All 3 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Beachwood,
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.
Daughters of Miriam, a 233-bed for-profit home in Beachwood, runs rich on paper: 5.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 45% above the national average, and top CMS marks for staffing and quality measures. But weekends drop about 22% below weekday staffing, and turnover sits at 54.2% against a 45.8% national average, so that bench is expensive to keep filled. Inspections tell the harder story, a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 48 deficiencies on the current record with 5 at harm or jeopardy level, and a survey as recent as November 2024. Strong daily coverage, shaky oversight. Ask what those harm-level citations involved and how weekend coverage is actually staffed.
King David runs 355 certified beds in Beachwood under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers are a mixed picture. Total nurse coverage of 4.88 hours per resident day sits about 26% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 21% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover hits 63.5% against a national 45.8%, so coverage depends heavily on who's still there. The inspection record is the harder read: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 64 deficiencies including one at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, plus a $10,221 fine. Quality measure scores look strong on paper, but the last inspection closed in September 2025, and the staffing math doesn't erase what surveyors found.
If you're weighing Beachwood Pointe for someone you love, the staffing numbers deserve your full attention. Nurses provide about 3.08 hours of care per resident each day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 7 percent thinner than weekdays. That thin coverage sits alongside a 67.8 percent annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, meaning the people providing care are constantly changing. Inspectors have cited 46 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, and the last visit was July 2024. The resident outcome scores look better than the staffing picture, but the two don't cancel each other out.
