Chapman Healthcare Center, Inc

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
34%
Serious cites

Chapman Healthcare Center runs 4.30 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 11 percent above the national average, and its staff turnover of 33.5 percent sits well below the 45.8 percent national figure, a sign people tend to stay. Weekend coverage dips about 8 percent from weekday levels, which is common but worth knowing if you're visiting Saturday or Sunday. The inspection record shows five deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, though the last full inspection was in September 2021, so that picture is getting old. Quality measure scores come in low even as staffing scores run high, a split worth asking the administrator about directly.

Adams Rehabilitation And Healthcare Center

Staff turnover

Adams Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs on 4.13 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, and weekends dip about 13% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 48.1%, a bit above the national 45.8%, so the faces change fairly often even with the extra hours on the schedule. The inspection record is the strong part: a 5/5 health inspection rating, just four deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. The catch is timing, that last inspection was June 2021, so the clean record is several years old. Quality measures come in at 2/5, which is where the softer numbers show up.

Brown Nursing Home

Staff turnover

Brown Nursing Home runs 68 certified beds in Alexander City under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits slightly under the national average at 3.75 hours per resident day. The bigger issue is who's still there: annual turnover hits 60.7%, well above the 45.8% norm, and weekends drop roughly 17% below weekday coverage. Inspections look solid otherwise, a 4-star health inspection rating, seven deficiencies on record with none tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse. But that inspection happened in February 2020, so it's badly dated. Quality measures come in at 2 stars, which suggests the clinical numbers families actually track aren't keeping pace. Plenty of homes look good on paper until you ask when someone last checked.
