Long Beach Care Center runs 4.43 nurse hours per resident day, about 15% above the national average of 3.86, but that staffing still only earns two stars from CMS, and weekend coverage dips roughly 4% below its own weekday levels. The real problem sits in its inspection record: 78 deficiencies, including 10 tied to abuse and 3 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, with $54,834 in fines across two cases. A recent September 2025 inspection doesn't erase that history. Quality measures look strong at four stars, yet strong numbers on paper can't outweigh a pattern this persistent.
Chestnut Ridge runs on 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 21.8% is roughly half the national rate, that kind of consistency usually shows up in daily care. But the inspection record is where the problems sit: 69 deficiencies on the current record, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $105,201. Weekend staffing also drops about 14% below weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. The most recent inspection was November 2025, so the record is current. Good staffing numbers and a bad survey history can both be true at once.
La Brea Rehabilitation Center runs 141 beds in Los Angeles under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the strongest card it holds, 4.55 nurse hours per resident day, about 18% above the national average, with turnover at 30.6% against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips roughly 6% below its own weekday level, so care thins out a bit on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is where the concern sits: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 98 deficiencies on the current record, including 6 at the harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse. One fine totaling $33,091 has been levied, and the last inspection was June 19, 2025.
University Park Healthcare Center has real staffing strengths: 4.05 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, with turnover at 41.3%, lower than the typical 45.8%. Weekends dip roughly 7% below weekday coverage, but that's a modest gap. The problem isn't the floor staff, it's the record. Seventy-seven deficiencies, 8 involving actual harm or jeopardy, 13 tied to abuse, and $230,606 in fines across four actions. A 1-out-of-5 inspection rating against a 4-out-of-5 on quality measures tells you the clinical metrics look fine on paper while the survey history says otherwise. This for-profit, LLC-owned home was inspected as recently as April 2026.
Lassen Nursing & Rehabilitation Center runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes nationally, about 3.65 hours per resident day against an average near 3.86, and the drop-off on weekends is the bigger issue, with staffing roughly a fifth lower than its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 60%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents' routines and catch changes early. The home carries 57 deficiencies on its current record, five tied to abuse, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level, and its last inspection was in October 2024. A for-profit LLC operates the 96-bed building, and its inspection and quality scores both sit at two stars out of five.
Bayberry runs 3.79 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends dip about 14% below its own weekdays, so your visit timing may matter more than the annual number suggests. Staff turnover is 35.1%, better than the 45.8% national rate, which means more familiar faces than at many homes this size, though 23 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm level and one abuse-related, are worth asking about directly. The last inspection was January 2026, so the record is recent. This is a for-profit LLC with 99 beds.
Keystone Post-Acute runs 65 beds in Fresno under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers look better on paper than they hold up in practice. Total nurse hours sit slightly above the national average, but weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, that's when gaps tend to show. Turnover is 47.1%, a bit worse than the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. The inspection record is the bigger issue: 48 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents at harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $42,764. The last inspection was in May 2025, so the record is current, not stale.
Pacific Villa runs about 4.06 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 5% above the national average, and its 36.7% turnover is meaningfully better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere. Those numbers matter, but the inspection record is what stands out: 79 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and 16 abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $41,809. A last inspection in February 2026 means the record is current, not stale. That mix explains a C grade: decent daily care hours and steadier-than-average staffing, undercut by a long and serious enforcement history at a for-profit, individually owned home. Weekend coverage runs about 8% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about directly.
Golden Haven Care Center runs 99 certified beds in Glendale under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.98 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays. The bigger problem is what inspectors have found: 73 deficiencies on the current record, including 8 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $74,602. That record produced a one-star health inspection rating, and staff turnover at 47.2% runs slightly above the national rate, so the people providing care keep changing. The most recent inspection was January 16, 2026.
Olympia Convalescent Hospital in Los Angeles runs 135 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is genuinely above average: 4.10 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 6% below its own weekday level, though, and turnover sits at 23.5%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a relatively steady crew.
The trouble is on the inspection side. Forty-two deficiencies are on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. Two of three CMS star ratings land at 2 out of 5, and a $8,278 fine is on file. The last inspection was May 2025. Good staffing alone doesn't offset that record.
Hampton Post Acute sits at 120 certified beds in Stockton, run by a for-profit limited liability company. Its nurse staffing comes in at 4.03 hours per resident day, modestly above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your family member gets on a Saturday may look different from a Tuesday. Turnover lands at 45.5%, essentially the national rate. What stands out is the inspection record: 133 deficiencies, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with $21,548 in fines and a one-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so that record is current, not stale.
Bridgeview Post Acute runs about 4.05 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 40.7% is better than the typical 45.8%. That's the good news. The problem sits on the inspection side: 67 deficiencies on the current record, including 8 tied to abuse and 4 serious enough to put residents at harm or jeopardy, with two fines totaling $51,796. Weekend staffing also drops about 8% below its own weekday level, so the coverage families see on a Tuesday isn't what they get on a Sunday. Inspectors were last in on January 9, 2026. Ask to see the plan of correction for those abuse deficiencies before you decide anything.
Bay View Rehabilitation Hospital runs 180 certified beds in Alameda, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.85 hours per resident day, essentially dead even with the national average, though weekends run about 9% thinner than weekdays, so coverage depends on when you visit. What stands out is retention: 21.6% annual turnover against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The inspection record is more of a mixed picture: 33 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, plus a $46,726 fine. Its most recent inspection was October 31, 2024, so that record is fairly current.
Fortuna Rehabilitation and Wellness Center runs 4.04 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, and its weekend staffing dips about 5% below its own weekday levels. That's decent coverage on paper, good enough for four stars on staffing and five on quality measures, but the inspection record tells a different story: 68 deficiencies, nine of them at harm or jeopardy level, ten tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $117,116. A 1-star health inspection rating with a November 2025 survey means regulators have found serious, repeated problems here. For-profit partnership ownership and a recent inspection don't change that math.
Park View Post Acute runs on better-than-average staffing, 4.49 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86, and its 30.1% turnover beats the 45.8% national figure, meaning you're more likely to see familiar faces than at the typical home. Weekends dip about 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. The caution is in the inspection record: 43 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, with a 2/5 inspection rating. A single $9,347 fine and a March 2026 inspection suggest the problems aren't purely historical.
Studebaker Healthcare Center is a 99-bed for-profit in Norwalk, and the staffing numbers are the bright spot: 4.48 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average, with weekend coverage about 11% thinner than weekdays. Turnover runs 44.1%, basically in line with the national figure. The trouble sits on the inspection side. A one-star health inspection rating comes with 108 deficiencies on the current record, including nine tied to abuse and one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level. One fine totaling $27,378 is on file, and the most recent inspection was February 2026. Strong hands-on care, weak compliance history, that's the tradeoff to weigh.
Northgate Postacute Care runs 52 certified beds in San Rafael under for-profit LLC ownership. Its total nurse staffing of 4.07 hours per resident day sits about 5% above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 6% below its own weekday level, and turnover at 45.5% is essentially the national rate. The concerning part is the inspection record: 63 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus seven fines totaling $126,631. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the record is current, not stale. Quality measures score well, but staffing and health inspection ratings both sit at 2 out of 5, worth asking about directly before you decide.
Staffing at Hollywood Premier is genuinely better than most: 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, and turnover of 19.8% is less than half the national rate. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below weekdays, but that's a modest gap. The problem sits on the inspection side. The current record carries 81 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with one fine of $17,342. The last inspection was in August 2025, so this is a recent picture, not old history. Good staffing can't offset that many serious findings, tour it, but ask hard questions about the abuse citations.
Sierra Vista runs 116 beds in Highland under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 2.46 hours per resident day, roughly 36% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday numbers, so coverage thins right when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 29.5%, meaningfully better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests the people who work here tend to stay. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. Its last inspection was February 2026. Quality measures score well; the health inspection side of the record is where the friction sits.
Landmark Medical Center runs 95 beds in Pomona under corporate for-profit ownership, and its record splits in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.36 hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, and weekends run about 9 percent thinner than weekdays. What stands out is staff retention: 26 percent turnover against a national average near 46 percent, which suggests people stay here. The trouble is inspection history. CMS gives it 1 out of 5 stars, with 54 deficiencies on the current record, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 12 tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Low turnover is real, but it hasn't kept the care problems out of the building.
