Staff turnover

South Orange runs a for-profit limited liability operation with 115 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 4.50 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 17% above the national average, though weekends run roughly 7% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits then. Turnover lands at 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure. Inspections in February 2025 turned up 15 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse, which you should ask about directly. Two fines totaling $14,442 round out the record.

Staff turnover

Solaris Healthcare Apopka runs a tight operation on the things that are hard to fix. Its 27.8% staff turnover sits well under the national 45.8% average, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know their residents and catch problems early. The inspection record backs that up: a five-star health inspection rating, four deficiencies total, none at the harm level, and a recent survey from December 2024. The tradeoff is hours. Nurse staffing at 3.72 hours per resident day lands about 4% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, so if you're visiting on a Saturday, expect a thinner floor than midweek. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company with 120 certified beds.

Solaris Healthcare East Orlando runs about 4.14 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 7% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 35.4% sits well under the national 45.8%, that combination usually means steadier hands on the floor. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops about 11% below the home's own weekday levels, so care may feel thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. Inspectors gave it 4 of 5 stars with 10 deficiencies on record, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related. The last inspection was June 2025, so the picture is current. A for-profit LLC, 110 beds.

Aviata At Rosewood runs 120 beds in Orlando under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.29 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 5% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families tend to visit. Turnover is 42.2%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure. Inspectors cited 34 deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last visit in September 2025. The quality measure stars look strong; the inspection history and below-average staffing are the parts worth asking about directly.

Life Care Center of Orlando runs 4.37 nurse hours per resident day, about 13 percent above the national average. That's a real cushion, though weekend coverage dips roughly 12 percent below what the building does on weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits mostly Saturdays and Sundays. The record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating. State inspectors were last in on December 18, 2025, so the findings are recent. Corporate for-profit ownership and a 5-out-of-5 quality measure score round things out. Strong staffing and clean inspections carry more weight here than the raw deficiency count suggests.

Palm Garden of Orlando runs 132 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the line, 3.81 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 7% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover is the brighter spot: 38.1% compared to the 45.8% national figure, so the people who are there tend to stay. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 16 deficiencies on file, including two at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $73,226. The most recent inspection was November 2024, so that picture is current. Ask about those harm-level findings specifically, and how weekend coverage gets backfilled.

Metro West Nursing and Rehab Center is a for-profit limited liability company home in Orlando with 120 certified beds, and its numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.68 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 10% lighter than weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025, so the findings are current. Staff turnover of 43.2% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care.

Winter Garden Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 8% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is 45.7%, basically identical to the national figure. The current record shows 24 deficiencies, one abuse-related, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. Its quality measure rating is strong at 4 out of 5, but health inspections come in at 2. If you tour, ask directly about weekend nurse coverage and how that abuse citation was resolved.

Parkview runs 3.61 nurse hours per resident each day, about 6% under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 56.1% against a national 45.8%, so nearly six in ten staff left within the year, a churn rate that makes consistent care harder to hold onto. The inspection picture is steadier: 14 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in February 2025. That combination, solid clinical quality measures and a clean harm record, paired with thin weekend coverage and high turnover, is what puts it in the middle of the pack rather than at the top.

Rehabilitation Center Of Winter Park runs 180 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.26 hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 1% below its own weekday level, so the shortfall isn't just a weekend problem. Staff turnover is 47.2%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure. The health inspection record shows 43 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but four are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was August 2024. CMS rates staffing 2 out of 5 stars and quality measures 5 out of 5, a wide split worth asking about directly.

Lake Bennet runs lean on nursing hours, 3.51 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, so a Saturday shift isn't the same as a Tuesday one. The inspection record is the bigger concern: sixteen deficiencies, two serious enough to put residents in harm's way, two tied to abuse, and a $74,744 fine. That combination explains the 2-out-of-5 inspection rating despite a 5-out-of-5 on quality measures, which come from resident assessments rather than surveyor findings. Turnover at 24.2% is genuinely low by national standards, and the most recent inspection was August 2025. It's a for-profit LLC with 120 beds, and the pattern suggests asking direct questions about weekend coverage and how those abuse citations were resolved.

Avante At Orlando runs 118 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.00 hours per resident day, about 4% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real edge, though weekends dip roughly 13% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the weekday numbers tell a better story than Saturday and Sunday do. The current inspection record carries nine deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations. The last full inspection was February 2026, so the picture is recent. Nothing here suggests a home in crisis, but that one harm-level finding is the item worth asking about directly before you decide.

Weekend coverage drops about 8% below what the home staffs on weekdays, and annual turnover is 48.2%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure. The current inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level but one tied to abuse, with the most recent survey dated January 29, 2026. CMS rates its health inspections 3 out of 5 and its quality measures 4 out of 5, so the clinical picture reads steadier than the staffing and compliance numbers do.

Hunters Creek runs a for-profit LLC with 116 beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.03 hours per resident day, a little above the national average of 3.86, so coverage is decent on paper. Weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits then. Turnover of 35.6% actually beats the national 45.8%, so the crew tends to stick around. But the inspection record is the problem: 14 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with $67,191 in fines across three penalties. The last inspection was December 2024.

Lotus Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 180 beds in Orlando under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last state inspection was in October 2024, recent enough that the record reflects current conditions. That record shows 32 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, which is a serious pattern for a single home. Nurse staffing sits at 3.55 hours per resident day, roughly 8 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 9 percent below its own weekday level. Staff turnover is 34.4 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so retention isn't the weak spot here. The inspection and staffing ratings tell the harder story.

Conway Lakes runs 120 certified beds in Orlando under for-profit partnership ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.99 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover of 45.4% lands right at the national norm, so retention isn't the problem here. The trouble shows up in its record: 31 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, plus six fines totaling $94,672. A recent inspection in September 2025 means the findings are current, not stale. Quality measures score well, but the inspection history is what drags the overall picture down.

Staff turnover is 49.3 percent, slightly above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people caring for residents keep changing. Its inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus three fines totaling $23,136; the last inspection was April 2, 2026, and the health inspection rating is 2 out of 5. Quality measures score well at 4 out of 5, but that reflects resident outcomes on paper, not the staffing that shapes daily life.

Solaris Healthcare College Park runs 108 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers sit below where you'd want them. Nurses provide 3.65 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, weekends dip roughly 9% below weekdays, and turnover hits 50.4%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $46,804 in fines across three penalties. A May 2025 inspection is recent, and the 3/5 health inspection and 4/5 quality ratings aren't the problem, the 2/5 staffing rating is, and it lines up with what the hours and turnover show.

Orlando Health Center For Rehabilitation is a small place, just 10 certified beds, and its last inspection, in February 2025, came back clean enough to earn the top federal rating for health inspections. Nine deficiencies sit on the current record, none causing actual harm, though two are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Where the numbers turn is staffing: the federal staffing rating is 1 out of 5, the lowest tier, and at a 10-bed home that thin coverage has less room to absorb a bad night. Corporate, for-profit ownership. Good inspection results, weak daily staffing, that combination is the whole story here.

Courtyards of Orlando runs 120 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.55 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops about 10% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Annual turnover is 51.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over each year. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. Quality measure scoring is the weak spot here, 1 out of 5 stars, while staffing and health inspection each land at 3.
