Wesley Woods At New Albany runs just 16 certified beds under church-related nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers stand out: 7.12 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 84 percent above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 18 percent below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 46.4 percent, essentially matching the national 45.8 percent. Twelve deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in June 2025. Small, well-staffed, and inspected recently, the tradeoff is that a 16-bed home has little room to absorb a bad week.

Staffing is where Otterbein New Albany falls short. The federal staffing rating sits at 1 out of 5, and that shows up against a national average turnover of 45.8%, this home's 41% is slightly better, but not by enough to offset thin direct-care coverage. The inspection record is heavier: 58 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the most recent survey completed February 26, 2026. Quality measures land mid-range at 3 out of 5, so clinical outcomes are steadier than the staffing picture. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders, which can mean more patience for fixes, but the numbers here still need watching.

Smiths Mill runs a corporation-owned home of 58 beds where the care numbers pull in two directions. The clinical quality scores look strong, but staffing sits at 3.57 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays, and more than half the nursing staff turns over each year, 56.7% versus 45.8% nationally. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 51 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, and a two-star health inspection rating. None of those reached actual harm, and the last survey was recent, in April 2026. Consistency of caregivers is the question mark here.
