Atlas Post Acute At Woodbury Country Club reports 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, but that number hides two problems: weekend staffing drops about 11% below its own weekday level, and 56% of staff turn over each year against a national 45.8%. The inspection record is the harder read, 42 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level, four abuse-related, and $561,530 in fines across two cases, all reflected in a one-star health inspection rating. Memory care and rehab units can look fine day to day while the paperwork shows repeated, serious problems; the most recent inspection was April 2025, so the record is current, not stale.
Elm Manor runs on thin staffing: 2.84 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 85.7%, nearly double the national rate, so the people providing that care are constantly changing. The health inspection record shows 35 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, but a one-star inspection rating still reflects repeated problems, most recently cited in August 2024. Quality measures score well, which may reflect good clinical tracking, but that doesn't offset what daily coverage looks like. For-profit corporate ownership and 46 beds mean limited margin for error when someone calls out. Ask how they cover weekend shifts.
Rockaway Care Center runs 228 certified beds in Far Rockaway, and the numbers that stand out are on the inspection side. Thirty-two deficiencies sit on its current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, and one fine of $135,193. Staffing is thin: 3.14 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 10% below its own weekday level. Turnover at 45.1% tracks close to the national rate, so the problem isn't retention so much as how few hands are scheduled. The last inspection was in December 2025. A family considering this home should ask directly how the abuse-related findings were resolved.
Buffalo Center For Rehabilitation And Nursing runs 200 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing looks decent on paper, 4.22 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average. But that number hides a lot. Weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 60.2% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people providing that care are new and likely to leave. The inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 36 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, eight tied to abuse, and $139,721 in fines. A 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and a June 2025 inspection round that out.
White Oak Manor-Shelby runs 160 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and the staffing numbers are the first thing a family should look at. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12 percent below its own weekday level, meaning the thinnest coverage lands when families often visit. Staff turnover of 62.8 percent, against a national figure near 46 percent, suggests aides and nurses are cycling through faster than residents can get used to them. Eighteen deficiencies sit on the current record, five serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy and two tied to abuse. Five fines total $42,972.
Edgecombe Health Center By Harborview runs about 3.10 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 11% below its own weekday pace. That staffing level earned a 2 out of 5 from CMS, and the quality measures came in at 2 as well. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse; the last inspection was March 2025. Turnover at 37.2% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem here isn't retention, it's how few hours each resident gets, especially on weekends.
The Oaks runs on 3.37 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 8% below what it manages on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 65.8% against a national 45.8%, so nearly two of every three caregivers left last year, that's a lot of unfamiliar faces for 131 residents. The current record shows 24 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was August 2025. All three CMS ratings, health inspections, quality measures, staffing, come in at 2 out of 5. Corporate-owned and for-profit, this home isn't failing outright, but staffing and retention are where it's weakest.
Highland House runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes in the country, 3.50 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip even further, about 9% below its own weekday level. That matters more than it sounds, because the stretch of the week with the least clinical oversight is also when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 68.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses caring for residents are often new to the building and to each other. The record shows 14 deficiencies, including one tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. Its last full inspection was in March 2026.
Wellington Rehabilitation and Healthcare runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes in the country, about 3.36 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 13 percent under the national figure, with weekends dipping further below its own weekday pace. The inspection record shows 24 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a $15,642 fine. Staff turnover sits at 46.2 percent, right around the national rate. With a for-profit corporate owner and a November 2025 inspection, the numbers point to a home where you'd want to ask specific questions about who's on the floor at night and on weekends before deciding.
Gastonia Health & Rehab Center runs on thin staffing and a lot of turnover. At 3.56 nurse hours per resident per day, it sits about 8% below the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday numbers, meaning the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. The bigger concern is 84.6% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, so most of the people caring for your relative are new and likely to leave within the year. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, four at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $15,808 in fines. The last inspection was December 2025.
The Meadows On University runs a for-profit LLC with 95 beds, and the numbers show some strain. Nurse staffing sits at 3.71 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, so families visiting Saturday or Sunday may notice thinner attention. Staff turnover is the bigger flag: 65% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning nearly two-thirds of the nursing team turns over each year. The current inspection record carries 20 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a $41,041 fine. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, land at 2 out of 5.
If you're weighing Beachwood Pointe for someone you love, the staffing numbers deserve your full attention. Nurses provide about 3.08 hours of care per resident each day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 7 percent thinner than weekdays. That thin coverage sits alongside a 67.8 percent annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, meaning the people providing care are constantly changing. Inspectors have cited 46 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, and the last visit was July 2024. The resident outcome scores look better than the staffing picture, but the two don't cancel each other out.
Majestic Care of Middletown runs 200 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits about 11% under the national average at 3.43 nurse hours per resident day. Weekends drop roughly another 12% below its own weekday coverage, which is when falls and infections tend to get missed. Turnover, at 45.3%, is essentially the national rate. What separates this home is its inspection record: 60 deficiencies, including 7 tied to abuse and 2 at harm or jeopardy level, plus a $108,164 fine. The most recent inspection was June 2025. CMS rates its staffing and health inspections 1 out of 5 stars each.
Galion Meadows runs on 3.44 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday pace. That thin coverage sits alongside 66% annual staff turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents are, on average, fairly new to the building and often replaced. Its record shows 71 deficiencies, including six tied to abuse and two serious enough to put residents in harm's way; the most recent inspection was in May 2026. For-profit ownership under an LLC, 62 beds, and a one-star inspection history round out a home where the quality measures look far better than the day-to-day staffing does.
Best Care Health and Rehabilitation runs 101 certified beds in Wheelersburg under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.51 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 56% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves within a year. The record shows 43 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations. Its last inspection was October 2024, and the health inspection and staffing ratings both came back at 2 out of 5.
Aventura At West Park runs on thin staffing: 3.69 nurse hours per resident day sits about 4% under the national average, weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 68.8% against a national norm of 45.8%. That churn matters more than any single inspection finding. The record backs it up, 41 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, seven tied to abuse, and a $16,801 fine, with the last inspection in April 2024. Corporate for-profit ownership, 125 beds, and a CMS staffing rating of 1 out of 5. What the quality measure score of 4 out of 5 reflects is the clinical data the home reports on its own residents; it doesn't offset what inspectors found or how fast the staff turns over. Ask about direct-care staffing on weekends before you decide anything.
Astoria Place Of Waterville runs 90 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at. At 3.29 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 15% under the national average of 3.86, weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday level, and turnover hits 47.6%. The inspection record is heavier: 48 deficiencies, including five at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $59,889 and a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Quality measures score well, but that reflects charted care, not the staffing and oversight under it.
Hawthorn Glen runs about 3.14 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly 19% under the national average, and weekends drop another 7% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 66.2% against a national 45.8%, nearly two-thirds of the nursing staff leaving in a year. The current record shows 37 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was July 31, 2025, so the picture is current. Ownership is a for-profit corporation, and the staffing star comes in at 1 out of 5 while quality measures score 4, a split worth asking about directly.
Ridgewood Manor runs about 3.32 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops another 14% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 71.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses caring for your relative are likely to change often. The inspection record shows 39 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with $87,789 in fines across two penalties. Quality measures look strong on paper, but staffing is where this home falls short, and that gap is what matters day to day.
Hopkins Rehabilitation and Care Center runs 90 beds in Middleburg Heights under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing works out to roughly the national average on paper. But look at the shape of it: staff turnover sits at 80.3 percent against a national norm near 46 percent, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. That churn shows up in the inspection record too, 30 deficiencies, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way, three tied to abuse, and $76,040 in fines. The most recent inspection was December 2024. Quality measures score well, but consistent staffing and a clean safety record are what families actually live with day to day.
