Norfolk Health Care Center runs on 3.13 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 14% below what it manages on weekdays. That thin staffing sits alongside a 72.8% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning most of the people caring for residents are new to the building. The inspection record shows 51 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a $102,245 fine, and the last full inspection was in July 2021. Corporate-owned, 180 beds, and the federal stars land at one for health inspections and one for staffing.
