Deupree Cottages runs on a small scale, 24 certified beds under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers reflect that attention. At 5.39 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 40% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage stays within about 10% of its weekday level, so care doesn't thin out when families tend to visit. Staff turnover tells its own story: 15.8% against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses are staying put, which matters for residents who depend on familiar faces. Thirteen deficiencies on record with none at the harm level and none abuse-related, plus a July 2025 inspection, round out a picture of a home that's both well-staffed and recently reviewed.
Ohio Living Llanfair runs a small 36-bed nonprofit home in Hamilton County, and the staffing numbers are the story here. At 5.28 nurse hours per resident day, it's well above the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 14% from weekdays, less than many places manage. Staff turnover sits at 28.2%, noticeably below the national rate, which matters for consistency of care. On the record: 14 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The most recent inspection was December 31, 2025, so the picture is current. For a family weighing options, the staffing depth and low turnover are the real signals behind the A.
Nurse staffing at Courtyard At Seasons runs about 4.19 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, and the weekend dip is fairly modest at around 8% below weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 27.7%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters for consistency of care. On the inspection side, the home carries 23 deficiencies, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and one abuse-related finding. The most recent inspection was September 2025, so the record is current. A 45-bed for-profit LLC with that staffing margin and low turnover is doing better than most on the things families notice day to day.
Twin Towers runs on 5.06 nurse hours per resident day, well above the 3.86 national average, and its weekend staffing only dips about 8% below weekdays, a smaller drop than many homes show. Staff turnover sits at 51%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, so that's the soft spot. Inspections found 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. The last full inspection was February 2026, so the record is current. Nonprofit ownership, strong marks on quality measures, and nurse coverage that genuinely exceeds the norm are what's carrying this one.
Marjorie P Lee Retirement Community runs on unusually heavy nurse staffing for a nursing home, 5.30 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national figure. Weekend coverage dips only slightly from weekday levels, and turnover sits well under the national rate, which matters because stable caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The trade-off is a recent record with four deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. Inspectors were last in on January 29, 2026, so the picture is current, not stale. As a nonprofit with 88 beds, it isn't chasing volume; the numbers suggest a home placing real weight on direct care, with one inspection finding worth asking about directly.
Twin Lakes runs on 5.74 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average of 3.86, and it carries a five-star staffing rating and a five-star inspection record to match. Three deficiencies sit on the current record, none of them at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection dated June 2024. Weekend staffing dips about 13% below its own weekday level, so ask how weekends actually look on the floor, and turnover of 40.7% is lower than the national 45.8% but still means a good share of the staff you meet will be new within a year. Nonprofit ownership, 43 beds, and a quality measure rating of 3 out of 5 round out the picture.
Mt Healthy Christian Home runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 75-bed nonprofit, just under 5 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 29% above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekdays. That's the kind of consistency that matters when a resident needs help on a Sunday night. Inspections back it up: a perfect health inspection record and no abuse deficiencies, with the most recent visit in October 2024. Two things keep this from being a clean sweep. Staff turnover sits at 51.4%, above the 45.8% national average, which can wear on continuity of care. And of seven deficiencies on record, one rose to the harm level. Worth asking the administrator how they're addressing both.
Glen The sits in Cincinnati and runs 54 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership. The numbers that matter here are mostly good: a five-star health inspection record with just nine deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, last surveyed in December 2025. Nurse staffing averages 4.04 hours per resident day, a bit above the national figure, though weekends drop roughly 12 percent below weekdays and overall staffing earns only three stars. Turnover at 43.3 percent edges just under the national rate. So you're looking at a small home that inspects cleanly and staffs slightly above average in total hours, with a weekend dip and middling staffing depth keeping it from the top tier.
Maple Knoll Village sits in Cincinnati with 80 certified beds and a nonprofit owner, and its inspection record is decent, 21 deficiencies total, though one reached harm-or-jeopardy level and one was abuse-related. The bigger issue is staffing: 3.54 nurse hours per resident day runs about 8% below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 46.9%, slightly above the national 45.8%. Federal quality measures score well and the last inspection was December 2023, so nothing here looks recent or unresolved. What you're weighing is a home that inspects fine but runs leaner on direct care than most.
Western Hills Retirement Village runs 110 certified beds in Cincinnati under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits just below the national average, 3.80 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally. That gap is small, but weekends get thinner still, running about 9% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. The current inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though two are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. Staff turnover of 45.2% is essentially the national rate. Inspectors were last in on October 24, 2024. Quality measures score well; the staffing picture is where the tradeoff lives.
Cottingham Retirement Community runs 60 certified beds in Cincinnati under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the first thing that stands out: 2.99 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter below. Weekends dip about 9% under its own weekday numbers, and turnover sits at 47.7%, a bit above the national 45.8%. The inspection record is where the trouble concentrates, 19 deficiencies on file, including one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated February 2026. Quality measures score well, but the health inspection and staffing ratings both sit at two out of five, which is what pulls the overall picture down.
Triple Creek runs 3.61 nurse hours per resident per day, about 7% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 17% below its own weekday staffing. That thin weekend coverage is worth asking about directly, since aides and nurses are hardest to replace then. Annual turnover sits at 47.1%, slightly above the 45.8% national figure, so expect some unfamiliar faces on the floor.
The inspection record is cleaner than the staffing numbers suggest: 19 deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. Quality measures score well. The tension here is real, good clinical outcomes and a recent clean inspection, carried by a for-profit corporation on staffing hours below average. Ask how they cover a weekend call-out.
Wellspring Health Center runs 54 beds in Cincinnati under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, with weekends running roughly 10% thinner than weekdays. That gap matters because staffing is thinner exactly when families tend to visit and when backup is hardest to call in. Staff turnover is 58.1% against a national 45.8%, and the inspection record shows 32 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy. The last inspection was in December 2025, so it's current, and there's one fine on record for $110,468. Quality measures look strong; the inspection and turnover numbers are the ones worth asking about directly.
The Arc At Cincinnati runs 3.56 nurse staffing hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 17% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are when families tend to visit. Annual turnover hits 58.3% compared to 45.8% nationally, meaning many of the people caring for residents are still learning the building. The current inspection record carries 85 deficiencies, including 7 at harm or jeopardy level and 8 tied to abuse, with $233,690 in federal fines. CMS has placed this for-profit LLC home in its Special Focus Facility program, and its last inspection was December 2025.
