Chadwick Community Care Center runs 102 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.17 hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 15% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit, and annual turnover of 72.5% means most of the people caring for residents are relatively new. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a $8,281 fine; the last inspection was January 29, 2026. Quality measures score lowest of the three CMS categories, with staffing and health inspections each one step above that.
Meridian's Oaks Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs 82 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers there deserve a careful read before you consider it. Nurse staffing sits at 3.43 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, about 13% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover hits 60.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents are frequently new.
The current inspection record carries 34 deficiencies, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and eight abuse-related, with $42,487 in fines across three penalties. The most recent inspection was June 26, 2025. Ask about those abuse deficiencies directly, and about how weekend coverage is handled.
Pass Christian Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 60 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.45 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop another 12% below its own weekday coverage, which matters most when families visit and needs go unmet. Annual turnover hits 71.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents keep changing. Eighteen deficiencies sit on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. One fine totaling $8,224 has been levied. The last inspection was September 4, 2025.
Grand Trace runs on 3.30 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 5% below its own weekday numbers. Staff turnover sits at 58.8% against a national 45.8%, so nearly three in five workers leave within a year. Its record shows 39 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to put residents at harm or jeopardy, plus $48,153 in fines across two penalties, with the most recent inspection in March 2025. The federal star ratings land at one out of five for both health inspections and quality measures, and two for staffing. This is a for-profit limited liability company operating 96 certified beds.
Pine Forest runs 4.87 nurse hours per resident per day, well above the national figure of 3.86, but that average hides a lot, since weekends drop roughly 27% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 63% against a national 45.8%, meaning the people providing that care are often new or on their way out. The inspection record is the harder problem: 41 deficiencies, 11 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus six fines totaling $136,799. The most recent inspection was June 2025, so this is a current picture, not history. For-profit, limited liability ownership.
Arabella Health & Wellness Of Meridian runs 84 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely the strong point: 15 deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, and the most recent survey came in April 2025. The trouble sits elsewhere. Nurse staffing averages 3.41 hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national figure, weekends drop about 17% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 66.7% against a 45.8% national average. That combination, thin coverage that thins further on weekends, with most of the workforce leaving each year, is what pulls the quality and staffing measures down, even with a clean recent inspection.
Bedford Care Center of Marion runs on a for-profit LLC model with 120 certified beds, and its staffing numbers tell two different stories. Nurses provide 5.10 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, but weekends drop about 19% below weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 88.9%, nearly double the national rate, meaning the people providing that care cycle through constantly. The inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 27 deficiencies on file, 7 of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus 2 abuse-related findings and $244,855 in fines across three penalties. A recent March 2026 inspection and low marks on both health inspections and quality measures round out a picture that staffing hours alone can't fix.
Bedford Care Center of Mendenhall runs 60 certified beds under limited liability ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed. At 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 7% above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 61.1% against a national 45.8%. The bigger problem is what inspectors found: 23 deficiencies on the current record, six of them at harm or jeopardy level, with four fines totaling $101,514 and a February 2025 inspection. Both the health inspection and quality measure ratings sit at 1 out of 5 stars. Turnover that high plus that many serious deficiencies is a combination worth asking about directly before you decide.
Cornerstone runs 95 beds in Corinth under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the place to start. The current file carries 33 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two tied to abuse. A single CMS fine of $90,844 came out of that history, and the most recent inspection is dated April 2026.
Nurse staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 55.4% against a national 45.8%. That combination, thin weekend coverage, high churn, and a heavy deficiency load, is what drives the low overall grade, not any one number alone.
Coastal Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 180 certified beds in Gulfport under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its federal record deserve a close look. Nurse staffing sits at 3.18 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends run about a tenth thinner than weekdays, so coverage is stretched exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover compounds that: 63.2% of staff leaving annually, well above the 45.8% national figure.
The inspection record is heavier still, 42 deficiencies, seven at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, plus five fines totaling $76,258. A 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and a recent August 2025 survey mean the problems aren't historical. Ask hard questions before considering this one.
Edgewood Health & Rehabilitation has more nursing hours per resident than most homes in the country, 5.36 per day against a national average of 3.86, but that's the strongest thing in its data. The current inspection record carries 47 deficiencies, 16 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 8 involving abuse, with nine fines totaling $123,043. Staff turnover sits at 59.8% versus 45.8% nationally, and weekend coverage drops about 19% below weekday levels. CMS has placed this for-profit, 119-bed home in its Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the country's most persistently troubled nursing homes. Its last inspection was August 2024.
Courtyard Health and Rehabilitation is a 145-bed for-profit home in McComb that CMS has placed in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent record of poor inspections. The numbers explain why: 27 deficiencies on the current record, 10 of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, plus 2 tied to abuse. Both its health inspection and quality measure ratings sit at 1 out of 5 stars. Nurse staffing at 3.46 hours per resident day runs about 10% under the national average, weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, and turnover sits near 45%. On paper, the staffing is the least of this home's problems.
Yazoo City Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center carries 39 deficiencies on its current record, and 13 of those are serious enough to involve actual harm or jeopardy to residents. Four are abuse-related. That combination, along with three fines totaling $211,371, is what put this home in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the country's poorest performers. Staffing sits at 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, about 5 percent under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 17 percent from weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts land when families are least likely to visit. Annual turnover of 47.9 percent runs slightly above the national figure, meaning caregivers cycle through faster than average. Inspectors last visited in November 2024.
Starkville Manor runs 119 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.37 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 13% thinner, with weekends dropping another 11% below its own weekdays. Turnover at 37.6% actually beats the 45.8% national figure, so the problem here isn't retention so much as how few hands are on deck when they do stay. The deficiency record is what stands out: 25 citations, six at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, plus a $51,893 fine and placement in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. That program exists for homes with a pattern of poor care, and a March 2026 inspection is recent enough that the findings are current.
Sunplex Sub-Acute Center is a 73-bed for-profit home in Ocean Springs, and the numbers behind its federal record are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.39 hours per resident day, about 12% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays, gaps that matter most when a resident needs help and fewer hands are on the floor. The inspection history is the bigger concern: 41 deficiencies on the current record, 15 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 3 abuse-related, with four fines totaling $305,999. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which it reserves for the homes with the most persistent problems. Staff turnover of 48.3% runs above the national average, meaning caregivers keep leaving.
Bedford Care Center of Picayune runs 120 beds as a for-profit corporation, and its staffing is the one number that holds up: 3.95 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, though weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage. Almost everything else on the record cuts the other way. State inspectors have cited 26 deficiencies, 12 of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and 6 involving abuse, with two fines totaling $39,392 and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, an active watchlist, not a past blemish. Staff turnover sits at 49.6% against 45.8% nationally, meaning roughly half the caregivers leave each year. The most recent inspection was December 18, 2025.
Pleasant Hills runs 100 certified beds in Jackson under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers show a building under real strain. Nurse staffing sits just under the national average, but weekends drop about 18% below its own weekday level, meaning the coverage families count on Saturday and Sunday is thinner than what the home staffs during the week. Turnover is the bigger signal: 55.3% annually against a 45.8% national average, so nearly six in ten caregivers are leaving each year. That churn shows up in the inspection record, too, 24 deficiencies, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way, two tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $147,937.
