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.

Ohio Living Lake Vista runs a tight ship. The Cortland nonprofit has 39 certified beds and enough nurses on hand to deliver 4.42 hours of care per resident each day, roughly 15% more than the national average, and its most recent inspection, in January 2026, left six deficiencies on the books, none of them involving harm, jeopardy, or abuse. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 49%, a touch above the national figure of 45.8%, so continuity of caregivers isn't guaranteed. The numbers say consistent, well-staffed care with room to improve retention.

Nurse staffing at Ohio Living Dorothy Love runs about 4.39 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent above the national average, and that margin matters most on weekends, coverage there drops about 12 percent below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 36.4 percent, well under the national 45.8 percent, which suggests people tend to stay. The 17 deficiencies on file include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none related to abuse, and the most recent inspection came in March 2025, so the record is current. Shelby County's nonprofit home doesn't have a clean sheet, but nothing in it points to danger.

Brookdale Westlake Village runs 60 certified beds in Cuyahoga County under corporate ownership, and the nurse staffing comes in around 4.27 hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average. That number slips on weekends, though, landing about 15% below what the same building provides Monday through Friday, so the coverage your family sees on a Tuesday may not be what shows up on a Sunday. Staff turnover sits at 44.6%, basically level with the national figure, and the home's nine deficiencies include one tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. Its last inspection was October 2024.

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.

Lutheran Home runs about 5.37 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 39% above the national average, that's a real cushion, and it's the number driving the grade here. The catch is turnover: 51.6% of staff left over the year, higher than the 45.8% national rate, and weekend coverage dips about 5% below weekdays. Inspections show 15 deficiencies on record, none rising to harm or jeopardy, though three are abuse-related. The last full inspection was August 2023, so the picture is more than a year old. This is a well-staffed nonprofit with steady quality marks and enough staff to absorb some churn, worth a visit, with questions ready about weekend coverage and that abuse history.

First Community Village in Columbus runs a nonprofit home with 47 beds, and its nurse staffing sits well above what most homes manage, about 5.06 hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86. That's a real edge, though weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage, and turnover runs 51%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 26 deficiencies, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus one fine of $17,610. Its last inspection was June 2025. Quality measures score high; the inspection history is where the caution lives.

Brookhaven runs a tight operation. Nurse staffing sits at 3.92 hours per resident day, just above the national mark, and the 29.9% turnover rate is far better than the 45.8% typical nationwide, that stability matters more than a single good week of coverage, though weekend hours do run about 11% under weekday levels. The inspection record backs it up: 14 deficiencies on file, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey completed in April 2026. For-profit individual ownership doesn't guarantee anything either way, but the numbers here suggest a home that mostly does what it says.

Staffing at Willows At Willard runs a little under four hours of nurse time per resident each day, roughly 4% below the national average, with weekends dipping another 2% below its own weekday pattern. The bigger number is turnover: 32.4% against a national average of 45.8%, which suggests people stay here longer than they do at most homes. State inspectors have cited 13 deficiencies, none reaching harm or jeopardy and none tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection was in April 2026. A for-profit corporation owns the 69-bed building, and quality measures score well above average.

Parkvue Health Care Center runs about 4.27 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, which is the number that matters most for day-to-day care. Weekend staffing dips about 9% below its own weekday level, though, and annual turnover sits at 54.4% against a national 45.8%, so the care is there on paper, with more churn behind it than average. Inspections back that up: a 4/5 health inspection rating, 16 deficiencies on record but none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and a recent March 2026 survey. For-profit corporate ownership, 84 beds. Solid, not spotless.

Brethren Care Village runs 79 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the numbers suggest a home that's been stable for a while. Nurse staffing sits at 4.78 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, though weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 36.2% against a national average near 46%, which matters because consistent caregivers learn residents' routines. Its twelve deficiencies include none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in September 2022, so that record is getting older and could shift at the next survey.

Walnut Hills runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.71 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip only about 9% below its own weekday pace, which is a smaller drop than many places manage. The trade-off shows up in turnover: 52.1% of staff left over the year, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so the people delivering that care keep changing. Its inspection record carries 36 deficiencies, none at the harm level but two tied to abuse, with the last survey in November 2024. Church-affiliated nonprofit ownership and a 5/5 quality measure rating round out the picture.

Cypress Pointe runs about 4.43 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 15% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 31.3% against a national 45.8%, that retention matters more than any single inspection score, since it means the people caring for your relative tend to stick around. Weekends run about 10% leaner than weekdays, so if you visit on a Saturday, expect a slightly thinner crew. The home carries 10 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, but nothing abuse-related, and its last inspection was recent. Corporate for-profit ownership, 70 beds.

Crandall Nursing Home runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.61 per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 19% higher. That staffing edge holds up in the turnover figure too: 34.1% annual turnover versus 45.8% nationally, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces from one month to the next. The tradeoff sits in the inspection record. Twelve deficiencies are on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, even though the last inspection was recent, in March 2026. Weekend coverage also drops about 21% below the home's own weekday level, which matters if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Nonprofit ownership; four stars each for health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

Shepherd Of The Valley Howland runs on 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% more than the national average, and its 4/5 staffing rating backs that up. Weekend coverage dips about 15% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 32.1% against a national 45.8%, which matters for whether you see the same faces. Eleven deficiencies are on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The last inspection was June 2025, and with 4/5 ratings on health inspections and quality measures, this nonprofit's numbers hold up better than most.

Weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 53.1%, higher than the 45.8% national average, which matters in a building this size where one departure is felt. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The most recent inspection was March 2026, so the picture is current.

Ohio Living Westminster-Thurber runs lean on paper in a way that mostly holds up, 5.18 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and that's the main reason it lands where it does. The trouble sits elsewhere. Staff turnover is 58.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, and weekend coverage drops about 13% from weekday levels, so the hours aren't spread evenly. On inspections, 27 deficiencies include one at harm level and six tied to abuse, with a $14,680 fine on record. Quality measures score high; the inspection history is what pulls it down.

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.

The current record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, and two fines totaling $8,090. The last inspection was May 30, 2025, and CMS gives it five stars on health inspections and quality measures, four on staffing. Staffing depth and inspection results are strong here; the turnover rate and those three abuse-related tags are the things worth asking about directly.

Shepherd of the Valley Poland runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership and 32 certified beds, and the numbers mostly back it up. Nurse staffing sits at 4.53 hours per resident day, roughly 17% above the national average, and turnover is 25.8% against a national figure near 46%, that kind of retention matters more than almost anything else for consistent care. The tradeoff is weekends, when coverage drops about 22% below the home's own weekday level, and the inspection record shows 7 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, with no abuse citations. The last inspection was recent, in September 2025. Nothing here looks like a crisis, but that one harm-level finding and the weekend dip are worth asking about directly.
