Staff turnover
33%

Newport House runs 5.07 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more hands-on care than the national average, and its weekend hours dip only about 11% below weekday levels, smaller than what many homes see. Staff turnover sits at 32.8% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The inspection record shows nine deficiencies with none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related, and the last survey was recent, in January 2026. Quality and staffing both score at the top of CMS's five-star scale while inspections land at three, which fits a nonprofit home that invests heavily in daily care.

Brookestone Village runs on about 4.84 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 33.7 percent against a national 45.8, both signs of a home that can hold onto people. Weekend coverage dips about 11 percent below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Nine deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm level, one tied to abuse; the last inspection was February 2026. As a nonprofit with 140 beds, the numbers point to steady care rather than crisis.

Brookestone Meadows runs on a nonprofit model in Elkhorn with 140 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 4.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more than the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, which is worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. Annual turnover sits at 31.9% against a national average near 46%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Three deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection as recent as April 2025.

St. Jane De Chantal runs on 7.36 nurse hours per resident day, nearly double the national average of 3.86, and that staffing depth shows up in a 5/5 CMS staffing rating. Turnover sits at 32.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care tend to stick around; weekend coverage dips only about 8% from weekday levels, a modest slide rather than a cliff. The trade-off is a 3/5 inspection rating with 11 deficiencies on record, one tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was January 8, 2026. Quality measures score 4/5, and nonprofit ownership rounds out the picture.

Eventide Crete runs on 4.93 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 28% more than the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 38.6% against a national figure near 46%, both of which suggest a stable, well-covered floor. Weekend coverage dips about 14% below weekday levels, which is common but worth knowing if you're visiting or calling on Saturdays and Sundays. The home carries six deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a September 2025 inspection behind those findings. As a nonprofit with 38 beds, it's small enough that you can reasonably ask who actually owns the place and how long the director has been there.

Eventide Williamsburg runs a lean 50 beds under nonprofit ownership, and the care hours show it: 5.89 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly half again the national figure of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 6% below weekdays, so families visiting on a Saturday aren't walking into a skeleton crew. The trade-off sits in retention, 54.2% annual turnover tops the 45.8% national average, meaning aides and nurses cycle through more often than elsewhere. Eight deficiencies appear on the current record with none at harm level, though two are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection closed in December 2025. Strong survey and quality scores, real staffing depth, and a workforce that churns faster than most.

Brookestone Gardens runs on 4.79 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home, and that shows up in a 5/5 staffing rating and a 5/5 quality measure rating. Turnover sits at 35.2%, well under the national 45.8%, though weekends dip about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage. The record isn't spotless: nine deficiencies, one tied to abuse, but none rose to harm or jeopardy, and state inspectors were last in the building in December 2025. As a nonprofit with 54 beds, it's small enough to know its residents, the 3/5 inspection rating is the one number keeping this from looking like a clean sweep.

Brookestone Of David City runs on a nonprofit model with 86 certified beds, and the staffing numbers back it up: 4.20 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average. Weekend coverage does dip about 15% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 30.6%, well under the national 45.8%, people tend to stay. The home's inspection record is clean where it counts, with six deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection came in February 2025. Quality measures land at 4 out of 5 stars, a small step below its staffing and inspection marks.

Southlake Village runs a nonprofit shop in Lincoln with 126 beds, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing: 4.72 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 22% above the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday level, which is common but still worth asking about if your family visits on a Saturday or Sunday. Turnover sits at 34% against a national 45.8%, so the crew here sticks around more than most. Six deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a state inspection completed in November 2025.

Brookestone Of Papillion runs a tight ship on the numbers that matter most. Nurse staffing sits at 4.18 hours per resident day, roughly 8 percent above the national average, though weekends drop about 13 percent below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits mostly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is the standout: 28.7 percent against a national average near 46 percent, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Seven deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with a clean inspection as recently as February 2025. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders.

Highland Park Care Center runs 4.79 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and its staff tends to stay, turnover of 15.5% against a national figure near 46%. Weekend coverage dips about 16% below weekday levels, which is common but still worth asking about, since that's when families often visit and when problems can surface. The home's nine deficiencies include one abuse-related finding, though none rose to the level of harm or immediate jeopardy, and its last inspection was in August 2025. As a nonprofit with 60 beds, it's small enough that you can reasonably expect to know the administrator by name.

Dunklau Gardens runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.43 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and the weekend dip is real but modest. The number that stands out most is turnover: 24.7% against a national average near 46%, which suggests people actually stay. Four deficiencies on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, and the last inspection was in May 2025, so the picture is reasonably current. Quality measures land in the middle of the pack while staffing sits at the top. Nonprofit ownership in Fremont, 106 beds. The weak spot is weekend coverage, not the care record.

The Lighthouse at Lakeside Village runs 5.31 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 38% above the national average, and weekends dip about 13% below its own weekday levels, still well above average, but not the same coverage you'd see Monday through Friday. Staff turnover sits at 47.4%, a touch above the national 45.8%, so continuity of caregivers is a fair question to ask. The record shows 13 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. State inspectors were last in on March 12, 2025, so the picture is current.

St Joseph's Hillside Villa runs on 4.34 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12 percent above the national average, and its staff tends to stay, turnover sits near 37 percent against a national rate closer to 46 percent. Weekend coverage dips about 13 percent below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies with nothing at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last state visit came in March 2025. Resident outcomes land mid-pack on the federal quality measures, while staffing and inspections both sit at the top of the scale.

Nurse staffing at Oglala Sioux Lakota Nursing Home runs 6.77 hours per resident day, roughly 75% above the national average of 3.86, a serious number that separates it from most homes. Staff turnover sits at 35.1%, below the national 45.8%, and the last inspection was recent, December 2025. The concerns are on the record: 20 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related. State surveyors gave three stars for health inspections and three for quality measures, while staffing earned five. Weekend coverage dips about 13% below weekday levels, which matters when aides are already stretched. For families weighing hands-on care against regulatory history, the staffing numbers are the case for this place; the deficiency record is the caution.

Brookestone Acres runs on 4.49 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% more than the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 26.3% against a national rate near 46%, both point to a workforce that mostly stays put. Weekend coverage does dip roughly 17% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies with none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and the most recent survey was in September 2025. As a nonprofit with 80 beds, it's small enough that you can reasonably press administrators on specifics.

Turnover sits at 28.3% against a national average of 45.8%, which matters more than any single inspection score, consistent caregivers know the residents. Weekend coverage dips about 16% below weekday levels, worth asking about directly. The inspection record shows 10 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in February 2026.

Mt Carmel Home in Kearney runs leaner on nursing hours than most places, 6.11 per resident day, roughly 58% above the national average, and that holds up across weekday and weekend shifts, though weekends dip about 13% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 41%, a bit better than the 45.8% typical nationally. The inspection record shows five deficiencies, none rising to harm or jeopardy, but one is abuse-related, worth asking about directly. A January 2026 inspection means the picture is current. Nonprofit ownership and four stars each on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing round out a home that looks steady on paper, with a couple of specific questions worth raising in person.

Eventide Lincoln runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, 5.11 per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's real coverage, though weekends thin out roughly 12% below weekday levels, so the weekday-to-Saturday gap is worth asking about. Turnover sits at 49.6%, a bit above the national 45.8%, which means a good share of the people providing that care are still new to the building. The 22 deficiencies on record include nothing flagged as harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related, and the last full inspection was in December 2024. Its health inspection rating is the weak spot even as quality and staffing measures score well.

Rose Blumkin Jewish Home runs on 4.91 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27% above the national average of 3.86, a real cushion, though weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover sits at 38.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for residents who benefit from seeing familiar faces. The inspection record shows 8 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 2026. As a nonprofit with 105 certified beds, this Omaha home pairs strong staffing with a clean harm-free survey history.
