Highlandspring Of Ft Thomas runs a 140-bed for-profit operation in Campbell County, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.25 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average. That cushion matters, though weekends dip about 21% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the weekday numbers aren't the whole story.
Turnover is 48.3%, a bit higher than the national 45.8%, and the home carries 9 deficiencies on its current record with none at the harm level and none abuse-related. Its last inspection was February 2026, so the record is recent. Nothing here looks alarming; the staffing edge is real, but the weekend drop and above-average turnover are worth asking about directly.

St Elizabeth Ft Thomas runs a small 20-bed unit as a nonprofit, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, five stars, one deficiency on the books, none involving harm or abuse, and the last survey was in January 2025. The catch is staffing, which scores one star. That's the number to press on when you visit: ask what nurse and aide coverage looks like on nights and weekends, because a single deficiency total means little if there aren't enough hands on shift. Quality measures land mid-range at three stars. With this few beds, staffing can change fast, so ask for current numbers rather than trusting the rating alone.

Carmel Manor has enough nurses on paper, about 4.03 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but that's the only number here that isn't alarming. Staff turnover sits at 79% against a national average near 46%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year, and weekend coverage drops about 7% below weekday levels. The inspection record is worse: 38 deficiencies, 11 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and 5 tied to abuse, with $305,116 in fines and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. That program exists for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care, not a single bad survey.
