Advena Living At Fountainview runs lean on staff. At 3.18 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 18% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 15% below its own weekday coverage. That thin margin shows up in the workforce itself: 72.2% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses your family member sees are frequently new. The inspection record carries 35 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $30,566. The most recent inspection was January 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures score low against inspection and staffing marks that land mid-range.
Louisburg Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center runs about 3.49 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends dip another 11% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 38.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people who are there tend to stay. What stands out is the inspection record: 24 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a $19,218 fine, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. The quality measure rating of 1 out of 5 is the weakest mark in the file. For-profit ownership through a limited liability company, 60 beds.
Bradford Heights runs on thin nursing coverage, 3.18 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12% below what the home itself manages Monday through Friday. That shortfall shows up in CMS's staffing rating, which sits at the lowest mark, and in turnover of 57.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses at the bedside keep changing. Inspectors logged 22 deficiencies on the current record, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, with the last visit in September 2025. The limited liability company ownership takes profit out of the picture, but the staffing numbers are the ones families should weigh.
Glenview runs 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 8 percent below the home's own weekday staffing. That thin coverage compounds with a 58.7 percent annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the aides and nurses at the bedside keep changing. Inspectors logged 11 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, with the most recent visit in June 2025. The company is a for-profit LLC. Taken together, low hours, high churn, a 1-out-of-5 staffing rating, the pattern is a home running lean, and families should ask directly how many aides are on the floor on a Sunday evening.
Harvest Manor is a for-profit LLC home in Denham Springs with 171 certified beds, and the numbers behind its record are hard to dress up. Nurses provide 3.35 hours of care per resident per day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, and weekend staffing drops about 13 percent below its own weekday level, meaning the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Its inspection history includes 31 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $304,311 and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. Staff turnover, at 44.2 percent, actually sits slightly under the national average, so the trouble looks less like a retention problem and more like persistent shortfalls in care and oversight.
Cape Cod Post Acute Care in Brewster runs 135 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers here deserve a close look before you decide anything. Nurse staffing sits at 3.35 hours per resident day, about 13 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 10 percent below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover is 50 percent, higher than the 45.8 percent national figure, and the inspection record shows 69 deficiencies, including 8 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse. One fine totaling $298,483 is on file, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025. Ask about weekend coverage and turnover directly.
Oak Knoll runs 123 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.79 hours per resident day, close enough that the bigger issue is the weekends, which run about 12 percent thinner than weekdays. Turnover at 41.4 percent is actually a little better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so retention isn't the weak spot here. The inspection record is: 27 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a single $211,819 fine. With quality and staffing each at two stars and the last inspection dated February 2026, the pattern is thin coverage on weekends alongside a serious citation history.
The Springs at Rochester Hills has a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating and 80 deficiencies on its current record, 12 of them abuse-related, with 6 cited at the level where residents were actually harmed or put in jeopardy. Fines total $150,532 across four penalties, and that last inspection was recent, dated December 2025.
Staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, slightly under the 3.86 national average, and weekends drop about 14% from the home's own weekday levels. A 60.2% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, means the aides and nurses working weekends are often new. For-profit, individually owned, 126 beds. Worth asking administrators directly how they're addressing the abuse citations before you decide.
Optalis Health And Rehabilitation At St. Francis runs about 3.04 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 21 percent under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, which sit about 11 percent below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover hits 60.4 percent against a national 45.8 percent, meaning most of the people caring for your family member are new to the building. The inspection record shows 40 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $131,073 and a February 2026 inspection. Corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers tell you what that combination has meant here.
Rock Point Nursing Center runs on 3.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 55.6% against a national 45.8%, so aides and nurses are cycling out faster than average. The inspection record looks steadier: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 21 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last survey was March 2026. Quality measures score 2 out of 5, staffing 1 out of 5. The corporation that owns it keeps the building compliant on paper while running thin on the floor.
Apple Ridge runs on thin staffing. At 2.74 nurse hours per resident per day, it's about 29% below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip even lower than its own weekdays. That shortfall shows up in its one-out-of-five staffing rating, and it's compounded by turnover: 62.9% of staff leave each year, against a national average of 45.8%. The inspection record carries 39 deficiencies, including 7 tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. The last inspection was September 11, 2024. Quality measures also land at two out of five. This is a for-profit corporate home where the numbers point to a persistent staffing problem rather than a one-time slip.
Country Aire Retirement Center runs 60 certified beds in Lewistown under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing to look at: 2.97 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover sits at 61.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses caring for residents are often new to the building. The inspection record shows 66 deficiencies, six of them abuse-related, and CMS gave the health inspection and staffing domains one star each. The last inspection was July 2024.
Current River Nursing Center runs on about 3.27 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly 15 percent below the national average, and weekend coverage drops further still, about a tenth thinner than its own weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 73.5 percent against a national figure near 46 percent, so the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. The inspection record shows 42 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, and the last state visit was in August 2025. All three CMS star categories land at two out of five. For-profit corporate ownership, thin staffing, and heavy turnover are the pattern here, not a single bad month.
Brunswick Health Care Center runs 60 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are on the staffing side. Nurse coverage sits at 3.77 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and it dips roughly 7% further on weekends, but the bigger signal is a 75% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure. That kind of churn means residents see a rotating cast of caregivers. The inspection record is heavy: 53 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, with a $15,143 fine and a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Quality measures score well, but consistent staffing and a clean inspection history are what keep people safe day to day.
Potosi Manor runs on thinner staffing than most homes, 3.28 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 10% leaner than weekdays. That matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when residents still need the same care with fewer hands on deck.
The bigger issue is turnover: 74.6% of nursing staff leaving annually, against a national rate near 46%. Combine that with 21 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, and a $13,627 fine, and you get a home with real compliance problems behind its October 2024 inspection. The corporate owner operates it for profit, so ask who's actually on the floor on a Sunday afternoon before you decide.
Fulton Manor runs on thin staffing: 2.60 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 13% below what the home manages on weekdays. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and problems surface. Staff turnover sits at 85.9%, nearly double the national rate, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. The inspection record shows 49 deficiencies, six tied to abuse, with the most recent survey in January 2025. The corporate owner operates for profit. Taken together, the numbers describe a home where care depends heavily on a workforce that keeps changing.
Aspire Senior Living Excelsior Springs runs 108 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 3.01 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 22% under the national average, weekend coverage drops roughly 14% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover of 59.6% means well over half the nursing staff leaves each year, national turnover runs 45.8%. The current record lists 34 deficiencies, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was recent, January 2026. A 3/5 on health inspections and 2/5 on quality measures suggest the care itself isn't the main concern here, the thin, unstable staffing is.
Good Shepherd Lutheran Home runs 84 certified beds in Blair under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 11% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 70.3% is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for your relative are likely new and still learning the building. Add a one-star health inspection rating, 34 deficiencies on record including one at harm level and three abuse-related, and a May 2025 inspection, and you're looking at a home with real, documented problems. Worth asking hard questions before committing.
Casa De Oro Center in Las Cruces runs 158 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the numbers that matter most here aren't good. The health inspection record sits at the lowest federal rating, with 97 deficiencies on file, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and nine tied to abuse. That combination is why CMS has placed this home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the country's most troubled nursing homes, and the two fines totaling $68,554 reflect it. Staffing tells a quieter story: 3.44 hours per resident day lands about 11% under the national average, weekends run roughly 13% thinner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 58.5% against a national 45.8%.
Briarcliff Manor Center runs about 3.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average, and staffing drops further on weekends. That shortfall shows up in a 55.6% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, and a one-out-of-five staffing rating from CMS. Inspections tell a harder story: 33 deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus $97,282 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was in March 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale. Census size is 120 certified beds under for-profit partnership ownership. Quality measures score well, but that sits against thin staffing and a two-out-of-five inspection rating.
