Rolling Hills Rehab And Care Ctr runs 75 certified beds in Bridgeport under for-profit limited liability ownership, and the numbers behind its record are hard to read as anything but serious. Nurse staffing sits at 3.03 hours per resident day, roughly 22% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 7% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover of 63.3% against a national 45.8%. Its current record carries 77 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and nine abuse-related, plus a $90,558 fine. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care, and it holds one out of five stars on both health inspections and staffing.
Heritage Healthcare of Lyndhurst runs on thin staffing: 3.65 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 13% leaner than weekdays. The bigger problem is who stays, turnover hits 73.1% a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, so residents cycle through a lot of unfamiliar faces. The inspection record backs that up: 73 deficiencies, including four at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus $149,620 in fines across two penalties. That combination, one-star inspections and one-star staffing, corporate for-profit ownership, a recent April 2025 survey, is what drives the grade down, whatever the quality measures say.
Ardmore Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare runs 3.30 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average, and weekend staffing dips about 4% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinnest when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 68.9% 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 10 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus two fines totaling $12,606. Inspectors were last in on February 27, 2025.
Willow Park runs on 3.09 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip even further below its own weekday levels. That thin coverage sits alongside a 66.7% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents are constantly changing. The current inspection record carries 20 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one tied to abuse, and CMS has fined the home twice for a combined $60,371. All three of its federal star ratings land at one out of five.
Edmond Health Care Center runs on thin staffing and a lot of turnover. Nurses give 3.53 hours of care per resident each day, under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 36% below the home's own weekday levels. More than eight in ten staff members left over the past year, against a national rate near 46%. Inspectors have cited 50 deficiencies, four of them at the level where residents were harmed or put in immediate jeopardy, and nine tied to abuse. The home has paid eight fines totaling $71,283. State surveyors last visited in January 2026. County records list the owner as a for-profit limited liability company.
If you're weighing Homestead of Hugo for someone you love, the staffing numbers are the first thing to sit with. At 2.91 nurse hours per resident per day, this for-profit home runs about a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop further below its own weekday level, meaning the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit and when backup is hardest to find. Turnover sits near 71%, well above the national 46%, so the people providing that care are cycling through fast. The inspection record backs up the concern: 43 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $33,262 in fines. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, staffing, sit at one out of five.
Forest Park runs on 3.30 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent under the national average, and weekend coverage drops further below its own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 71.9 percent against a national figure near 46, which means the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. The inspection record backs that up: 109 deficiencies, five of them at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with five fines totaling $161,919. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. The most recent inspection was March 2025. If you're weighing this one, ask about weekend staffing and how they keep experienced aides.
Kadima Rehabilitation & Nursing At Lititz runs 42 beds, and the numbers behind its standing are worth knowing before you visit. Nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, about 10% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover is the starkest figure: 82.1% annually against a national rate near 46%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new to the building. The current inspection record carries 33 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. Inspectors last visited on July 18, 2025.
Wallingford Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 193 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth sitting with. Nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends drop about 7% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the harder signal: 62.8% annually against a 45.8% national average, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new to the building. Then there's the inspection record: 50 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, six abuse-related, and $282,733 in fines. The most recent inspection was December 2024.
Carlisle Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a 150-bed for-profit home that Medicare flags for its worst-performing tier, the Special Focus Facility program. The numbers behind that: a one-star rating across all three CMS categories, 63 deficiencies on record including four involving harm or jeopardy and two tied to abuse, plus $40,055 in fines. Nurse staffing sits at 3.19 hours per resident day, about 17% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 9% thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover is 61.3% a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents are constantly new. If you're considering this place, ask hard questions about who's actually on the floor.
Kadima Rehabilitation & Nursing At Campbelltown runs 53 beds in Palmyra, and the numbers here are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.32 hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, about 8% below the home's own weekday level. Meanwhile, annual turnover hits 84.1% against a national average of 45.8%, so the aides and nurses cycling through the building rarely stay long.
The inspection record tells the same story: 74 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and a one-star rating across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which it reserves for the country's most persistently troubled homes.
Midtown Oaks runs 3.52 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 7% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 57.4% against a 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses cycling through are often new to the building. The inspection record carries 108 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $99,042 and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. The most recent inspection was February 27, 2026. A for-profit LLC operates the 120-bed home. If you're considering this one, ask directly how they're fixing weekend staffing and what's changed since that February survey.
Smyrna Care Center runs on thin staffing even by industry standards, 3.22 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping further below its own weekday numbers. That gap matters more when you look at turnover: 65% of staff leave each year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the harder read. Thirty deficiencies, six of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and one tied to abuse. The last full inspection was February 2020, more than five years ago. Corporate ownership, 125 beds. Families deserve to know all of this before deciding.
Avir At Athens runs on 2.92 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about 13% below what the home already provides during the week. That thin coverage shows up elsewhere: annual turnover is 57.5% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses your family meets may not be there in six months. The inspection record carries 22 deficiencies, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way and four tied to abuse, with $243,325 in fines across four penalties. The most recent inspection was February 2026. A 112-bed for-profit partnership, it's licensed and it takes Medicare and Medicaid, but the staffing and inspection numbers are the ones to ask about directly.
Graham Oaks runs on 2.99 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends are thinner still, about 14 percent lighter than its own weekdays. That staffing picture comes with a 94.4 percent annual turnover rate, more than double the national figure, meaning the aides and nurses your family member sees are, more likely than not, new to the building within the year. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, three serious enough to put residents in harm's way and four tied to abuse, with $34,690 in fines. A for-profit LLC owns it. The most recent inspection was January 2025.
Harrisonburg Health & Rehab Center runs on thin staffing. At 3.17 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 18 percent below the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 14 percent beneath its own weekday level. That shortfall shows in the numbers: 60 percent annual turnover, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, and a one-out-of-five CMS staffing rating.
The inspection record is heavier still, 75 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, 10 abuse-related, plus two fines totaling $128,943. The last inspection was May 2022, so the record is old. Federal ownership doesn't change any of this. If you're considering it, ask what's changed since that inspection and how they cover weekends.
The numbers here are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.23 hours per resident day, well under the national average of 3.86, and it thins out further on weekends, not the pattern you want when families visit less and oversight is lighter. Staff turnover is the bigger tell: 62.2% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago.
Then there's the inspection record, 59 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level, twelve tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $108,698. That last inspection was April 2023, so this record has had time to stand.
Westwood Center runs 60 certified beds in Bluefield under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, but weekends drop roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 61.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. The current inspection record carries 46 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $159,612. Its last inspection was August 2024.
Rosedale runs on thin nursing coverage: 3.10 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday level. Turnover compounds it, nearly two-thirds of staff leave each year against a national rate of about 46%, so the people at the bedside keep changing. The inspection record is where the real weight sits: 101 deficiencies, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse, and a $73,788 fine. The last full inspection was September 2023, so that record is getting old, which isn't the same as getting better.
Woodstock Valley runs on 2.98 nurse hours per resident per day, about a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop another 14% below its own weekday staffing. The current inspection record carries 115 deficiencies, including five at the level where residents were actually harmed or put in immediate jeopardy, plus eight tied to abuse. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the homes with the longest-running patterns of poor care, and the two fines on record total $174,324. Staff turnover at 43.6% is roughly in line with the national average, so the problem isn't churn alone. It's thin coverage layered on repeated, serious inspection failures.
