Shirley Chapman Sholom Home East runs on unusually heavy nurse staffing, 5.21 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its staff tend to stay, with turnover at 30.1% against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays. The trade-off sits in its inspection record: 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with the most recent state visit in April 2025. Strong daily care numbers, a thinner margin on compliance.

Lakewood Health System in Staples runs on 4.41 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 34.3% is well below the 45.8% national figure, people tend to stay here. The tradeoffs show up in two places: weekend staffing dips about 12% below weekday levels, and the current record carries 8 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related. A February 2026 inspection is recent, so the picture is current rather than stale, and the nonprofit ownership removes some of the pressure that drives short-staffing elsewhere. Strong on paper, with a couple of specific things worth asking about directly.

Knute Nelson Care Center in Alexandria runs about 4.16 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, and weekend staffing drops about 14% from its weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 29.1% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The home carries 13 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. Its last inspection was May 13, 2026, and it's a nonprofit, which matters for how dollars get allocated. All three CMS star ratings land at 5/5. Worth asking about that one abuse-related citation and how weekends are covered.

Jones Harrison Residence runs on a nonprofit model with 120 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the clearest thing about it: 4.71 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average, with a 5/5 CMS staffing rating to match. Turnover sits at 28.4%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters more than any single inspection score. Weekend coverage dips about 8% from its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Sundays. The record shows 29 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though four are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The last inspection was in January 2026.

Haven Homes Of Maple Plain carries a rare set of marks: five stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing. The numbers behind that are real, not decorative. Nurse staffing runs 4.65 hours per resident day, roughly 20 percent above the national average, and staff turnover sits at 29.3 percent against a national figure near 46 percent, a workforce that mostly stays put. Weekend coverage dips about 11 percent below weekday levels, worth knowing if you visit Saturdays. The inspection record shows three deficiencies, none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, with the most recent survey dated May 2026. It's a 64-bed nonprofit, small enough that consistency is easier to hold.

Aurora On France sits in Edina with 65 certified beds and a nonprofit, corporate owner. The staffing number is the headline: 6.27 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 62% above the national average, and a 5/5 staffing star. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, but even that floor stays high. Turnover runs 29.1% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that care tend to stay. The trade-off is inspections, 22 deficiencies on record, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy, and the last survey was in May 2026. Quality measures score 4/5. Plenty of hands and stable staff, with paperwork issues worth asking about directly.

Lutheran Senior Services At Meramec Bluffs runs a small operation, 32 certified beds in Ballwin, and it's staffed like a place that intends to keep them. At 5.25 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 36% above the national average of 3.86, and its 27.1% turnover is well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. The tradeoff is weekends, when staffing drops about 14% below its own weekday level. The inspection record is strong: a 5-star health inspection rating, eight total deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, and a survey completed in October 2024. One abuse-related deficiency is on the record, so ask about it directly. Church-affiliated nonprofit ownership, and quality measures land at 4 stars.

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.

Lions Gate runs on a nonprofit model with 110 certified beds in Voorhees, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stands out: 5.61 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 45% above the national average. That level holds up reasonably well on weekends too, dipping only about 6% below its own weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 34.5%, which is meaningfully below the national rate of 45.8%, people tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 14 deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but one abuse-related citation, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. Quality measures rate well above average; the health inspection side is more middling.

Winchester Gardens runs about 5.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 42 percent above the national average, and its weekend staffing only dips about 7 percent below weekdays, a small gap compared to many homes. Turnover sits at 37.9 percent against a national 45.8, so more of the same caregivers tend to stay. Inspectors found 11 deficiencies, none causing harm or involving abuse, and the last visit was recent, in September 2025. With 30 beds and nonprofit ownership, the numbers point to a home that is well staffed and currently in good standing rather than one coasting on reputation.

Northwell Health Stern Family Center in Manhasset runs on a nonprofit model with 256 certified beds, and the numbers tell a fairly steady story. Nurse staffing sits at 4.99 hours per resident day, roughly 29% above the national average of 3.86, though weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels. Staff turnover comes in at 31.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey from February 2025. Federal ratings land at 3 out of 5 for health inspections but 5 out of 5 on both quality measures and staffing. The weak spot is inspection history, not daily care.

Kendal On Hudson runs a small operation, just 26 certified beds, but the staffing numbers stand out. At 4.49 nurse hours per resident day, it beats the national average of 3.86 by roughly 16%, and weekend coverage dips only about 12% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 16.1% against a national average of 45.8%, which matters more than almost anything else for consistency of care. Nine deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was May 2024. Nonprofit ownership, strong inspection and quality ratings, the picture is steady rather than spectacular, which is usually what you want.

Elizabeth Seton Children's Center runs on a nonprofit model with 169 certified beds, and the staffing numbers stand out right away: 11.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly triple the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels, but that's a modest gap given the overall volume. Staff turnover sits at 22.2%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. Inspections in August 2025 turned up 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though four were abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The quality and staffing ratings both come in at the top of CMS's scale, and the health inspection rating is close behind.

Edgewood Place runs on unusually deep staffing for a 51-bed nonprofit home in Burlington, 5.34 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only slightly below its own weekday levels. That stability shows in the turnover number, which is where a lot of homes fall apart. Eight deficiencies on the current record, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in July 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale. The staffing rating and the inspection record tell a consistent story here. For a family weighing options, the main question isn't whether this home has problems, every home does, but whether the ones it has are minor and whether the people showing up to work keep showing up.

Carol Woods runs 30 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing number stands out: 4.92 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 35.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure. On the inspection side, there are 7 deficiencies on record but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated June 26, 2025. A small nonprofit with strong nurse hours and clean harm-level findings, that combination is uncommon.

Piedmont Crossing runs on about 5.11 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its weekend hours dip only slightly below weekdays, a gap that's usually wider elsewhere. Staff turnover sits at 32.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents' routines. The current record shows three deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the most recent inspection was in April 2026. As a nonprofit with 104 beds, it isn't chasing quarterly returns; the numbers suggest steady, well-staffed care with no serious compliance problems on the books.

Wilkes Regional Medical Ctr Sn runs just 10 beds inside a hospital in North Wilkesboro, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.78 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday level, but turnover of 30.8% is well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The state inspection history is thinner: 14 deficiencies on record, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in April 2025. A 2-out-of-5 inspection rating paired with a 5-out-of-5 quality measure score tells you the care itself measures well even where paperwork and process have drawn scrutiny.

Glenaire runs 7.42 nurse hours per resident day, roughly double the national average, and that staffing shows up in the ratings: five stars each for staffing and quality measures, four for health inspections. Turnover sits at 36.8 percent against a national 45.8, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The current record carries four deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Weekend staffing dips about 9 percent below weekdays, which is common but still a real difference if your family visits on Saturdays. The last inspection was December 31, 2025, so the picture is recent, and as a nonprofit, this home answers to a board rather than shareholders.

St. Aloisius runs on 4.61 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent more than the national average, and its staff tends to stay: turnover is 31.7 percent against a national figure near 46 percent. Weekend coverage dips about 13 percent below weekday levels, which is common but worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows six deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, and none tied to abuse; the most recent look came in April 2026. Church-affiliated nonprofit ownership rounds out the picture. Five stars each on staffing and health inspections, four on quality measures, the numbers back the reputation.
