All 3 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Edwardsville,
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.
Kaw River Care and Rehab runs 45 certified beds in Edwardsville under for-profit LLC ownership, and the direct-care hours tell a familiar story: 3.56 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 14 percent below the home's own weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 58.1 percent, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people showing up on Saturday are often the newest hires. The inspection record is the heavier problem, 48 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a 2/5 health inspection rating and 1/5 on quality measures. The most recent inspection was in May 2025.
Parkway Operator runs 45 beds in Edwardsville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out: 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, with weekends about 10% lighter than weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 51.2% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses cycling through are changing faster than typical. The current inspection record carries 20 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none are abuse-related; the last survey was August 2024. Federal ratings land at three stars for health inspections and quality measures, two for staffing.
Edwardsville Care And Rehab runs on 2.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 42% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover is 22%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay. The trouble is what inspections found: 36 deficiencies on the current record, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 2 abuse-related, plus $47,163 in fines across three penalties, with the last inspection in August 2024. Resident outcome measures score well, but the health inspection side is where the risk sits.
