Bethlehem Woods runs a 90-bed for-profit operation in Fort Wayne, and the numbers show a home that's mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 3.48 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends dip about 18% below its own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's actually on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover lands at 41.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn than many peers. Inspections are current as of March 2026 with four deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, and the quality measure rating is strong even though staffing scores lower.

Life Care Center Of Fort Wayne runs on thinner staffing than most homes its size. At 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 7% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday coverage. Annual turnover of 54.4% tops the national 45.8% by a wide margin, which means the people showing up on Saturday may not be the ones who knew your mother last month. The inspection record is a different story: seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse findings, and a survey completed in March 2026. Corporate-owned and Medicare-certified for 115 beds, it earns strong marks on quality measures while asking its nurses to do more with less.

Kingston Health Center Of Fort Wayne runs 137 certified beds under corporate, for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.09 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average of 3.86. That looks good until you notice weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 60.7% against a national average of 45.8%. Inspectors cited 25 deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection on June 25, 2025. CMS gives it 2 of 5 stars for health inspections but 5 of 5 for quality measures. The quality scores and staffing hours carry real weight; the inspection history and churn are what pull it back.

Heritage Park runs 180 certified beds in Fort Wayne under corporate ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 17% below what the building manages on weekdays, that's the gap families notice when they visit on a Sunday. Turnover is 45.2%, essentially tracking the national rate. On the plus side, the inspection record shows 7 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the last survey was recent. Quality measures score well, but the staffing figure is what pulls the overall picture down.

Glenbrook runs about 3.52 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends drop another 12% below its own weekday numbers. That gap matters more than the overall figure, since fewer hands on a Saturday night is when problems tend to surface. Turnover sits at 62.3%, well above the 45.8% national rate, so the staff who remain are often the newest. The inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse. A recent September 2025 inspection and strong quality measures help, but the staffing pattern and that abuse citation are the parts worth asking about directly.

Majestic Care of Fort Wayne runs on 3.09 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage is the main thing pulling its profile down, even though its last inspection closed in December 2025 and CMS gives it top marks for health inspections and quality measures. Six deficiencies sit on the current record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, and annual turnover runs 39.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, but still meaning roughly two in five staff leaving each year. For-profit corporate ownership.

Summit City Nursing and Rehabilitation runs 93 beds in Fort Wayne under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.93 nurse hours per resident day, just slightly ahead of the national average of 3.86. That margin is thin, and weekends drop roughly 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. Annual turnover lands at 45.9%, essentially matching the national rate. Five deficiencies appear on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, and the last inspection was recent. Clinical quality measures and health inspections both score well; the staffing picture is where the numbers get tighter.

Coventry Meadows runs on a lighter staffing cushion than most homes its size, 3.25 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 17 percent below its own weekday levels. That thin margin is the main reason its staffing rating sits low even though turnover, at 39.6 percent, is better than the 45.8 percent national figure. The clinical side looks strong: five-star inspection and quality ratings, a recent July 2025 survey, and just five deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level. One abuse-related citation is there, though. If you're weighing this one, ask directly how nursing coverage holds up on Saturday and Sunday.

Celebrate Senior Living of Fort Wayne runs 118 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the weak spot: 3.25 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping another 12% below its own weekday levels. Turnover, though, is better than most, 37.3% against a national 45.8%. The current record shows 16 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last inspection was April 2026. Quality measures score well; the staffing rating and those weekday-to-weekend gaps are what pull the overall picture down.

The Waters of Fort Wayne runs 77 certified beds under for-profit corporate ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out, 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, with weekends about 7% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover of 59.5% sits well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people showing up are often new. The current record carries 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but one abuse-related. Inspectors were last in on July 2, 2025, so the record is recent. Quality measures score well; staffing doesn't.

Majestic Care of West Allen runs 96 beds in Fort Wayne under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth knowing: 2.89 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter below. Weekend coverage drops another 13% from its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 50.7%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The current inspection record shows 16 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level, with a single fine of $21,645. Its quality measure score is strong, but that's built on documentation, not on the hands available at the bedside.

Canterbury runs about 3.18 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing drops another 17% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 58% against a national 45.8%, which means the aides and nurses at the bedside keep changing. The inspection record is cleaner: ten deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse findings, and the most recent survey was in September 2025. The quality measure score is strong. The tension here is between what the charts show and who's actually in the building on a Saturday. For-profit corporate ownership. Ask about weekend coverage and how long the current director of nursing has been in place.

Chateau Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center is a 99-bed for-profit in Fort Wayne, and the numbers worth your attention are on the staffing side. Nurses provide 3.65 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 63.6 percent, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, which means the aides and nurses caring for your relative are likely to change often. The current inspection record carries 37 deficiencies, one involving harm or jeopardy and one abuse-related, plus a $109,257 fine. The quality measure rating of 4 out of 5 is a genuine bright spot; the 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and recent July 2025 survey are the counterweight.

Sage Bluff Health and Rehab Center runs 84 certified beds in Fort Wayne under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers tell a split story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.34 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 12 percent below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover is 73.6 percent against a national 45.8, that's a lot of churn for a building this size. On paper, though, the place looks strong: 4 out of 5 stars on health inspections and quality measures, with 16 deficiencies on record and none at the harm or jeopardy level. The catch is that 3 of those 16 are abuse-related, and the staffing star tells you the ratios aren't keeping pace.

Majestic Care of Jefferson Pointe runs 135 certified beds in Fort Wayne under corporate, for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stand out. At 3.56 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 18% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 57.4% tops the national 45.8% by a wide margin, meaning the people caring for residents are often new to the building. The current record carries 27 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, with the last inspection dated March 2026.

Grey Stone runs 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 57.5% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record is the heavier problem: 24 deficiencies, five of them at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $193,383. That record earned a 1-star health inspection rating, and while the last inspection was recent, in August 2025, the pattern behind it matters more than the date. A for-profit limited liability company owns the 100-bed building.
