All 14 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Youngstown,
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.
Heritage Manor runs on 4.86 nurse hours per resident day, about a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home, and its weekend coverage dips only modestly below weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 30.9% against a national average near 46%, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents and catch changes early. The home carries seven deficiencies on its current record with none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and its last inspection was in March 2026. This is a nonprofit operation, so there's no ownership chain pushing toward margin. What stands out across the numbers is steadiness: strong inspection history, solid quality measures, and staffing that holds up.
Windsor Health Care Center in Youngstown runs 58 certified beds under for-profit corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, so if you're planning visits, that gap matters. Turnover is the bright spot at 30%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most places. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Quality measures score well and the last inspection was June 2025, so the picture is reasonably current.
Omni Manor runs on leaner nurse staffing than most homes, 3.34 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. The tradeoff is stability: 35.4% turnover beats the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. What keeps this home from a stronger position is its inspection record: 33 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in August 2024. Strong quality scores and steady staff can't cancel that out, but they do suggest the problems aren't the whole story.
Briarfield At Ashley Circle runs 74 certified beds in Youngstown under corporate, for-profit ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.70 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 18% below what the home staffs on weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs care on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover is 32.1%, which is meaningfully better than the national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 10 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a recent survey in September 2025 and a 4-star inspection rating. Quality measures score lower at 2 stars, so ask what specifically drives that gap.
Briarfield Manor runs 92 beds under corporate ownership in Youngstown, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.72 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 36 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in March 2025. Staff turnover of 46.6% edges just past the national rate of 45.8%. A 2 out of 5 on health inspections against 3s for quality measures and staffing tells you where the problems concentrate.
Liberty Health Care Center runs 110 certified beds in Youngstown under corporate, for-profit ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, slightly under the 3.86 national average, and weekends drop roughly 17% below the home's own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record carries more weight than the staffing picture: 40 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $83,401, with the most recent inspection in March 2026. Turnover at 43.1% actually edges below the 45.8% national rate, which is modestly reassuring, but quality measures score better than the inspection history does.
Austintown Healthcare Center runs 89 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, 20 deficiencies on file with none at the harm or jeopardy level, plus a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating and a perfect 5 on quality measures. Staffing is where the picture shifts: 3.27 nurse hours per resident day sits roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86, weekends run about 8% lighter than weekdays, and 57.6% annual turnover means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, against a national rate of 45.8%. One abuse-related deficiency also appears on the current record.
Lincoln Knolls runs on thin nursing coverage: 3.39 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays. The bigger number is turnover, 77.8% of nursing staff leaving in a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because a building replacing most of its aides annually struggles to keep consistent care. Its inspection record shows 37 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was February 2026. Ownership is for-profit through a limited liability company. The quality measure score looks strong on paper, but it sits alongside a one-star inspection rating, so weigh the paper measures against what surveyors actually cited.
Oasis Center For Rehabilitation And Healing runs 99 certified beds in Youngstown under for-profit limited liability ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, just under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover at 44.9% is essentially the national rate, meaning roughly half the nursing staff leaves within a year. Inspections tell the harder story: 50 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a two-star health inspection rating. The last inspection was January 15, 2026, so the record is recent, not stale.
Shepherd of the Valley-Boardman runs 4.04 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but that average hides a weekend problem, staffing drops roughly 19% below its own weekday level, which is when families tend to visit and notice. Staff turnover sits at 66.7%, well above the national 45.8%, so the people providing that care are changing often. The current inspection record carries 24 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated December 31, 2025. This is a nonprofit operation with solid quality marks, but the inspection history and turnover are the numbers worth asking about directly.
Park Center runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts: 3.70 nurse hours per resident day sits below the national average, weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 58.7% against a national 45.8%. Inspections back that up, a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 60 deficiencies on the current record including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $39,108 fine. The 5-out-of-5 quality measure rating stands out against all of this, but it's built on data the home largely reports itself, so weigh it against the survey findings and the thin staffing rather than in place of them.
Park Vista runs on thin nurse staffing, 3.14 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping further below its own weekday level. That shortfall shows up in the numbers that track workers: 72.5% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, and a one-star CMS staffing rating. The inspection record is heavier still: 63 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $24,876 fine, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. Quality measures rate better at three stars, but the corporate owner's record here is mostly a staffing and compliance story. Families should ask direct questions about who's on the floor on weekends and how long the current director of nursing has been in place.
Canfield Healthcare Center runs 90 beds in Youngstown under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stands out: 3.05 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 12% thinner than weekdays already are. Staff turnover sits at 55.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because that's roughly half the workforce cycling out in a year.
The inspection record is where things get serious. Fifty-four deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, seven tied to abuse, and $211,331 in fines. CMS has placed this home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the poorest performers. The 4/5 quality measure rating reflects resident assessments; the 1/5 on both inspections and staffing tells you what those numbers don't.
Beeghly Oaks is a for-profit LLC home in Youngstown with 115 certified beds, and the numbers here are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, when coverage drops about 14% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover runs 55.8% a year against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents are changing constantly.
The inspection record is the bigger concern: 87 deficiencies, seven serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, and a $187,369 fine. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a pattern of persistent problems.
