Bethel Health Care Center runs on 4.91 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home. That time holds up reasonably well on weekends, dipping about 14% below its own weekday level, and only 31.3% of staff left last year against a national average near 46%. The inspection record is clean where it counts: five deficiencies total, none involving harm or jeopardy and none tied to abuse, with the most recent survey in December 2024. Three straight five-star ratings across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, run by a nonprofit corporation, describe a home that is well-staffed, stable, and currently in good standing.

Community Hospital Onaga Ltcu runs about 5.73 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 48% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip about 20% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 30%, well under the 45.8% national figure, and no deficiencies on its current record involve harm, jeopardy, or abuse. This is a small 26-bed nonprofit home in Pottawatomie County with a clean inspection history, last surveyed in October 2024. The staffing cushion and low turnover matter more than the nine total deficiencies, which are all lower-level. For a family weighing care here, the numbers point to consistent coverage and stable workers.

Villa St Francis in Olathe runs on Catholic nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers show it: 5.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 46% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, though 25.9% annual turnover is well under the national 45.8%, a stable crew by industry standards. The trade-off sits in inspections: 25 deficiencies on the current record, one abuse-related, none at harm or jeopardy level, with the last survey dated December 31, 2024. CMS scored staffing and quality measures 5 out of 5, inspection 3 out of 5. Plenty of attention per resident, a recent survey, and paperwork problems that didn't rise to actual harm.

Southwind At Spearville runs on an unusually steady crew for a nursing home its size. Nurse staffing sits near 4.78 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekday levels, a gap that typically signals a home isn't scrambling to fill shifts. Annual turnover of 10% is strikingly low next to the national 45.8%, which matters more than any single inspection score, since aides who stay tend to know residents' routines. The tradeoff: 13 deficiencies on the current record, including one abuse-related finding, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. State inspectors last visited in January 2026, so the picture is current.

Dooley Center runs 44 certified beds in Atchison under nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.02 hours per resident day, roughly 4% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday levels, which is common but still worth knowing if you're planning visits or worrying about Saturday care. Annual turnover is 33.3%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Ten deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in October 2025.

Larksfield Place runs on lean, steady staffing: 4.55 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average, and weekend coverage drops only about 9% from weekday levels, so care doesn't thin out much on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 33.9% against a national average near 46%, which means the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in October 2024. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders. The numbers describe a home that is well-staffed, stable, and currently clear of serious findings.

Leonardville Nursing Home runs on unusually deep staffing for a 55-bed nonprofit, 5.10 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage only dips about 13% below weekdays, which is a smaller drop than many homes show. Staff turnover sits at 34.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people here tend to stay. The tradeoff is a longer paper trail: 12 deficiencies on record, one abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. A clean five-star inspection rating and a recent October 2024 survey back that up.

Moundridge Manor runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership and 4.86 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 17% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover is 19.8%, less than half the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The record isn't spotless: seven deficiencies, two of them at harm or jeopardy level, and one fine of $20,295. No abuse citations, and the last inspection was September 2024. Strong staffing and low turnover are doing real work here; the harm-level findings are the part to raise directly with the administrator.

Wesley Towers runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, 4.00 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 41.9% versus 45.8% nationally. The tradeoff shows up on weekends, when coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday afternoon. Its last inspection was in March 2026, and the record shows 12 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. A nonprofit corporation operates the 52-bed home.

Mount St. Mary is a small nonprofit home in Wichita, just 24 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the story here. At 5.08 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about a third above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only slightly below its own weekday level, which is better than many homes manage. Staff turnover sits at 31%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The 14 deficiencies on record include none at the harm level and none related to abuse, and the most recent inspection was in March 2025. For a family weighing a move, the picture is steady hands and recent oversight.

Bethesda Home in Goessel runs on a nonprofit model with 57 certified beds, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 3.85 hours per resident day, essentially level with the national average of 3.86, though weekend coverage drops about 16% below what the home provides on weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs care on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is the standout: 31.6% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning caregivers here tend to stay. Five deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in March 2025.

Bethel Home sits in Montezuma, Kansas, a 56-bed nonprofit run by a church group. The numbers that matter most here are the people: nurses provide 4.58 hours of care per resident each day, roughly 19 percent above the national average, and only 28.6 percent of staff leave annually against a national rate near 46 percent. That kind of retention usually shows up in how consistently residents see the same faces. Inspections in January 2025 turned up 15 deficiencies, including one causing harm and one tied to abuse, so there's real room for improvement despite the strong staffing and quality ratings. Weekend coverage dips about 13 percent below weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits then.

Staff turnover

Serious cites

Anderson County Hospital Ltcu runs 3.94 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, and its staffing rating reflects that. The catch is weekends, when hours drop roughly 18% below the home's own weekday level, that's when gaps tend to show up. Turnover sits at 44.7%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, so the crew is comparatively stable. Inspections in February 2025 turned up 16 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none were abuse-related. For a 36-bed nonprofit hospital-based unit, the day-to-day numbers look reasonable; the weekend dip and those two harm-level findings are what pull the overall picture down.

Lawrence Presbyterian Manor runs 40 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.83 hours per resident day, roughly half again what the typical American nursing home provides. Weekend coverage dips only slightly below weekday levels, so care doesn't thin out much when families visit. What pulls against that picture is turnover: 53.7% of staff leave each year, well above the 45.8% national figure, and the home carries 15 deficiencies on its current record, one tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. Its last inspection was in February 2026, and CMS rates it 3 of 5 on health inspections but 4 of 5 on both quality measures and staffing.

Bethany Home Association runs a lean, well-staffed operation. At 5.34 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 38% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 34% beats the national 45.8%, people tend to stay. The 20 deficiencies on record sound like a lot until you notice none reached harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, so they read more like paperwork and process issues than resident safety problems. Weekend staffing dips roughly 14% below its own weekday level, which is common but worth asking about. A 4-out-of-5 health inspection star and a recent August 2024 survey round out a picture of a nonprofit that's stable and adequately watched.

Good Samaritan Society - Hays runs 4.06 nurse hours per resident per day, a bit above the national average, and its weekend coverage dips about 13% below weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 28.8% against a national 45.8%, which matters because familiar faces tend to know residents' routines. The inspection record is recent (February 2025) and clean at the harm level: 23 deficiencies total, none causing harm or jeopardy, though one is abuse-related, so ask how that was resolved. Ownership is nonprofit corporate, and the staffing and inspection ratings both come in at five stars.

Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover lands at 40.5%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. Inspections in August 2025 turned up 14 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related citation, so the four-star inspection rating comes with real findings attached.

Eastridge runs a tight ship on staffing hours, 5.34 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its quality measure score is perfect. But the inspection record tells a harder story: 12 deficiencies logged, two of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, and a health inspection score of 1 out of 5. A $12,798 fine and a 53.8% turnover rate, above the national average, suggest the people providing that care don't stay long. Weekend coverage drops about 17% below weekday levels. With 28 beds and nonprofit ownership, this is a small home where the clinical numbers look strong but the oversight record raises real questions worth asking on a visit.

Weekend coverage dips about 7 percent below its own weekday level, so the strong overall number isn't perfectly even across the week. The inspection history carries 20 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, though none involve abuse, and the most recent inspection was May 2026. The quality measure rating comes in at the top of the scale, while staffing lands mid-range and health inspections sit just above it.

Caritas Center is a small nonprofit home in Wichita, just 22 certified beds, and its nursing hours run about 58% above the national average, with turnover at 14.3% against a national 45.8%. That combination is rare: plenty of homes staff up, but few keep the same people. Weekend coverage dips roughly 18% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. The inspection record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last survey was in March 2026. Quality measures sit in the middle of the pack.
