Northridge Village runs lean in a way that mostly works. Nurse staffing sits at 4.37 hours per resident day, comfortably above the national average, and that shows up in its staffing rating. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays.
Turnover is the bigger flag: 54.7% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turned over in a year. Inspections came back recently and cleanly enough, with one deficiency serious enough to register as harm. Six deficiencies total, none tied to abuse.

Green Hills runs on a strong direct-care workforce: 4.53 nurse hours per resident day is about 17 percent more than the national average, and that shows up in a five-star staffing rating. The catch is consistency, weekend coverage drops roughly 13 percent below weekday levels, and turnover sits at 47.1 percent, slightly worse than the national average, so the faces around your family member may change often. Seven deficiencies on record, none involving harm, jeopardy, or abuse, and a January 2026 inspection is recent enough to trust. Quality measures are the weak spot at two stars, which is worth asking about directly even though the care hours look good on paper.

Accura Healthcare of Ames runs 75 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 2.96 hours per resident day, roughly 23% under the national mark of 3.86. Weekends drop about 13% below what the home itself provides on weekdays, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover is 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national average. Inspections show 19 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, none abuse-related. The most recent inspection was April 2026, and CMS gives the home mid-range marks for health inspections and staffing, with a stronger 4 out of 5 on quality measures.
