How for-profit homes in Pennsylvania compare
This group set against every nursing home in Pennsylvania, from the current CMS release.
The numbers for Immaculatemarycenter in Philadelphia tell a split story. Quality measures look good at 4 out of 5 stars, but staffing sits at 1 star, 3.40 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 9% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 58% a year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the harder part: 45 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, with a 1-star health inspection rating and the most recent survey dated March 2026. For a 296-bed for-profit home, that combination, thin coverage, high turnover, and serious citations, is what a family should weigh before touring.
Cedarwood runs lean on nursing hours, 3.03 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a fifth fewer hands per resident. The weekend gap matters too: coverage drops about 7% below the home's own weekday level, when families tend to visit and problems surface. The inspection record is the heavier worry. Seventy-four deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a one-star health inspection rating. Two fines total $29,909. Staff turnover, at 36.1%, actually sits below the national 45.8%, so retention isn't the weak point. Ownership is for-profit, a limited liability company. The most recent inspection was February 5, 2026.
Lebanon Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 159 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.76 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday levels. The bigger issue is retention: annual turnover hits 58.7% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents are constantly changing. CMS gives the home a 1-out-of-5 staffing star, a 2-out-of-5 inspection star, and 48 total deficiencies on its current record, including 2 abuse-related citations, with the most recent inspection dated April 2026. Nothing here rises to immediate harm, but the pattern is thin coverage and a churning workforce.
Kadima Rehabilitation & Nursing At New Castle runs about 62 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its recent federal record is a mixed bag. The good news sits on the inspection side, a four-out-of-five star rating and a fresh survey from May 2026, with 10 deficiencies on record, only one at the harm level and none related to abuse. Where it slips is staffing: 3.54 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, weekends running about 8% thinner than weekdays, and 55.2% annual turnover versus 45.8% nationally. That churn, not the inspection history, is the number worth asking the administrator about directly.
Edison Manor runs on 3.20 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 55.3 percent against a national 45.8, so the aides and nurses at the bedside keep changing. The current record carries 38 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a $12,740 fine, and the most recent inspection came in January 2026. Quality scores look strong at 4 out of 5, but that measurement draws on resident assessments, not on whether enough hands are present each shift.
Bradford Hills runs on 3.02 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday level, meaning the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits near 60%, well above the national 45.8%, so the people providing that care are frequently new. The inspection record shows 56 deficiencies, including one at harm level and five tied to abuse, and the health inspection rating sits at 2 of 5 stars. Ownership is corporate and for-profit. A 4-star quality measure score doesn't cancel out what the staffing and inspection numbers show.
Shippenville Nursing and Rehab runs about 3.51 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday staffing. That shortfall shows up in the federal staffing rating, which sits at 2 out of 5. The 60% annual turnover is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents change often. On the plus side, the 25 deficiencies on record include none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was recent, in June 2025. This is a limited liability, for-profit home with 120 beds, worth asking the administrator how they cover weekend shifts.
West Park runs 4.15 nurse hours per resident day, which is genuinely above the national average. But that average hides a lot: weekend coverage drops about 13% below its own weekday level, and nearly 70% of staff turned over in the past year against a national rate under 46%. High turnover plus thin weekends is how a place with decent raw hours ends up with a 1-out-of-5 staffing rating. The inspection record is heavier still, 34 deficiencies, three serious enough to risk harm, one tied to abuse, and the most recent survey was in December 2025, so this isn't old history. Ownership is for-profit, through a limited liability company.
King Of Prussia Skilled Nursing And Rehabilitation runs 170 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.52 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 67.1%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents change often and thin out further on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 68 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. Quality measures score well, but that gap between reported care and the staffing and inspection record is worth asking about directly.
Greenwood Center runs about 3.23 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 16 percent under the national average, and weekends dip another 7 percent below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 64.9 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the people caring for residents are changing constantly.
The inspection record backs that up: 53 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. CMS gives the home 2 out of 5 stars for both staffing and health inspections, though its quality measure score is a 3. The last inspection was in January 2026, so the record is recent. A for-profit limited liability company operates its 150 certified beds.
Kittanning Health & Rehab Center runs 97 deficiencies on its current record, 13 of them abuse-related and three serious enough to put residents in harm's way. Staffing sits at 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 12% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Turnover is the figure that stands out: 62.6% of nursing staff leaving annually against a national average of 45.8%, so nearly two-thirds of the people providing daily care are new each year. The one bright spot is the 5/5 quality measure rating, but that reflects charted clinical outcomes, not the inspection record or the hands available at the bedside.
Green Valley runs 48 beds in Pottsville under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers show a building stretched thin. Nurse staffing sits at 3.69 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 10% below its own weekday levels, so families visiting Saturday or Sunday may find fewer hands on deck. Staff turnover is 54% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing workforce turns over in a year.
The inspection record is heavier: 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, plus a $10,033 fine. The last inspection was December 18, 2025. All three CMS star categories land at 2 out of 5. If you're considering this home, ask specifically how weekend coverage and turnover are being managed, and request the abuse-related plans of correction.
Kadima Rehabilitation & Nursing At Pottstown is a 41-bed for-profit home, and the numbers that stand out most are the 34 deficiencies on its current record, four of those at the harm or jeopardy level, plus one abuse-related. That inspection history, not the quality measure score, is what drags its standing down. Nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident day, about 12 percent under the national average, and weekends run roughly 4 percent leaner than weekdays. Three fines totaling $128,618 round out the picture. A recent inspection date doesn't erase a record like that. If you're considering this home, ask directly how they've addressed the harm-level findings and what weekend coverage actually looks like on the floor.
Eldercrest runs 48 beds in Munhall under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 7% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 58.6% runs well above the 45.8% national figure, which usually means less continuity for residents. The inspection record shows 36 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and seven tied to abuse, plus one fine of $18,962. Last inspection was November 2025. The quality measure stars look strong, but staffing and health inspection stars both sit at 2 out of 5, and that gap is worth asking about directly.
Aristacare At Meadow Springs has 153 beds and enough nurses on paper, 4.64 hours per resident day, about a fifth above the national average. The trouble is what inspections keep finding: 40 deficiencies on the current record, three of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in immediate jeopardy, and three tied to abuse. The health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5, and staffing drops roughly 7% on weekends, when supervision is already thinner. Staff turnover of 42.5% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, which helps, but it doesn't offset that inspection history. One fine of $17,664 rounds out the record. If you're considering this home, ask directly how those abuse and harm findings were resolved.
Mountain View runs 271 certified beds in Coal Township under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.82 nurse hours per resident day. That small gap matters less than the pattern around it: weekends drop about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 49%, well above the 45.8% national figure.
The inspection record is the real concern here. Seventy-nine deficiencies are on file, including four at the level where residents were actually harmed or put in jeopardy, and seven tied to abuse. Two fines total $24,854. The last inspection was May 2026, so the record is current, not stale. With a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, the compliance history is what separates this home from others with similar staffing.
Pennypack Rehab and Care Center is a 54-bed for-profit home in Philadelphia, and its inspection record is genuinely good, a 4/5 health inspection rating, last surveyed in May 2026, with 27 deficiencies on file but none at the harm or jeopardy level. The staffing picture is where it gets thin. At 3.15 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 18% below the national average, and weekends drop roughly 7% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 68.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which is a lot of churn for a building this size. Three abuse-related deficiencies also appear on the current record.
Kadima Rehabilitation & Nursing At Greenville runs 154 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth knowing. At 3.17 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 18% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover lands at 53.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people around your relative change often.
The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $21,645 fine. A June 2025 inspection is recent, which is the one favorable detail. The 1-out-of-5 staffing rating and 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating tell you where the trouble concentrates, even though the quality measure score of 3 suggests some care processes track adequately on paper.
If you're considering this home, ask directly about weekday versus weekend coverage and how they're addressing turnover.
Yorkview runs 270 beds under limited-liability for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 2.90 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is 48.3%, a few points above the national 45.8%. The inspection record is heavy: 65 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. Its last inspection was May 2025. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspections don't, and that gap is worth asking about directly.
Kadima Rehabilitation & Nursing At New Wilmington runs 115 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture, a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating with nine deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level. One abuse-related citation is there, though, and worth asking about directly. Staffing is where it slips: 3.42 nurse hours per resident day sits about 11% under the national average, weekends run roughly 10% thinner than weekdays, and turnover hits 52.3% against 45.8% nationally. With quality measures at 2 out of 5, the pattern is a home that inspects cleanly but may struggle to keep consistent hands on deck.
