Summers Healthcare Center runs 3.07 nurse hours per resident day, about a fifth below the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping roughly 11% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage sits behind a one-star inspection record carrying 62 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus $179,295 in fines. The federal government has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of serious problems. Turnover at 43.5% is slightly better than average, but it doesn't offset what inspections found.
Bluestone Health and Rehabilitation is a 60-bed for-profit home in Bluefield, and the numbers here deserve your full attention before you tour. Nurse staffing sits at 2.98 hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends run about 12 percent thinner than weekdays, so the coverage gap widens exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the harder problem: 77 deficiencies on file, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $76,979. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of serious problems.
Majestic Care Of Hopemont has 98 certified beds and runs a for-profit corporate operation, and its staffing numbers are the hard part to square. Total nurse staffing sits at 4.37 hours per resident day, above the national average of 3.86, but weekend coverage drops about 6% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover is 94.8% against a national average of 45.8%. So the hours are there on paper, but the people filling them keep leaving. The inspection record shows 52 deficiencies, including 5 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 abuse-related, with a $57,116 fine and a February 2026 inspection. CMS rated staffing 1 out of 5 and health inspections 1 out of 5.
Amethyst Health Of Wausau carries six deficiencies classified at the harm or jeopardy level, six tied to abuse, and forty-five total on its current record, that's an unusually heavy inspection load, and it's why CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program. Staffing looks decent on paper at 4.17 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, but weekend coverage drops roughly 9% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 62.2% against a national average of 45.8%. Six fines totaling $100,976 round out the picture. The most recent inspection was September 4, 2025, so the record is current. A for-profit limited liability company owns the 80-bed home.
The nurse staffing here runs about 3.65 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, so it's understaffed on paper before you get to weekends, which dip roughly 10% below the facility's own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 60.3% compared to 45.8% nationally, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. Fifty-five deficiencies sit on the current record, ten of them at the harm or jeopardy level and twelve abuse-related, with six fines totaling $182,024, and CMS has placed Evansville Manor in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent record of serious problems. A 4/5 quality measure rating doesn't offset a 1/5 inspection rating.
Amethyst Health Of Brown Deer has 86 deficiencies on its current record, and seven of them were serious enough to cause actual harm or put residents in immediate jeopardy, four tied to abuse. It's in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, the federal watchlist for homes with a pattern of persistent problems, and it's carrying $276,756 in fines. Nurse staffing sits at 4.51 hours per resident day, well above the national figure, but that headline number hides a 65.5% annual turnover rate and weekends that run thinner than weekdays. Ownership is for-profit corporate, and the last inspection was February 2026. High staffing hours aren't offsetting what inspectors keep finding here.
Edenbrook Sheboygan runs on 3.26 nursing hours per resident day, about 16% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 12% below what the home manages on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 55.1% against a 45.8% national average, so nearly half the nursing team is new each year, which matters more when you're relying on that team for daily care. The inspection record is where things get serious: 37 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with $202,946 in fines across three penalties. The most recent inspection was April 2025. Corporate-owned, 121 beds.
The numbers here are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.63 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 9% thinner than weekdays, meaning the shifts where families often visit are the ones with the least coverage. Staff turnover of 64.8% is well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents change often. The inspection record shows 125 deficiencies, including 12 at harm or jeopardy level and 11 abuse-related, with $187,064 in fines. CMS has placed this corporate-owned home in its Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for the homes with the most persistent problems.
Casper Mountain Rehabilitation and Care Center is a 120-bed for-profit home in Casper, and the numbers are hard to read. Nurse staffing sits at 2.80 hours per resident day, roughly 27% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 13% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 64.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. The current record shows 52 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $62,647 fine. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for the homes with the most persistent problems.
Polaris Rehabilitation and Care Center is a for-profit home in Cheyenne with 105 certified beds, and the numbers tell a story worth paying attention to. Nurse staffing sits at 3.49 hours per resident day, about 10% under the national average, and it drops roughly 15% further on weekends, while annual turnover hits 69% against a national figure of 45.8%. That churn matters at the bedside. The inspection record is the sharper concern: 39 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and a $62,647 fine. CMS has placed this home in its Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for the homes with the most persistent problems. The most recent inspection was January 15, 2026.
Big Horn runs on thinner staffing than most homes, about 3.28 nurse hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends dip below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 56.5%, well above the national 45.8%, so the people around your family member keep changing. CMS has flagged the inspection record at its lowest star, with 46 deficiencies on file, three serious enough to cause harm and seven tied to abuse. That record, plus Special Focus Facility status, is what sits behind the failing grade here.
Shepherd of the Valley runs 192 certified beds in Casper under corporate ownership that changed hands within the past year. The numbers that stand out: a one-star health inspection rating, 39 deficiencies on the current record, including seven serious enough to put residents in harm's way and three tied to abuse. Staffing sits at 3.26 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national average, and weekends run about 18 percent thinner than weekdays. Add 47.4 percent annual turnover and $97,031 in fines across five penalties. When a home changes ownership while carrying that inspection record, families should ask who's actually running the building day to day.
Worland Health and Rehabilitation runs on thin nurse staffing, 3.25 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 9% below what the home manages on weekdays. The inspection record is the bigger concern: fifteen deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, which is why CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program. A single fine of $6,788 is on file, and the last inspection came in March 2025. For-profit corporate ownership, 87 certified beds. If you're considering this home for someone you love, ask pointed questions about weekend coverage and how the abuse-related findings were corrected.
Lakewood Healthcare Center in Downey is a 290-bed for-profit home with 4.15 total nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, but that one bright spot is doing a lot of heavy lifting. The inspection record is where the trouble sits: 124 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, 16 abuse-related, and three fines totaling $128,597, which is why CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program. Staffing also thins on weekends, dropping about 8% below its own weekday level, and the last inspection was December 18, 2025. If you're considering this home, ask specifically what the abuse-related findings involved and how the facility is addressing them.
Majestic Mountain Care Center runs on 3.48 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekend coverage slips a bit further below its own weekday levels. That staffing gap shows up in a 69% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, and a two-star staffing rating. The inspection record is the harder read: 63 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, and $252,683 in fines. CMS has placed this for-profit, LLC-owned home in its Special Focus Facility program, and the most recent inspection was July 2025.
Valley Vista runs 72 beds in North Hollywood under for-profit LLC ownership, and the inspection record is the first thing that stands out: 114 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 14 tied to abuse. The last inspection was this past July, so that record is current, not stale. Staffing looks decent on paper at 4.07 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 12% below weekdays, and turnover sits at 60.6% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents keep changing.
Riverside Postacute Care holds 188 certified beds and runs on nurse staffing that lands at 3.84 hours per resident day, essentially even with the national average, not above it in any meaningful way, and weekends dip about 4% below what the home staffs on weekdays. The bigger issue is who stays: annual turnover hits 61.3% against a national 45.8%, so a large share of the people providing care are new to the building. That instability shows up in the record: 170 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level, 15 tied to abuse, and $76,211 in CMS fines. Federal regulators have placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for the homes with the most persistent problems.
Antelope Valley Care Center holds 199 certified beds in Lancaster under for-profit LLC ownership, and its record carries real weight: 170 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level and eleven tied to abuse, with $124,690 in fines and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. Staffing sits at 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 10% thinner than weekdays, and the staffing star rating is only 2 of 5. Annual turnover of 44.3% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, yet the inspection rating remains 1 of 5 despite a recent survey in August 2025.
Maclay Healthcare Center has 141 certified beds in Sylmar, and it's owned by a for-profit limited liability company. Nurse staffing runs about 4.10 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, with weekend coverage about 9% thinner than weekdays, and staff turnover at 43.5% sits just under the national figure. Those numbers aren't the problem. The inspection record is: 185 deficiencies, 12 at harm or jeopardy level, 23 abuse-related, and $384,678 in fines across seven penalties. CMS has placed this home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of serious problems. Its last inspection was January 16, 2026. Strong quality scores can't offset that inspection history.
Studio City Rehabilitation Center has real staffing strength: 4.60 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with turnover at 29.3% compared to 45.8% nationally. That's a workforce that mostly stays put, and it shows up in the quality measure rating.
The inspection record tells a different story. CMS has this for-profit, 181-bed home in its Special Focus Facility program, the designation reserved for the most persistently troubled homes, with 108 deficiencies on the current record, three at harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $45,604 are on file, and the last inspection was August 2025. Good staffing alone hasn't produced a safe building here.
