Staff turnover
61%
Serious cites

Powdersville Post-Acute runs about 3.24 nursing hours per resident each day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 12% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage lines up with a 61.3% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses caring for your relative are frequently new to the building. The health inspection record is mixed: 11 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with two fines totaling $7,496, and the most recent inspection was in August 2025. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. Quality measures score well, but staffing is where the numbers get tight.

Piedmont Post-Acute runs about 3.45 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends dip another 15% below its own weekday staffing. That thinner coverage matters more here because 55.6% of staff turned over in the last year, well above the national 45.8%. Inspectors cited 23 deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm, and fined the home $8,018; the most recent inspection was April 2026. The quality star rating looks strong at 4/5, but it sits alongside 2/5 marks for both staffing and health inspections. For-profit LLC ownership rounds out the picture.

Southpointe runs lean on nursing staff, 3.14 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends thin out even further, down about 16% from its own weekday coverage. That staffing picture helps explain a 1-out-of-5 CMS staffing rating, and it's paired with a 53.2% annual turnover rate, well above the national 45.8%. The current inspection record carries 17 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $14,433 fine. The most recent inspection was March 27, 2026, so the findings are recent. Corporate for-profit ownership, 120 certified beds in Greenville.

Opus Post Acute Rehabilitation runs 98 beds in West Columbia under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.78 nurse hours per resident day. That gap looks small until you see weekends, when coverage drops roughly 16% below the home's own weekday level, exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover hits 50%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for your relative are changing often. The current record carries 15 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus $12,043 in fines across two penalties. Its last inspection was January 29, 2026, so that picture is recent.

Staffing is the weak spot at Magnolia Manor, Spartanburg. At 3.13 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 19% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 15% below what the home staffs during the week, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 56.4% sits well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning aides and nurses cycle through faster than most places. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with a $12,054 fine. The most recent inspection was in May 2025. Corporate for-profit ownership, 95 certified beds.

Pruitthealth-Bamberg runs on 3.24 nurse hours per resident per day, about 16 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 23 percent below its own weekday staffing. That thin weekend coverage matters most when families visit and when problems surface. Turnover sits at 37.7 percent, which is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, the steadier crew is a genuine point in its favor. But the inspection record carries 18 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus four fines totaling $34,606. The most recent inspection was May 2025. If you're considering this one, ask directly how weekends are staffed and what changed after those abuse citations.

The Oaks Post Acute runs on 3.08 nurse hours per resident day, about a fifth below the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11% below what the home already staffs during the week. Twenty-one deficiencies sit on its current record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with 14 fines totaling $111,710. Ownership is for-profit, through a limited liability company, and the last inspection was January 13, 2026. Turnover among nursing staff is 45.3%, almost exactly the national figure, so the problem here isn't retention, it's how few hours each resident actually gets and what inspectors keep finding.

Pruitthealth-Moncks Corner runs 132 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 26% below its own weekday levels, that gap matters when families visit Saturday and Sunday. Turnover is 48.7%, a few points above the national figure, so the faces change often. Inspections show 19 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $21,970 in fines across three events. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the record is current.

St George Healthcare Center runs 88 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.17 hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the relative bright spot at 30.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which means less churn in who's actually at the bedside. Against that, the current inspection record carries 13 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $16,894. The most recent inspection was February 17, 2026.

Lancaster Health and Rehabilitation runs 142 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the number that jumps out: 3.05 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a fifth lighter. Weekends drop about another 10% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover sits at 54.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses you meet may not be there in a year. Fifteen deficiencies are on record, one tied to abuse, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was May 2025, so the picture is reasonably current.

Ridgeway Manor runs on 2.87 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and its weekend staffing barely dips from weekday levels, so the thin coverage isn't a weekend problem, it's the baseline. The inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 30 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in jeopardy, plus four tied to abuse. A one-out-of-five inspection rating with the most recent survey dated April 2026 gives you a picture of a building that has repeatedly fallen short on the fundamentals. Staff turnover, at 44.6%, is essentially at the national rate.

Magnolia Manor in Rock Hill is a for-profit home with 106 certified beds, and the numbers that stand out most are on the inspection side. Twenty deficiencies sit on its current record, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and four tied to abuse. Federal fines total $128,214 across five penalties. Nurse staffing runs about 3.22 hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 11 percent below its own weekday levels. Turnover, at 39 percent, is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure. The last inspection was in December 2025, so the record is recent, not stale.

White Oak Estates runs 88 certified beds in Spartanburg under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.62 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average, with weekends about 9% thinner than its own weekdays. Annual staff turnover is 57.1% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for your family member are changing more often than at the typical home. The current inspection record carries 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a single $8,827 fine. The last inspection was March 5, 2026, so that record is recent.

Iva Post-Acute is a 60-bed for-profit home in Anderson County, and the numbers tell a split story. On paper, the care quality looks strong, a 5/5 quality measure rating and a 4/5 on health inspections, with the most recent inspection in September 2025 finding 11 deficiencies, none of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy and none tied to abuse. The catch is staffing. At 2.92 nurse hours per resident day, this home runs roughly 24% below the national average, and weekends dip another 11% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 57.8% against a national rate of 45.8%. A limited liability company owns it. Good inspection results matter, but they can't fully offset thin, churning staffing.

Angel Oak runs lean on the floor: 3.25 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekday coverage. That shortfall matters more when you look at turnover, 57.3% of staff leaving annually, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. Inspectors last visited in February 2026 and found eight deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with a $13,520 fine on record. The recent inspection and quality scores look decent on paper, but staffing is where the trouble shows.

Summit Hills runs a small house, 27 beds, and staffs it better than most: 4.86 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage holding nearly level with weekdays. That's the good news. The harder fact is turnover at 65.4% against a national 45.8%, which means the people delivering those hours keep changing. Five deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection came in January 2026. Quality measures rate 2 of 5, the weakest mark in the file. Ownership is for-profit through a limited liability company. Strong hands-on hours, but a workforce that doesn't stay.

Linley Park Post Acute runs thin on nursing hours: 3.23 per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 13 percent below its own weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 63.4 percent against a national 45.8, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. The for-profit, limited-liability owner has kept a clean inspection record lately, 12 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse findings, and a survey from December 2025, and quality measures score well. What a family should weigh is whether adequate clinical outcomes can hold up when the staffing line is the weakest part of the file.

Edisto Post Acute runs on thin staffing. At 3.09 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 20% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 8% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. The CMS staffing rating reflects that at 1 out of 5. Turnover is the bigger tell: 60.9% of nursing staff leaving annually against a national 45.8% means caregivers rarely stay long enough to learn your mother's routines. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, one abuse-related, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was recent, September 2025. Quality measures score well, but that reflects charted outcomes, not the hands available to deliver them.

Oakbrook runs lean on nursing hours, 3.13 per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average, and weekends get thinner still, with about 13% less coverage than weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 63.9% against a national rate near 46%, meaning nearly two out of three caregivers are leaving each year, which usually shows up as unfamiliar faces and unfinished routines. The inspection record backs that up: 13 deficiencies, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and $22,564 in fines across three separate penalties, with a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating. Its most recent survey was in May 2026, so the findings are current, not stale.

Carlyle Senior Care of Florence runs 88 beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing I'd flag. At 3.51 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday coverage. That gap matters when you're thinking about who's answering a call light on a Sunday. Annual turnover is 59.8% against a national 45.8%, so the faces change often. The current inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. Its last inspection was March 26, 2026, so the picture is recent.
