Maple Crest runs a corporate-owned, 175-bed operation in Omaha with a staffing picture that stands out: 4.46 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent above the national average, and turnover at 38.1 percent compared with 45.8 percent nationally. Weekends dip about 10 percent below weekday coverage, so a Friday-to-Sunday stretch looks thinner than the weekday numbers suggest.
The inspection record is where the tension sits. That staffing strength earned top marks on the federal staffing measure, but health inspections landed at the lowest rating, with 37 deficiencies on file, five tied to abuse, none flagged at the harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection closed in September 2025, so the record is current, and the quality measures sit below middle.
The numbers here start with people. At 6.66 nurse hours per resident per day, Ambassador Health Of Omaha runs about 72% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 28.3% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, a combination that usually means caregivers stay long enough to know the residents. Weekend coverage dips roughly 9% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record shows five deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection completed in July 2025. A for-profit corporation owns the 146-bed building; quality and staffing marks are strong, inspection history solid.
Old Mill Rehabilitation runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.85 per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's a real cushion, though weekends dip about 12% below the home's own weekday pace, so coverage isn't perfectly even. The bigger concern is staff churn: 67.3% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because residents see a lot of new faces. Eighteen deficiencies sit on the current record, three tied to abuse and none at the harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was April 2026, so the picture is recent. Ownership is a for-profit corporation, and the three-star ratings across health, quality, and staffing are consistent with what the numbers show.
St. Joseph Villa runs 184 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits essentially at the national average, 3.86 nurse hours per resident day, with weekends about 5% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the bright spot: 35.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning fewer caregivers cycling out the door than is typical.
The inspection record is where it gets harder to defend. Thirty-three deficiencies on the current record, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was January 8, 2026, so the findings are recent, not stale. One fine totaling $12,048 has been levied. Stable staff matters, but a harm-level citation and abuse-related deficiencies are the kind of thing families should ask about directly before moving anyone in.
Life Care Center of Omaha runs 128 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and its staffing numbers look decent at first glance, 4.20 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average. But weekends drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover sits at 50.9%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 44 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with a $31,079 fine and a September 2025 inspection. CMS gives it one star for health inspections, and the quality measure score of four stars doesn't offset that.
The Cypress At Midtown runs 61 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its strongest number is nurse staffing: 4.76 hours per resident day, roughly 23% above the national average. That's real coverage on paper, though weekends dip about 10% below the home's own weekday levels, so care isn't perfectly even across the week.
The concerning figure is turnover, 58.5% annually against a national rate near 46%. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm level, one tied to abuse. The last inspection was April 2026, so the picture is recent. Quality measures score 2 of 5 stars, and that's where the gap shows: adequate hands on deck, but consistency and outcomes lag.
Keystone Ridge runs on thinner staffing than most homes, 3.47 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday levels. That gap matters more when you consider turnover: 64.4% of staff left over the past year, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people covering those short weekend shifts are often new. Inspectors have cited 26 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a $70,103 fine on record and a May 2025 inspection. Corporate-owned and for-profit, it holds a single health inspection star but five stars on quality measures, a split worth asking about directly.
Omaha Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a 70-bed for-profit in Douglas County, and its inspection record is the thing to look at first. Forty-nine deficiencies on the current record, seven of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, five tied to abuse, that's a lot of citations for a building this size, and one $39,146 fine. The most recent inspection was July 31, 2025, so the record is current, not stale.
Daily nurse staffing sits at 3.77 hours per resident, a bit under the national average, with weekends running about 8% thinner than weekdays. Combined with a one-star inspection rating, that pattern matters more than the three-star quality measure score.
Emerald Nursing & Rehab in Omaha runs on thinner staffing than most homes, at 3.43 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekends drop further, about 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is stretched exactly when families tend to visit. The 60.3% turnover rate matters too, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses caring for your relative are frequently new. Its inspection record shows 53 deficiencies, including 9 abuse-related and 3 at the harm level, with $87,389 in fines. The most recent inspection was January 2026, so that record is current, not old.
Hillcrest Millard runs on thin staffing. At 3.13 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 19% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover tells the other half of the story: 77.2% of staff leave within a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, which makes consistent care hard to sustain. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one abuse-related citation. Ownership is for-profit, through a limited liability company. The last inspection was February 24, 2026.
The Banyan At Montclair holds 175 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing runs about 8% above the national average, 4.16 nurse hours per resident day. But that number hides a churn problem: 62.8% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, and weekend coverage drops roughly 7% below weekday levels. The inspection record is the harder read. Sixty-one deficiencies on file, four at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, plus three CMS fines totaling $141,793. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care. A recent December 2025 inspection doesn't reset any of that.
Emerald Nursing & Rehab Legacy Pointe runs 108 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.45 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover is 53.3% against a national 45.8%, which means more than half the staff left within a year. The home carries 29 deficiencies on its current record, including one abuse-related citation, none at the harm level, plus eight fines totaling $56,445. A July 2025 inspection is recent, and the quality measure rating of 3/5 suggests clinical outcomes are middling, not alarming.
Emerald Nursing & Rehabilitation Mercy runs 174 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 3.28 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 15% below, and weekends drop about 13% below the home's own weekday levels, while annual turnover hits 64.8% against a 45.8% national figure. The inspection history is the heavier weight: 71 deficiencies on the current record, six at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and $61,867 in fines across three events. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care.
