Staff turnover

Abbey Delray South runs on unusually steady staffing for a Florida nursing home. Nurses provide about 4.16 hours of care per resident each day, roughly 8% above the national average, and only 14.5% of staff left over the past year, the typical U.S. nursing home loses closer to 46%. That continuity matters, though weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 29 deficiencies on the current record, including one abuse-related finding, none rising to harm or jeopardy, and a single $4,963 fine. The most recent inspection was February 2025. The nonprofit owner holds a 2-star health inspection rating against 5-star marks for staffing and quality measures.

Vicar's Landing runs a small 30-bed nonprofit home in Ponte Vedra Beach, and the numbers hold up well. Nurse staffing sits at 5.61 hours per resident day, roughly 45% above the national average of 3.86, which is the kind of margin that shows up in daily care rather than on a brochure. The record is clean: two deficiencies total, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and the last inspection was recent. Turnover at 48% edges slightly past the national 45.8%, and weekend staffing dips about 14% below weekdays, so the one question worth asking is who's actually on the floor on a Saturday.

Westminster Oaks runs a tight ship on the things that are hardest to fake. Its last inspection was in August 2025, and the record shows four deficiencies with none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related. Nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, a hair under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. The number worth noticing is turnover: 29% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning far fewer people are cycling out the door than at the typical home. That kind of retention tends to show up in how consistently residents see the same faces.

Solaris Healthcare Windermere runs on a non-profit model in Orlando with 120 beds, and its inspection record is the strongest thing about it, a five-star health inspection rating with just six deficiencies on the books, only one of which rose to the harm or jeopardy level. That's a clean sheet for a home this size, and no abuse findings at all. Staffing is where it gets more ordinary: 3.70 nurse hours per resident day sits about 4% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 5% below the home's own weekday numbers, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. The offsetting fact is turnover at 15.5%, well under the national 45.8%, the same faces, year after year, which matters more than a decimal.

Pines of Sarasota runs on more nursing time than most homes in the country, 4.20 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That margin matters, though weekends here run about 9% thinner than weekdays, so ask how coverage looks on a Sunday. Staff turnover sits at 41%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. The inspection record shows nine deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. State inspectors last visited in May 2024, and the nonprofit ownership means no shareholder pressure on the budget.

Nurse staffing at Village On The Green runs 4.05 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, and turnover of 42.4% is slightly better than the typical 45.8%. But look closer: weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level, and the current record carries 10 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy. Inspectors were last on site in March 2025. The quality measure rating sits at 5 out of 5, and health inspection and staffing each land at 4, yet a nonprofit with 60 beds scoring well on paper still shows that one harm-level finding and thinner weekend staffing. That gap between ratings and the record is what a C reflects.

Covenant Village runs a leaner floor than average, 3.77 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. What stands out more is retention: 15.3% annual turnover against a national 45.8% means the people caring for your family member tend to stay, which matters for knowing who's in the building. Its 13 deficiencies include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was May 2025. The nonprofit ownership and steady workforce are the real story here, not the letter grade.

Solaris Healthcare Coconut Creek runs on a nonprofit corporate model with 120 certified beds, and its staffing sits at 3.77 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 10% below weekday coverage there, so if you're visiting or calling on a Saturday, expect a thinner floor. The stronger number is retention: 32% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, which suggests caregivers stick around longer than at the typical home. Inspections back that up, 13 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in January 2026.

Canterbury Towers is putting more nurses in the building than most homes can claim, 6.09 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That staffing depth shows up in its five-star staffing rating, and it matters most on weekends, when hours dip about 16% below the home's own weekday pace, which is typical but still worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record is clean where it counts: six deficiencies total, none involving harm or jeopardy, none related to abuse, and the most recent state visit was in July 2025. Turnover sits at 42.3%, a touch better than the national rate. For a 60-bed nonprofit in Tampa, the numbers describe steady, well-staffed care rather than anything flashy.

Cypress Cove runs a tight ship, and the numbers back it up. Five deficiencies on record with nothing at the harm level and no abuse citations is a clean inspection history, and a 4/5 health inspection star with the most recent survey dated April 2026 means the state has looked recently and found little to flag. Staff turnover sits at 34.3%, well under the national 45.8%, that kind of retention usually means people stay because the place is run decently. Where it slips is raw staffing hours: 3.79 per resident day against a national 3.86, and weekends drop about 9% below the home's own weekday pace. Nothing alarming, but if you're touring, ask who's actually on the floor on a Saturday.

Solaris Healthcare Lake City runs 120 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially dead even with the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover is the standout number here: 31.4% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning this home keeps its nurses longer than most. The tradeoff is inspection history. Fifteen deficiencies are on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and CMS has fined the home once for $24,850. Its last inspection was June 6, 2025. Quality measures score well and staffing holds steady, but that harm-level finding is the piece worth asking about directly.

St. Johns Nursing Center sits in Lauderdale Lakes with 181 certified beds and a nonprofit owner. The staffing numbers are its strongest suit: 4.05 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, with a 14.4% turnover rate that's roughly a third of the national 45.8%, a stable crew, which matters more than most families realize. But the inspection record is where it gets bumpy: 28 deficiencies on file, two of them at harm or jeopardy level, and one fine of $25,155, with the last state visit in January 2025. Weekend staffing also dips about 8% below weekday levels. Good people, uneven oversight, worth asking about those two serious deficiencies directly.

Royal Oak Nursing Center sits in Dade City with 120 certified beds, run by a nonprofit corporation. Its nurse staffing comes in at 3.75 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 12% thinner than weekdays, worth knowing if you're planning visits or worried about coverage gaps. Turnover is 41.2%, actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The current record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in March 2024. Quality measures score high. What's behind the strong overall picture is steady staffing, low harm-level findings, and better-than-average retention, not one standout number.

Clermont Health and Rehabilitation Center runs a nonprofit operation with 182 beds, and its record is steadier than most. The 14 deficiencies on file include none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, which matters more than the raw count. On the other hand, nurse staffing sits at 3.35 hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays, so coverage can feel stretched on a Saturday. Turnover is the bright spot: 20.4% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for your relative are more likely to still be there next year. A recent inspection in August 2025 rounds it out.

Harbours Edge runs a tight ship on staffing for a 54-bed nonprofit in Delray Beach. Nurses give about 4.17 hours of care per resident per day, roughly 8% more than the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 12% below weekday levels, which matters because that's when a lot of homes quietly thin out. Turnover sits at 25.9%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 15 deficiencies on the current record, including one abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. That record earned a 3 out of 5 on health inspections, offset by 5s in quality measures and staffing.

Solaris Healthcare Parkway runs a tight ship on retention: 20.8% annual turnover against a 45.8% national average means aides and nurses here tend to stay, which matters more for daily care than almost anything else on a federal report. The tradeoff is raw hours, 3.64 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national figure, with weekends dipping about 9% below the home's own weekday levels. Fifteen deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse, and the last full inspection came in December 2025.

Solaris Healthcare Daytona runs a tight ship on the numbers that matter most. Its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average, and while weekend coverage drops about 8% from weekday levels, that's a modest dip rather than a cliff. The bigger story is who stays: turnover runs at 36.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which means familiar faces are more likely to be there when your family member needs them. Three deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, with a clean five-star inspection and quality rating. As a nonprofit, it isn't chasing quarterly returns. Worth a visit if you're weighing options in Volusia County.

Weekends dip only about 3% below weekday levels, so coverage stays fairly consistent. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection record: 11 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection dated April 2024. Resident outcomes look solid, with a 4-out-of-5 quality measure rating and 4 out of 5 on staffing, while health inspections land at 3. The picture is a well-staffed home with a clean harm record but a blemish worth asking about directly.

The turnover number is the real standout: 28.8% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning far fewer caregivers are cycling through the building than is typical elsewhere. Thirty deficiencies sit on the current record, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated September 2025. This nonprofit has kept its clinical record clean even where state surveyors found paperwork-level problems.

The Good Samaritan Society-Kissimmee Village is a 161-bed nonprofit home where the staff tends to stay: turnover runs 23.2%, roughly half the national average of 45.8%. That stability shows up in the quality measure star rating, which sits at 4 out of 5. But the inspection record is where the trouble is, 22 deficiencies, including 5 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $246,133. Total nurse staffing is 3.42 hours per resident day, about 12% below the national average, and weekends drop another 6% below the home's own weekday level. The most recent inspection was in December 2025.
