Carlyle Senior Care of Aiken runs 86 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is genuinely its strong point, 4.10 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below weekday levels, and turnover sits at 44.3%, slightly better than the national 45.8%. Where the picture darkens is inspections and care quality: both CMS ratings sit at 1 out of 5, with 11 deficiencies on the current record, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse. That's a lot of serious findings for a home this size, and it points to problems that adequate staffing hours alone haven't prevented.
Life Care Center of Hilton Head runs about 3.69 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekend staffing drops around 14% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 56.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, that's more than half the nursing staff leaving in a year. The current inspection record shows 15 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,281. Its most recent inspection was July 17, 2025. Quality measure scores look strong, but the inspection history and staffing pattern tell a different story.
Mccormick Post Acute runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts: 3.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent under the national average, with weekends about 11 percent thinner than weekdays. That thin coverage shows up in the inspection record, a one-star health inspection rating, 21 deficiencies including three at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus $77,101 in fines across two penalties. Staff turnover sits at 40.9 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure, and the quality measure rating is strong at five stars, but those measures lean on resident assessments rather than day-to-day care capacity. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so the picture is current.
Senior Care Of Marion runs 95 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers worth knowing sit in its inspection record: 15 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, and two tied to abuse. Turnover runs at 54.7%, well above the 45.8% national average, which matters because it means the people caring for residents keep changing. CMS gave it 2 out of 5 stars on both health inspections and quality measures. A recent inspection in September 2025 didn't undo any of that, and two fines totaling $24,054 are on file. If you're considering this one, ask directly about staffing stability and how those abuse-related findings were resolved.
Spearfish Canyon Healthcare runs 105 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where your attention should go first. At 3.37 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 13 percent under the national average, and weekends drop another 13 percent below its own weekday levels, so the coverage gap widens exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 58.8 percent against a 45.8 percent national figure means caregivers are cycling through steadily, which matters more than any single star rating. The inspection record backs that up: 21 deficiencies, including four tied to abuse and one at the harm level, with a $9,718 fine. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the record is current, not stale.
Centerville Care and Rehab runs 42 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.31 hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends thin out further, running about 18% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters when you're thinking about who's on hand on a Saturday night.
The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. One fine totaling $55,059 has been levied. Staff turnover comes in at 43.9%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, and the most recent inspection was May 2025. The staffing and quality measure ratings both land at 2 out of 5.
Diamond Care Center runs on thin coverage, 2.44 nurse staffing hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 11% below its own weekdays. CMS gives that staffing a 1 out of 5, and the health inspection record matches: 25 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus $69,512 in fines. Annual turnover sits at 54.5%, well above the national 45.8%, which makes it harder to hold onto the staff who know these 36 residents. The quality measure star of 4 out of 5 shows some care processes are being tracked well, and the last inspection was September 2025. But staffing and compliance are where families usually feel the difference day to day.
Nhc Healthcare, Springfield runs 107 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last inspection was December 3, 2025, recent enough that the record reflects current conditions. Those conditions include 14 deficiencies, three of them abuse-related and two at the harm or jeopardy level, plus a $122,070 federal fine. Nurse staffing sits at 3.50 hours per resident day, about 9% under the national average, weekends run roughly 9% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover is 54.6% against a national 45.8%. The five-star quality measure rating stands out against a one-star inspection rating, but quality measures are self-reported resident data, not an outside surveyor's findings. Staffing earns three stars.
Highlands Health And Rehabilitation Center runs 180 beds in Memphis under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.22 hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover is 53.6% against a national 45.8%. That combination shows up in the federal stars: 2 out of 5 for staffing and 2 for health inspections, with 16 deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level. No abuse citations, and quality measures score a middling 3. The last inspection was August 2022, so the record you're reading is more than a year old.
Wexford House runs 174 beds in Kingsport, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.04 hours per resident day, roughly 21% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday numbers, and annual turnover hits 65% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses you'd see most often are changing faster than average. The current record lists 15 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was in June 2025. Quality measures score mid-range while staffing lands at the bottom of CMS's scale, which is where the C comes from.
Tri State Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 116 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its current inspection record carries 15 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two tied to abuse. The health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5, and two fines totaling $14,852 are on file, with the most recent inspection dated December 2025. Nurse staffing comes in at 3.44 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover is 38.5%, which is lower than the 45.8% national figure, a genuine bright spot. If you're weighing this one, ask hard questions about how those harm-level findings were resolved.
Life Care Center of Athens runs on a corporate for-profit model with 128 certified beds, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.54 hours per resident day, about 8 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 10 percent below the home's own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover is genuinely better than most, at 29.4 percent against a national 45.8 percent, which suggests some stability in who's actually at the bedside. What pulls the record down is inspections: a one-star health inspection rating, 16 deficiencies on file including one at harm level and three tied to abuse. The last inspection was March 28, 2026.
The ownership is a for-profit limited liability company, and its 165 beds are staffed at 3.36 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, with weekends dropping about 18 percent below its own weekday coverage. That thinner weekend schedule matters because the inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus $20,050 in fines. The quality measure score is strong and turnover sits well below the national rate, so there are real strengths here, but the recent October 2024 inspection and the harm-level findings are what a family should ask about directly before deciding.
Grandview Post Acute runs 120 certified beds in Cookeville under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers are genuinely above average, 4.42 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86. That's worth something. But turnover sits at 54.4% versus 45.8% nationally, and weekend coverage drops about 8% below its own weekday level, so the people providing that care keep changing.
The inspection record is where things get harder to explain away: 37 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. CMS rated health inspections and quality measures both 1 out of 5, staffing 2 out of 5. Above-average hours don't offset that pattern on their own.
Meridian Care of Alice runs 201 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed in a way worth understanding. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.21 hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 14 percent below the home's own weekday level. The one number that looks better than average is turnover: 34.7 percent against a national 45.8 percent. But the inspection record is where the real concern lives: 18 deficiencies on file, four at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $211,990, with the most recent inspection dated March 2026. Strong quality measures and low turnover don't outweigh that harm-level history.
The Meadows runs on 2.90 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips even further below its own weekday levels. The current record shows 32 deficiencies, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with $35,731 in fines across two penalties. Staff turnover sits at 58.1%, well above the 45.8% national figure, under for-profit LLC ownership. The quality measure score of 4 out of 5 may look reassuring, but it stands against a 1 out of 5 inspection rating and a 2 out of 5 on staffing, the numbers families weigh most heavily. The most recent inspection was January 15, 2025, so the record is current.
Park View Care Center runs 179 certified beds in Fort Worth under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 4.02 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 10 percent below its own weekday coverage. That's the strongest part of the picture. The inspection record is where it gets harder to explain away: 62 deficiencies on file, including six at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse, with six fines totaling $299,019. Annual staff turnover runs 51.9 percent against a national average of 45.8 percent, so the people providing care keep changing. The most recent inspection was February 2026, recent enough that this record reflects current conditions, not an old one.
Denton Village by Purehealth runs 88 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.55 hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families tend to visit. The inspection record is the harder read: 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $55,112 fine, with the most recent inspection in September 2025. Staff turnover at 41.3% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and the 5/5 quality measure rating stands out against a 2/5 inspection score. The gap between those two numbers is worth asking about directly.
Patriot Heights runs 3.46 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends dip about 15% below what the home itself staffs Monday through Friday. That thin weekend coverage matters more when you look at the record: 25 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $28,033 in fines across two penalties. Annual turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. The quality measure score looks strong, but that reflects charted clinical outcomes, not whether enough hands are present on a Saturday. The last inspection was September 5, 2025.
Henderson Health & Rehabilitation Center runs 173 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.27 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 52.5% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over each year. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, plus one abuse-related finding and a $10,546 fine. The last inspection was May 2025. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are where the real story sits.
