Serious cites
0

Wyncote Care Center runs 58 certified beds in Montgomery County under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.22 hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average of 3.86. That advantage narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, so the weekday-to-weekend gap matters as much as the yearly figure. The current record shows 23 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, and one fine totaling $4,194. Inspections are recent, dated January 2026, and the three CMS star categories, health, quality measures, staffing, all land at 3 out of 5.

Riverton Rehabilitation has 111 certified beds and is owned by an individual for-profit operator. Its staffing sits at 3.48 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 8% thinner than weekdays, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the interesting part: 26.3% against a national average near 46%, which suggests a steadier crew than most places even if there aren't quite enough of them. Inspections back that up, 11 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in December 2025.

Buffalo Valley Lutheran Villag runs a solid B, and the staffing numbers explain why. At 4.40 nurse hours per resident day, it's about 14% above the national average of 3.86, that's real coverage, though weekends dip roughly 6% below its own weekday level, so ask about Saturday and Sunday shifts specifically. Turnover sits at 47.5%, just above the national 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing staff turns over annually. The 37 deficiencies on record include two abuse-related citations, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, which matters. Inspectors were last on site in September 2025, so the record is fairly current.

Serious cites

Scenery Hills runs 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and its staff turnover of 24.1% is roughly half the national rate, unusual stability for a for-profit limited liability company. The catch is on the health inspection side: 23 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related citation, with the most recent inspection dated May 2026. Weekend staffing also drops about 11% below its own weekday level. Consistent caregivers matter, but a harm-level finding and an abuse citation are the kind of record a family should read closely before deciding.

Serious cites

Wesley Enhanced Living - Doylestown runs 60 certified beds under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely strong: 4.56 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more hands-on help on Saturdays and Sundays. The bigger concern is turnover, 65.3% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents in a given year are relatively new. Inspections look solid: five deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in March 2026.

Serious cites

The Williamsport Home runs 4.14 total nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average of 3.86, a real edge, though weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday levels, so the weekday-to-weekend gap is worth asking about directly. Its 31 deficiencies include zero at the harm or jeopardy level, but two abuse-related citations appear on the record, which is the kind of finding you'd want to understand before deciding. Staff turnover sits at 43%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and the last inspection was recent at January 29, 2026. As a nonprofit, it answers to a mission rather than shareholders, which tends to show up in staffing consistency over time.

49%
Serious cites
0

Sarah Reed Senior Living runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.11 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and that shows up in its four-out-of-five staffing rating. The trade-off is consistency: weekends dip about 9% below weekday coverage, and nearly half the staff turns over each year, slightly worse than the national rate. What stands out more is the inspection record: ten deficiencies on file, none causing harm or involving abuse, and a clean five-star health inspection rating with a visit as recent as December 2025. As a nonprofit with 106 beds, it's a stable operation with real strengths and one soft spot worth asking about.

Oxford Health Center runs on a nonprofit model with 90 certified beds, and its inspection record is genuinely solid, nine deficiencies total, none rising to harm or jeopardy, though two are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. The tradeoff shows up in staffing: 3.70 nurse hours per resident day sits about 4% under the national average, weekends dip another 6% below the home's own weekday coverage, and turnover hits 50% against a national 45.8%. Inspections and quality measures both rate well; staffing rates middle. A recent inspection in March 2026 means the picture is current. Ask about weekend coverage and what those abuse deficiencies involved.

Lutheran Home At Hollidaysburg runs a church-affiliated nonprofit with 89 beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, though weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage. That staffing earns 4 stars from CMS, but the inspection record tells a different story: 39 deficiencies on file, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $101,905. Staff turnover runs 48.2%, a bit above the national 45.8%. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so the record is current. Quality measures score 4 stars; health inspections score 2. Ask about those harm-level and abuse deficiencies specifically.

Courtyard Gardens runs a nonprofit home with 102 beds in Middletown, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national average, 3.84 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationwide. That sounds fine until you notice weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, which is when falls and medication errors tend to happen. Staff turnover is 42%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the last inspection in September 2024 produced 15 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to cause harm, plus one fine of $8,469. The four-star inspection rating is real, but those two harm-level findings and the weekend gap are what pull the overall picture down.

Quadrangle runs 5.34 nurse hours per resident day, about 38% above the national average, and that staffing shows up in its four-star staffing rating. The catch is turnover: 65.7% of staff leave each year, well above the 45.8% norm, so the people delivering that care keep changing, and weekend coverage drops roughly 10% below weekday levels. The inspection record is where it gets harder to defend, 36 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, with a two-star health inspection rating and a $8,278 fine. Its quality measures score four stars, but persistent turnover and a recent April 2025 inspection citing harm-level problems are the things to ask about directly.

Serious cites
0

Lutheran Home At Kane runs on a nonprofit model with 90 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.90 hours per resident day, just a hair above the national average of 3.86. That margin is thin enough that weekend coverage matters: staffing drops about 13% below weekday levels, so care on Saturdays and Sundays may feel different from a Tuesday. Turnover is 37.7%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn among the people doing the daily work. The current deficiency record shows six citations, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in November 2025. Quality measures score lower than staffing and inspection results, so ask about specific clinical outcomes.

Monticello House has the bones of a strong nursing home: a five-star inspection record, five stars on quality measures, and no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, with a clean record on abuse. Its 4.45 nurse hours per resident day sit about 15% above the national average. The problem is stability. Annual staff turnover runs 92.7%, roughly double the national figure, and weekend staffing drops about 11% below the home's own weekday level, so the coverage families tour on a Tuesday isn't quite what a Saturday looks like. A nonprofit owner and a recent inspection help. Whether aides stay long enough to know your mother is the open question.

Concordia At Arbutus Park runs 3.56 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 8% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 46.4%, roughly matching the national figure, so this isn't a retention crisis, it's a coverage question. The current inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, with $16,800 in fines across three events. A 3/5 health inspection rating against 4/5 marks for quality measures and staffing tells you the care model looks better on paper than the surveyor's clipboard. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the record is current.

Christ the King Manor runs on a church-affiliated nonprofit model in Dubois, and the staffing numbers back up the care side: 4.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, with turnover at 25.8% against a national 45.8%. That stability matters, though weekend hours dip about 16% below weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Inspections are recent and clean where it counts, seven deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, which supports the four-star health inspection rating. The weaker spot is the two-star quality measure score, suggesting outcomes tracked through MDS data lag behind the staffing strength. Overall, a solidly staffed home with room to improve on measured care quality.

Phoebe Richland Hcc runs 143 certified beds in Richlandtown under nonprofit ownership, and its inspection record is the strong part: eight deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a recent survey dated February 2026 and four out of five stars for both health inspections and quality measures. Staffing is where it thins out. At 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 13 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 4 percent below its own weekday level. Turnover of 35.7 percent beats the 45.8 percent national figure, which helps, but the daily hours are what families feel. Worth asking how coverage holds on Saturday and Sunday.

Windber Woods is a nonprofit home with 127 beds, and its staffing is the clearest strength here: 4.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 7% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 42.1%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The trouble is the inspection record, 50 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, plus $27,226 in fines across three penalties, with the most recent inspection dated February 2026. That combination of solid staffing and a heavy deficiency history is what pulls the overall picture down to average; the people providing care seem adequate in number, but the survey record says something keeps going wrong.

Nottingham Village runs 121 beds under corporate ownership in Northumberland, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture, 4.04 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, with turnover at 28.6% against a national 45.8%. That retention matters, since consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. Weekends are the soft spot: staffing drops roughly 10% below its own weekday level. The inspection record is where the concerns sit, 31 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, with one fine of $8,018 and a survey completed in November 2025. Families should ask directly how weekend coverage is handled and what changed after those abuse findings.

Wesley Enhanced Living Main Line sits in Media with 60 certified beds and a nonprofit owner. The staffing numbers are the real story here: 4.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, and turnover at 19.4% is unusually low against a national rate of 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 5% from weekday levels, which is a gap worth asking about directly. What holds the record back is the inspection side. Four deficiencies on file, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine totaling $151,457. The last inspection was March 2026. Strong, stable staffing paired with a costly serious deficiency and middling inspection and quality ratings, that mix is what the grade reflects.

Thornwald Home is a church-affiliated nonprofit in Carlisle with 83 certified beds, and its staffing is the clearest strength here: 4.37 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 6% below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 47.4%, slightly worse than the 45.8% national figure. Inspections are another story, 16 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus a single fine of $9,110. The most recent inspection was December 11, 2025, so the record is current. Solid daily staffing, but the deficiency history is what a family should ask about directly.
