Mclean Health Center runs on 5.12 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86, and its weekend coverage holds close to weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 26.6% against a national average near 46%, which matters for how well aides know the residents in a 72-bed nonprofit home. The tradeoff is a longer deficiency record: 14 citations on file, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none abuse-related. Its last inspection was April 2025, and CMS gives it top marks for staffing and quality measures, with a 4 out of 5 on health inspections.

Deerfield Health Care Center is a 30-bed nonprofit home in Urbandale, church-affiliated, and the numbers behind it are unusually steady. Nurse staffing runs 5.31 hours per resident day, roughly 38% above the national average, and weekends hold within about 2% of weekday coverage, a gap that sinks plenty of homes. Staff turnover sits at 25.8% against a national average of 45.8%, which matters because aides who stay know the residents. The inspection record shows three deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey completed March 27, 2025. At 30 beds, this is a small enough building that consistent staffing and low turnover show up directly in daily care.

Campion Health & Wellness runs on 6.80 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 76% above the national average of 3.86, a gap that shows up on weekends too, where hours dip only about 5% below the weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 30.8% against a national average of 45.8%, and the home carries a single deficiency on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with its last inspection in May 2025. It's a 70-bed nonprofit affiliated with a church, and its CMS stars come back 5/5 across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing. One family review so far, and it's a 5/5.

Parker At Somerset runs on 6.07 nurse hours per resident per day, which is roughly 57% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 5% below its own weekday level, but that's a small gap compared to most homes. Staff turnover sits at 17.7% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stick around, and the five deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was in April 2025, so the picture is recent, and as a nonprofit it isn't answering to shareholders.

The numbers at Hrh Transitional Care Unit in Meadowbrook are hard to argue with. Nurse staffing runs about 6.29 hours per resident day, roughly 63% above the national average, and turnover sits at 20.8%, well under half the national rate of 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know their residents. Inspections back it up: a 5/5 health inspection rating, three total deficiencies on record with none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and a recent survey from February 2026. It's a 21-bed nonprofit unit, so it's small, and the weekend staffing dip of about 3% below its own weekday level is minor. Nothing here looks like a red flag; the record reads like a home that staffs well and keeps its paperwork clean.

The numbers here are hard to argue with: 5.56 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 44 percent above the national average, and a 25.3 percent turnover rate against a national figure near 46 percent, meaning staff tend to stay, which matters more than almost anything for daily consistency. Weekend coverage dips only about 4 percent below weekdays, so care doesn't thin out when families are least likely to visit. On the regulatory side, the record is clean: zero deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. A five-star rating across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, under nonprofit ownership, is a rare combination.

Goodwin House Alexandria runs on 5.34 nursing hours per resident per day, about 38% above the national average, and that staffing holds up on weekends, roughly 5% below its own weekday level, which is a smaller drop than many homes show. Annual turnover sits at 17.8% against a national average near 46%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The current inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in April 2023. This is a church-related nonprofit with 80 certified beds, and the pattern across staffing, retention, and inspection history is unusually steady.

Searhc Sitka Long Term Care runs on unusually heavy nurse staffing, 7.89 hours per resident day, roughly double the national figure, and it holds that level up on weekends, when coverage dips only about 7% below its own weekday numbers. That consistency matters in a small 19-bed home, where one absence can strain a whole shift. Staff turnover sits at 31.4%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The current inspection record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a recent survey date of April 2026. The nonprofit ownership is worth noting too. Nothing here is flashy; the numbers just hold up.

Canterbury Woods runs 24 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stands out: 6.71 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 74% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 15% below its own weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 19.2% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. Inspections in February 2026 produced 26 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, alongside top marks on health inspection, quality measures, and staffing.

The Terraces at San Joaquin Gardens Village runs a strong staffing operation, 5.13 nurse hours per resident day, about a third above the national average, with a 5/5 CMS staffing star. Weekend coverage dips roughly 13% below weekday levels, and turnover sits at 30.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure. Quality measures score 5/5, though the 3/5 health inspection rating reflects 31 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level; no abuse citations appear. This nonprofit's last inspection was March 21, 2025, so the record is current. The staffing and quality numbers are the real story here.

Community Memorial Continuing Care Center in Ojai runs on about 5.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its staff tends to stay, 26.7% turnover against a national rate near 46%. The current record shows 15 deficiencies, none of them involving harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in January 2026. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. This is a nonprofit corporation with 75 certified beds, and the staffing, inspection, and quality measure ratings all sit at the top of CMS's scale.

Jefferson House runs on 5.17 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a third more staffing than the typical American nursing home, and the weekend gap is only about 12% below weekdays, modest by industry standards. Staff turnover sits at 31%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents' routines. The trade-off is a longer deficiency record: 25 citations on file, including two tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. State inspectors last visited in January 2025. For a nonprofit home of 104 beds, the money is clearly going into the floor.

Southington Care Center runs on 4.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 33.6% sits well under the 45.8% norm, two signs of a stable, well-resourced floor. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays. The record isn't spotless: 14 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. A May 2024 inspection and top federal marks across health, quality, and staffing round out the picture.

Village On The Isle runs 48 certified beds in Venice, and the numbers behind its grade are mostly about people, not paperwork. Nurse staffing sits at 5.74 hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average, and turnover is 9.7% against a national 45.8%, that stability matters more than any single inspection finding. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below weekdays, which is worth asking about directly. Three deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in May 2024. It's a for-profit corporate home, but the staffing and retention figures don't read like one.

Five deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection completed in September 2025. As a nonprofit with 64 certified beds, it's small enough that consistency is easier to hold onto, and the numbers suggest it does.

Villa Maria West runs on a nonprofit, church-affiliated model, and the numbers back up what that structure often buys: nurses deliver 5.23 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and staff turnover sits at 25% against a national figure near 46%. Ten deficiencies appear on the current record, but none involve harm or jeopardy, and none are abuse-related, which matters more than the raw count. The last inspection was recent, in September 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekday levels, a gap worth asking about directly if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays.

The trade-off is in inspections: a three-star health inspection rating and 24 deficiencies on the current record, though none at the harm level and none abuse-related.

The inspection record is thin: two deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. The most recent inspection was in May 2026. As a nonprofit, there's no owner extracting a margin.
