How for-profit homes in Kansas City, MO compare
This group set against every nursing home in Kansas City, MO, from the current CMS release.
Nurse staffing at Mccrite Plaza runs about 5.92 hours per resident day, well above the national average of 3.86, which is the main reason its staffing rating holds at 4 out of 5. That coverage thins on weekends, dropping roughly 9% below weekday levels, and 54.5% of staff turned over in the past year, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care keep changing. The inspection record is the weaker side: 37 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a $31,280 fine. With a 2/5 health inspection rating and a December 2024 inspection, the compliance history is worth asking about directly.
Myers Nursing & Convalescent Center has a real split in its record. The quality measures look strong at 5 out of 5, but staffing sits at 1 out of 5, and that's the number that matters most day to day, it tracks how many nurses and aides are actually there for 84 residents. The inspection history is heavy: 66 deficiencies on the current record, including 3 tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was October 10, 2025. This is a for-profit LLC, and the pattern here is a home that can document good clinical outcomes on paper while running thin on direct care.
Hilltop At Blue River runs about 2.62 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third below the national average, and weekends drop another 11% under its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover is 37.9%, actually better than the national 45.8%. The split shows in the numbers: quality measures score 5/5, but staffing sits at 1/5 and inspections at 2/5, with 48 deficiencies on record, two at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, plus a $34,704 fine. Last inspected March 2025. For-profit corporate ownership. Ask about weekday-to-weekend staffing and how those abuse findings were resolved.
Tiffany Springs runs 120 beds in Kansas City under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers tell a mixed story. Nurses provide 3.73 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. Annual turnover sits at 47%, slightly above the national figure.
What stands out more is the inspection record: 44 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents at harm or jeopardy, and two fines totaling $48,152. The most recent inspection was January 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well, but quality scores reflect specific clinical metrics, not day-to-day supervision or the problems inspectors actually found.
Northland Rehabilitation runs 118 beds in Kansas City under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national average of 3.86 nurse hours per resident day, not below it, but weekends drop about 14% from weekday coverage, which is when families tend to visit and notice. The bigger issue is turnover: 60.9% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning roughly six in ten staff left within the year. Inspections in July 2025 turned up 20 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. A 3/5 on health inspections and quality measures, with staffing at 2/5, tells you where the pressure points are.
Ignite Medical Resort Kansas City runs 90 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the weak spot: 3.47 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage. Annual turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people helping your family member may be relatively new to the building. The current record shows 30 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related citation, plus a $6,368 fine; the last inspection was February 2026. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection history are where the concerns concentrate.
Summit, The runs 64 beds in Kansas City under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 1.77 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 16% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 54.8%. The inspection record shows 67 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. Its quality measure score is strong, but that sits alongside a one-star inspection rating and a one-star staffing rating. For a family weighing this one, the question is whether the clinical outcomes you see on paper can hold up when the day-to-day staffing is this thin.
Seasons Rehab runs 78 beds under limited-liability, for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the bright spot: 23 deficiencies on the current record, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, and a four-out-of-five health inspection rating with a visit as recent as January 2025. Staffing is where it frays. At 3.73 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 3% under the national average, weekends run roughly 12% below its own weekday levels, and turnover hits 57.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over in a year. Two abuse-related deficiencies also appear on the record.
Highland Rehabilitation & Health Care Center runs 162 certified beds in Kansas City under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the clearest problem: 3.01 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 22 percent below. Weekend coverage drops another 9 percent under its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 49 percent. The current inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, including 4 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 abuse-related, with $48,935 in fines across two penalties. A recent February 2025 inspection means the picture is current, not stale. The 5/5 quality measure score stands out against 2/5 for both staffing and health inspections, worth asking what's behind that gap.
Clara Manor runs 90 certified beds in Kansas City under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are where things get uncomfortable, a one-star staffing rating means nurse hours sit below what CMS considers adequate for this resident population. The inspection record backs that up: 89 deficiencies, including six at the level where residents were actually harmed or put in immediate jeopardy, and twelve tied to abuse. A four-star quality measure rating looks better on paper, but those scores come from resident assessments the facility largely reports itself, and they don't cancel out a one-star inspection history. The most recent survey was October 2025, so the record is current, not stale. For a family weighing this placement, the staffing and abuse findings deserve direct questions before anything else.
Ignite Medical Resort Carondelet runs 162 certified beds in Kansas City under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 2.74 hours per resident day, roughly 29% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday numbers, and annual turnover hits 66% against a national 45.8%, so the people who remain are stretched thin. The current record carries 72 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. A 4/5 quality measure score stands out against a 1/5 staffing rating, and the last inspection was January 16, 2026. Ask about direct-care hours on weekends before you decide.
Parkview Healthcare runs on 2.75 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 29% under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends drop another 8% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in its record: 96 deficiencies, seven of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, nine tied to abuse, and $140,021 in fines across four penalties. Washington has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the country's most troubled homes, and its last inspection closed in February 2025. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. Turnover, at 44.8%, is about average, which means the instability isn't the story here, the short staffing and inspection history are.
Rehab Of Kansas City South runs about 3.10 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends are about 17% thinner than its own weekdays. That staffing shortfall shows up in other numbers: 59.5% of staff left over the past year against a 45.8% national rate, and CMS gives staffing a single star out of five. The inspection record carries 45 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy, and the last survey was in February 2025. This is a for-profit LLC with 100 certified beds, a two-star inspection rating, and a three-star quality measure score.
New Mark Rehab runs 199 beds in Kansas City under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nursing hours come in around 3.51 per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, with weekends dipping another 9% below its own weekday coverage. That thin schedule sits alongside a 70.6% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the staff present are often new. The inspection record shows 44 deficiencies, including four at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $12,279 and a June 2025 inspection.

Parkway Health Care Center runs on 2.25 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 42% under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage sits behind a one-star staffing rating. The inspection record is heavier: 98 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 8 tied to abuse, drawing $30,821 in fines. Staff turnover hits 67.4% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing care keep changing. The most recent inspection was October 23, 2024. Corporate-owned, 97 beds.
Bridgewood runs on 2.45 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a third below the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 9% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families visit. Staff turnover sits at 58.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning the people providing that care are frequently new. The inspection record is what stands out most: 125 deficiencies, 26 of them at harm or jeopardy level, 36 tied to abuse, and $973,967 in fines across 13 penalties. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care. The most recent inspection was April 28, 2025.
Gregory Ridge is a 116-bed for-profit home in Kansas City, and the numbers behind its record are hard to argue with. Nurse staffing sits at 2.37 hours per resident day, roughly 39% below the national average, and it thins out further on weekends. Staff turnover runs 68.4% a year against a national average of 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new or on their way out.
