehabilitation Center

Monroeville, AL · Monroe County

CMS 1/5 84 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
3.95 /day
Staff turnover
19%
Serious cites
0

Monroe Manor runs on a stable crew, 19% annual turnover is less than half the national average, and that consistency shows in the staffing numbers, which sit about 2% above the national benchmark. Weekends are the weak spot, with coverage dropping roughly 15% below weekday levels, so ask how that gap gets filled. The heavier concerns are on the inspection side: 16 deficiencies on the current record, including 2 tied to abuse, and the most recent survey is from April 2026. A corporation owns the 84-bed home, and while the federal inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5, resident care measures land at 3.

Valley Springs Rehabilitation And Health Center

Van Buren, AR · Crawford County

CMS 4/5 105 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
3.71 /day
Staff turnover
31%
Serious cites
0

Valley Springs runs on tighter nurse staffing than most homes nationally, about 3.71 hours per resident day against a 3.86 average, and weekends dip roughly 12% below what the building itself manages on weekdays. The tradeoff is stability: turnover sits at 30.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters when you're asking whether the same aides will know your mother in six months. The 26 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level, came with a January 2025 inspection, so the picture is recent. A for-profit LLC runs the place, and its quality measure scores are strong even where the inspection record isn't spotless.

Crestpark Marianna runs on a for-profit LLC model with 80 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the story here. At 3.95 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just above the national average of 3.86, not by much, but consistent enough to earn a top staffing rating. Weekend coverage drops about 8% below weekdays, which is common but worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays. Turnover at 27.3% is well below the 45.8% national figure, suggesting people stick around. The 16 deficiencies on record include two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was May 2026.

The Green House Cottages of Northwest Arkansas runs 5.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86, and that staffing holds up well enough that weekends drop only about 9% below weekdays. The inspection record backs it up: a 5/5 health inspection rating, six deficiencies on file with none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and a single $705 fine. Turnover sits at 45.8%, essentially the national average, so continuity of care is neither a strength nor a weakness here. Recent inspection, low fines, strong staffing, for-profit LLC ownership. The numbers are clean.

Driftwood Healthcare Center in Santa Cruz carries 92 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership. Its total nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, a hair above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 6% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. Turnover lands at 46.2%, essentially matching the national 45.8%. The inspection record is where things get harder to ignore: 51 deficiencies on file, three of them serious enough to cause harm, plus one tied to abuse. Its most recent inspection was December 2025. Quality measures score well, but that paperwork record tells a more complicated story than the stars suggest.

Hollenbeck Palms runs on a nonprofit model with 106 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are genuinely strong: 4.59 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average of 3.86. Turnover sits at 28.1% against a national 45.8%, which suggests workers are staying put. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is where the picture gets more complicated, 39 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, though the most recent inspection was in December 2025, so the record is current.

Beachside Post Acute runs 4.48 nurse hours per resident per day, about 16% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 31.9% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, that combination matters more than most single numbers here. Weekend staffing dips roughly 11% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. The 41 deficiencies on record is a lot of paperwork, but none reached harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, and inspectors were last in on May 29, 2026, so the record is current. A for-profit corporation operates the 90-bed home.

Grand Terrace Health Care Center runs about 4.69 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 21% above the national average, and its weekend staffing only dips about 11% below weekdays, a smaller drop than many homes show. Turnover sits at 32.4%, well under the national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The 27 deficiencies on record include none tied to harm or abuse, and the most recent inspection was March 2026. It's a for-profit corporate home with 59 beds, but the staffing consistency and clean harm record are what stand out.

Montrose Healthcare Center runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.16 per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff stick around better than the typical facility, with turnover at 35.7% versus 45.8% nationally. Weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, which is worth knowing if your visits would fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The tradeoff sits in its inspection history: 40 deficiencies on the current record, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse. State inspectors were last in the building on April 30, 2026, so the record is current. Ownership is a for-profit corporation.

Springs Road Healthcare in Vallejo runs 65 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, though weekend coverage drops about 8% below its own weekday level. The standout number is turnover: 19.7% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning far fewer caregivers are cycling through the building than at most homes. Inspections in March 2025 produced a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating and 28 deficiencies on record, including two tied to abuse, but none at the harm or jeopardy level. Quality measures rate 5 out of 5, so the clinical picture holds up even where the inspection record has some dents.

Pomona Vista Care Center sits in a for-profit LLC with 59 certified beds, and its staffing is genuinely stronger than most: 4.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, with turnover at 31.7% against a national 45.8%. That stability shows up in the staffing rating, and the quality measures are top-tier too. The trouble is the inspection record. Seventy-five deficiencies on file, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse. Weekend coverage also dips about 11% below its own weekday level. Good daily care numbers, but a paper trail that says problems have happened here.

Sherwood Healthcare Center runs 62 beds in Sacramento under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers here are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip about 8% below weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family member needs care on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 30%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests a more stable crew than many places. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. State surveyors gave four stars for health inspections and five for quality measures, with three for staffing.

Upland Rehabilitation and Care Center runs on 5.32 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 38 percent above the national average, and its staff turnover of 35 percent sits well under the 45.8 percent national figure. Weekend coverage dips about 9 percent below weekday levels, which is common but worth knowing if you'll be visiting then. The 32 deficiencies on record include one abuse-related citation; none rose to the harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was in May 2025. Inspections, quality measures, and staffing all land at 4 or 5 stars, which is genuinely strong for a 206-bed for-profit corporate home. The abuse citation is the one item I'd ask about directly.

Community Care and Rehabilitation Center runs 162 beds in Riverside under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is its clearest strength, 4.14 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping roughly 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 35%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests aides and nurses are staying longer than at many places. The concerns show up in the inspection record: 52 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, against a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so that record is current. Strong quality measures and staffing numbers coexist here with real compliance problems, worth asking about those abuse-related citations directly.
