Nurse hours

Staff turnover
35%

Upland Hills runs on unusually deep staffing for a 44-bed home, 5.52 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, a gap of roughly 43%. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 34.6%, meaningfully under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether aides know your mother's habits. The trade-off shows in the record: seven deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, alongside a four-star health inspection and a recent January 2026 survey. Nothing here suggests abuse. The weak spot is quality measures at three stars.

Westland House is a small nonprofit home in Monterey, 28 beds, and the raw staffing number looks strong at 5.17 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only slightly below weekdays, and turnover at 44.4% is basically in line with the national figure. Where it gets interesting: the federal staffing star comes in at just 1 out of 5, which suggests the mix of RN versus aide hours matters more than the total. The inspection record is solid, 13 deficiencies, none causing harm and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in September 2025.

Serious cites
0

Saratoga Retirement Community Health Center runs 4.32 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 12% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 23.9% is about half the national rate of 45.8%, two numbers that tend to matter more than anything else for day-to-day care. Weekend staffing dips about 7% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family member needs more hands-on help on Saturdays and Sundays. The record shows 20 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in January 2025. As a nonprofit with a 5-star health inspection rating, the pattern here is steady rather than spotless.

Laurel Creek runs a leaner ship than most. At 5.12 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about a third above the national average, and its staff retention is unusually strong, 28.6% turnover against a national 45.8%, which usually means residents see the same faces instead of a rotating cast. Inspectors were last in on April 17, 2026, and the home carries 27 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level; there's also a single fine of $35,493. Weekend coverage dips roughly 13% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays. This nonprofit's numbers point to solid care with a few real dents.

Serious cites

Covenant Village Care Center runs about 4.29 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 11 percent above the national average, and its staff turnover of 30.9 percent sits well below the 45.8 percent typical elsewhere. Weekend coverage dips about 12 percent below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. The 18 deficiencies on record include one abuse-related finding, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was in June 2025. As a nonprofit with four out of five stars on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, the numbers point to steady care rather than a standout or a concern.

Samarkand runs about 4.38 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 13% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 34.8% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, that combination matters more than any single number, since consistent caregivers who stay tend to know residents' routines. Weekend staffing dips about 11% below weekdays, which is common but worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in January 2026, so the survey history is current and free of serious findings.

Staff turnover

Querencia At Barton Creek runs 42 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing number is the one worth noticing: 4.74 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average. Weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets covered. Annual turnover sits at 43.6%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, meaningful in a field where replacing nurses constantly tends to show up in daily care. The inspection record isn't spotless: eight deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one $13,500 fine. No abuse citations. The last inspection was December 2025. Strong staffing, decent turnover, and one incident that deserves a direct question.

Serious cites

The Stayton At Museum Way runs on a nonprofit model with 46 certified beds, and its staffing tells a real story: 4.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average. That said, weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday levels, so care can thin out on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 37.8%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stick around. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record, 24 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in November 2025. Strong quality scores and steady staffing, but that deficiency count is worth asking about directly.

Mrc The Crossings runs a tight ship on nearly every measure that matters. The nonprofit home puts 4.35 nursing hours behind each resident daily, roughly 13% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 39.1% sits well under the typical 45.8%, a signal that caregivers tend to stay. One deficiency on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, and a December 2024 inspection round out the picture. The one soft spot: weekend staffing dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so ask how coverage looks on Saturdays and Sundays. Otherwise, the numbers here are about as clean as they come.

St. Paul's Towers runs on 4.22 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 9% above the national average, and its weekend staffing dips about 15% below its own weekday levels, a gap worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. The turnover number is the standout: 23.3% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning far fewer caregivers cycle through than at the typical home. Twenty deficiencies sit on the current record, but none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in September 2024. As a nonprofit, it has no shareholder pressure driving census or cost decisions.

Fonda Specialty Care runs leaner on nurse hours than the national average, about 3.33 per resident day, roughly 14% under, and weekends dip about 16% below its own weekday coverage, so staffing thinness is real, not a rounding error. What offsets it: turnover at 23.1% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay, which matters more for daily consistency than raw headcount. The 14 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, and the last inspection was in March 2026.

Staff turnover

Serious cites
0

Sibley Specialty Care runs 46 beds as a nonprofit, and the numbers that stand out most are on the workforce side: staff turnover of 27% sits well under the national 45.8% average, which suggests people tend to stay. Daily nurse staffing of 3.40 hours per resident is about 12% under the national figure, though, and weekends run roughly 16% lighter than weekdays, so coverage isn't uniform. Ten deficiencies appear on the current record, two tied to abuse and none at the harm level, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. The quality and staffing ratings are both strong; inspections are the softer spot.

Old Brownlee runs on 4.78 nurse hours per resident day, about a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home. That cushion matters less on weekends, when hours drop roughly 18% below the weekday pace, worth asking about if your family visits then. Staff turnover sits at 39.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still meaning four in ten caregivers left within a year. The record shows eight deficiencies, none causing harm, though two involve abuse, which you should ask about directly. A July 2025 inspection and 4s and 5s across the federal star ratings round out a nonprofit home performing above average.

Serious cites

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.

Crestview runs on nonprofit ownership in Bryan, and the numbers behind its A grade start with staff who stay. Annual turnover of 10% is remarkably low next to the 45.8% national figure, and total nurse staffing of 4.29 hours per resident day sits about 11% above the national average. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 18% below the home's own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Eight deficiencies on record, one at the harm level, none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025.

Nurse staffing at Brookside runs 4.16 hours per resident day, about 8 percent above the national average, and the 5/5 staffing star reflects that. Turnover is the standout number: 28.2 percent against a national average near 46 percent, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents. Two dozen deficiencies sit on the current record, but none rose to harm or jeopardy, only one is abuse-related, and the most recent inspection closed in April 2026. Weekend coverage dips roughly 10 percent below weekday levels, a common pattern worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays or Sundays. As a nonprofit, this San Mateo home has the staffing depth and inspection record that most facilities don't.

Nurse staffing at The Terraces at Los Altos runs about 41 percent above the national average, 5.45 hours per resident day, and that shows up in a five-star staffing rating. The catch is weekends, when hours drop roughly 14 percent below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 47.1 percent, slightly worse than the national 45.8, and inspectors have logged 38 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level and the last full inspection was recent, in August 2025. For 30 beds, that's a lot of regulatory paperwork for a small home.

Woods Health Services runs a nonprofit operation with 74 beds in La Verne, and the staffing numbers are genuinely above average: 4.74 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 23% over the national figure. Staff turnover sits at 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national rate, which suggests people stick around longer here than at many places. The trouble is the inspection record. Sixty-four deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a two-out-of-five health inspection rating and a May 2026 inspection date. Quality measures score five out of five, but that's self-reported data, and it doesn't cancel out what surveyors actually found in the building.

The Suites at Clermont Park runs 4.47 nursing hours per resident day, about 16 percent above the national average, and its staff turnover of 36.8 percent sits well below the 45.8 percent national figure, a sign people tend to stay. Weekend staffing dips roughly 13 percent from weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your visits land on Saturdays or Sundays. State inspectors were last in on February 18, 2026, and the home carries 13 deficiencies on its current record, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse. Ownership is nonprofit. The one harm-level citation is the detail I'd want explained before deciding anything.

Continuing Care At Wind Crest runs a 44-bed nonprofit home in Highlands Ranch, and its staffing is the headline: 5.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 48.5%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, so continuity of caregivers isn't guaranteed. The inspection record is strong, the most recent look was in August 2024, with seven deficiencies logged, none causing harm or jeopardy and none related to abuse.
