Rennes Health and Rehab Center in Appleton runs about 4.65 nursing hours per resident each day, roughly 21 percent above the national average, and its weekend staffing dips only about 11 percent below weekdays. The six deficiencies on its current record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and no abuse citations; the most recent inspection was in August 2025. Staff turnover sits at 34 percent, well below the national 45.8 percent. It's a for-profit corporation, which is worth knowing, but the staffing, turnover, and inspection record here are the stronger signals. Ask about weekend coverage on the specific unit your family member would live on.

Dove Healthcare - West Eau Claire runs on unusually heavy staffing for a nursing home: 6.23 nurse hours per resident day, about 61% above the national average, which is the main reason it holds up well. Weekends dip roughly 12% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 41%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the 12 deficiencies on record include one at the harm level, worth asking about directly. The last inspection was March 2025, so the picture is current.

Hope Health and Rehab runs about 4.95 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover of 22.7% is about half the national rate of 45.8%. Weekend staffing dips about 14% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays than the weekday numbers suggest. Inspectors have cited 19 deficiencies on the current record, one at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated May 1, 2025. For-profit corporate ownership is worth noting when you weigh those inspection findings against the strong staffing picture.

Dove Healthcare - South Eau Claire runs 5.31 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 38% above the national average of 3.86, and CMS gives it top marks for staffing. Weekend coverage dips about 15% below its own weekday levels, and turnover sits at 46.3%, essentially identical to the national 45.8%. The tradeoff is in the inspection record: three deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy. A recent April 2025 inspection and a 4/5 health inspection rating help, but that harm-level finding is the number worth asking about directly before you decide.

Pride TLC in Weston runs 5.62 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 46% above the national average of 3.86, that's real coverage, especially for a 25-bed home where staffing numbers can swing hard. Weekend hours dip only about 9% below weekdays, and turnover sits at 35.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 8 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in April 2026. The one soft spot is ownership: a for-profit partnership, which tends to weigh toward margin over time. Still, the numbers here describe a home that's currently well staffed and clean on inspections.

Care & Rehab - Ladysmith 2 runs about 4.46 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 16 percent above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 15.4 percent against a national 45.8, that combination is uncommon and it shows up in consistent care rather than churn. Weekend coverage dips only about 8 percent below weekdays, so the drop is modest. The home carries just three deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with its most recent inspection in March 2025. It's a for-profit corporation operating a small 30-bed building in Rusk County, and the numbers suggest the size isn't costing residents attention.

Oakridge Gardens runs a for-profit operation in Menasha with 106 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits well above average, 5.46 hours per resident day against a national figure of 3.86. That margin matters, though weekends dip about 14% below what the home staffs during the week, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Staff turnover lands at 50.9%, a bit higher than the 45.8% national rate, which suggests some churn even with the strong hours. Inspectors logged 21 deficiencies on the current record, three tied to abuse, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent visit was May 2025. The limited liability ownership structure means the company behind the building, not a public entity, holds the license.

Ellsworth Health Services runs about 3.7 nurse hours per resident per day, a touch under the national average, and weekends are roughly 13% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. The bigger story is retention: turnover sits at 20.6% against a national average near 46%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. Its record shows eight deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with a clean four-star inspection history as recently as August 2025. For a for-profit, 50-bed home, that combination of stable staff and low-severity findings is what separates it from the pack.

Sky View Nursing Center is a small for-profit home in Hurley, 33 beds, individually owned. Its staffing sits about 3% under the national average at 3.74 nurse hours per resident day, and weekends run roughly 9% thinner than weekdays, so coverage dips when it's hardest to fill. What stands out is retention: turnover runs at 23.5%, about half the national rate, which suggests people stay. State inspectors visited in April 2026 and found seven deficiencies, none causing harm and none abuse-related. The quality measure score is weak, though, so ask what those measures reflect before assuming daily care matches the stable workforce.

Dove Healthcare - Rice Lake runs 4.48 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% more than the national average of 3.86, and its weekend staffing dips about 11% below its own weekday level. The home carries a 5/5 CMS health inspection rating and a 5/5 quality measure rating, with three deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and its most recent inspection was August 13, 2025. It's a for-profit limited liability company with 50 certified beds. The staffing star comes in lower, at 3/5, which is worth asking about given how much weight the raw hours carry here.

Maplewood Of Sauk Prairie runs 4.35 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average, which is the main reason its staffing and quality measure ratings sit at 4 and 5 stars. The tradeoff is staffing consistency: weekends drop about 13% below weekday levels, so coverage depends on when you visit. Its 16 deficiencies include four tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the last inspection was in February 2026. Staff turnover at 46.4% tracks just above the national average of 45.8%, so aides cycling through is a real factor here. For-profit corporate ownership rounds out the picture.

Grancare Nursing Center runs on a for-profit corporate model with 64 certified beds, and the numbers that stand out are the staffing ones. At 4.58 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 19% above the national average of 3.86, a real cushion, though weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday level, so care isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover lands at 43.2%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency. The inspection record shows 9 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Its most recent inspection was January 2026, so the picture is current.

Newcare runs 43 beds in Crivitz under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.59 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest hours tend to land when families often visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 28.2% against a national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most homes manage. The inspection record is more mixed. Seventeen deficiencies are on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse. The last inspection was August 2025, so that picture is recent, not stale.

Rennes Health and Rehab Center-De Pere runs nurse staffing at 4.73 hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average, and that shows up in its staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Staff turnover sits at 42.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The home carries 12 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with its last inspection dated January 15, 2026. Quality measures land mid-range at 3 out of 5 stars, so the clinical picture isn't quite as strong as the staffing and inspection numbers. Corporate for-profit ownership.

Villa Marina runs on solid staffing numbers. At 3.95 nurse hours per resident day, it sits slightly above the national average, and its CMS staffing rating reflects that. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekday levels, which is common but worth knowing if you visit on Saturdays. Turnover stands at 36.7%, well below the national average of 45.8%, a meaningful sign that caregivers tend to stay. The tradeoff is a record of 15 deficiencies, including 4 tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was in September 2025, so the picture is current. It's a for-profit corporate home with a mixed inspection history but stable, above-average staffing.

Rennes Health And Rehab Center-Weston runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.09 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its inspection record backs that up: a five-star health inspection rating, with eight deficiencies on file and none of them causing harm or involving abuse. A five on quality measures rounds it out. Two things worth knowing before you decide. Turnover sits at 52%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so the staff you meet may not be the staff there in a year. And weekend coverage drops roughly 12% below weekday levels, which is when families tend to visit and notice things. Corporate-owned and for-profit, inspected most recently in March 2026.

Chippewa Manor runs on a strong staffing base: 4.70 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average, which earns it a top staffing mark of 5/5. That cushion thins on weekends, when hours drop about 15% below the home's own weekday pace, worth asking about if your family visits mostly on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 45.2%, nearly identical to the national rate of 45.8%, so continuity of caregivers is a typical concern rather than an outlier. The current inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse, and the most recent inspection was March 2026.

Villa Maria runs a leaner nursing floor than most, 3.78 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national figure, and weekends dip about 15% below what the home staffs during the week. What stands out is retention: 31% turnover against a 45.8% national average means the people who work here tend to stay, which matters more than a small gap in hours. Inspections are current, and the record shows 6 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, against a 4/5 health inspection rating. For-profit partnership ownership is worth knowing, but the staffing score and low turnover are the real story here. Weigh that harm-level finding carefully.

Nurse staffing sits at 3.17 hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, so families should ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. What stands out is the 26.7% annual turnover, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests a more stable crew than most. Nine deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with an inspection as recent as January 2025.

Timber Ridge is county-owned, and that shows in the numbers: 4.96 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with turnover at 33.3% versus 45.8% nationally. Weekend staffing dips about 12% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about. The tradeoff is inspection history, 16 deficiencies on record, six of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. The most recent state visit was February 2025. Strong staffing and quality scores coexist here with a longer-than-ideal deficiency list, so read the inspection reports yourself before deciding.
