All 7 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Marietta,
side by side on the things that separate them: how many nursing hours each resident gets, how much of the
staff leaves each year, and what inspectors found on their last visit.
A.g. Rhodes Home in Marietta runs on real staffing depth, 4.59 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping only about 12% below its own weekday level. That's better than most homes manage. Turnover sits at 32.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 15 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, and three tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was December 2025. A nonprofit with a 4-star inspection rating and steady staffing, but the harm-level and abuse findings are the part of the file a family should ask about directly.
Autumn Breeze runs lean on nursing hours, 3.34 per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in a 2-star staffing rating, even though the home keeps its people: 23.2% turnover against a 45.8% national average, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces than most places. The inspection record is mixed. Twelve deficiencies sit on file, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, but the most recent inspection was March 2026 and the health and quality ratings both come in at 4 stars. Corporate-owned and licensed for 109 beds, this is a home where consistency and care measures look better than raw staffing depth.
East Cobb Center runs lean on nursing hours, 3.57 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends thin out further, dropping about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for your family member are cycling through faster than average. The current record shows 11 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the most recent inspection was in August 2025. Clinical quality measures score well, but the staffing picture is the weakest part of this home's profile. Worth asking how they cover weekend shifts and how many aides have been there more than a year.
Pruitthealth - Marietta runs 2.94 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less hands-on time than the typical home. That gap shows up in the staffing rating, and weekend coverage dips about 8% below what the building manages Monday through Friday. Turnover sits at 56.8%, well past the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care are often new. The current inspection record carries 18 deficiencies, including two at the harm-or-jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $8,948 in fines. A February 2026 inspection is recent enough to reflect present conditions. Corporate-owned and for-profit, it earns top marks on quality measures but struggles where it counts most: enough consistent staff.
Roselane Health Center By Harborview runs 137 certified beds in Marietta under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.81 nurse hours per resident day. That looks close enough on paper, but weekends run about 14% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your relative gets depends heavily on which day it is. Inspectors have logged 25 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and one tied to abuse, which helps explain the middling inspection score and the $6,682 fine on file. Turnover at 27.1% is genuinely better than the 45.8% national figure, though, staff here tend to stay longer than at the typical home.
Tower Road Post Acute runs 138 beds in Marietta under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the weak spot: 3.25 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% under the national average, with weekends roughly 15% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 58.3% against a national 45.8%, so aides and nurses are cycling out faster than residents can get to know them. The health inspection record shows 32 deficiencies, none at harm level but one abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was January 2026. Quality measures score well, but staffing is what families feel day to day, and that's where the numbers fall short.
Marietta Center For Nursing And Healing runs 154 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.27 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, with weekends about 10% thinner than weekdays. That shortfall shows up in the CMS staffing rating of 1 out of 5. Turnover sits at 63.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for your relative are fairly new to the building. The current inspection record carries 30 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. State surveyors were last in on June 15, 2025.
