Bonterra runs on 2.96 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below what's typical nationally, and weekends dip another 9% below its own weekday numbers. That thin coverage sits behind a one-star staffing rating, and with 60% of staff leaving each year versus about 46% nationally, you're looking at a building that's constantly replacing the people who know your family member. The inspection record shows 37 deficiencies, including 7 serious enough to put residents in harm's way and 3 tied to abuse, with five fines totaling $48,039. Ownership is a for-profit partnership, and the most recent inspection closed April 30, 2026.
Mt Zion Health & Rehab runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes in the country, 3.22 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get even leaner, dropping roughly 12% below its own weekday staffing. That strain shows up in the workforce itself: 56.3% annual turnover means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record backs it up, with 51 deficiencies on file, including three at the level that put residents in harm's way and seven tied to abuse, plus a $47,700 fine. State surveyors last visited in February 2024.
Bria Of Godfrey runs on 3.25 nurse hours per resident per day, about 16 percent under the national average, and weekends drop another 13 percent below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and fewer hands are on the floor. Annual turnover sits at 77.4 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the aides and nurses caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building.
The inspection record backs that up: 44 deficiencies, 13 serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, and five fines totaling $209,961. The last inspection was August 2024, recent enough to reflect current conditions.
Fairview Rehab runs 2.80 nurse hours per resident day, well under the national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less hands-on time than the typical home. Weekend coverage dips about 4% below its own weekday levels, and more than half the nursing staff turns over each year, above the national rate. Inspectors have cited six deficiencies, two of them serious enough to put a resident in harm's way, with fines reaching $30,972. The most recent inspection was in May 2024. A for-profit limited liability company operates the 76-bed building.
Aperion Care Vincennes runs 170 beds under individual for-profit ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth knowing before you visit. Nurse staffing sits at 2.93 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays, so the hours when families tend to visit are often the hours with the least coverage. Staff turnover is 65.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely weren't there last year. The current inspection record carries 65 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated March 2026.
The staffing numbers at Edgemont Healthcare are where I'd start. At 2.92 nurse hours per resident per day, it runs about a quarter below the national average, and weekend coverage dips even further below its own weekday level. That matters more than any single inspection finding, because thin staffing tends to be the condition that produces everything else.
The record backs that up: 26 deficiencies, three of them at the level where a resident was actually harmed or put in jeopardy, plus three abuse-related citations and a $133,225 fine. Annual staff turnover sits at 100 percent, the entire nursing workforce turning over in a year, against a national rate near 46 percent. The most recent inspection was in July 2025, so this is current, not stale.
Chateau Living Center runs 215 certified beds in Kenner under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through slowly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.04 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a fifth less hands-on time than typical, and weekends run about 12% thinner than the home's own weekdays, so coverage drops exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection history is heavy: 58 deficiencies on the current record, including three at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $159,972 and a survey as recent as July 2025. Staff turnover of 47.5% sits just above the national 45.8%, meaning the people providing that already-lean care are frequently new.
Acadia St. Landry runs on thin coverage: 3.29 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 18% lighter than weekdays. Inspectors have cited 45 deficiencies, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, and the home carries $268,528 in federal fines. Its most recent inspection was March 11, 2026, so the record is current. The limited liability company that owns it operates for profit, and every CMS rating category, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, currently sits at one star out of five.
Nathan Richard Health Care Center runs on 1.72 nurse hours per resident per day, less than half the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing dips slightly further. That thin coverage shows in the numbers: a 68.6% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, and a 1-out-of-5 CMS staffing rating. Its inspection record carries 38 deficiencies, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $69,107 fine. State inspectors last visited in February 2025. For-profit corporate ownership, 68 certified beds, and a two-star inspection and quality history round out the picture.
Grand Manor runs on about 2.00 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly half the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 20% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage shows up in the record: 46 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, plus a $99,988 fine. Inspectors were last on site September 13, 2024, and the federal ratings sit at 2 for health inspections, 2 for quality measures, and 1 for staffing. The for-profit limited liability company that owns it has kept the building certified, but the numbers describe a home where residents get substantially less nursing time than most places in the country.
Amberwood Estates runs on 0.71 nurse staffing hours per resident day, that's about a fifth of the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 84.5%, well above the national 45.8%, so the people around your family member change often. Inspectors documented 67 deficiencies, six tied to abuse, with $19,760 in fines; the most recent inspection was February 2026. It's a for-profit LLC with 115 beds. If you're considering this one, ask specifically how they cover nursing hours on weekends and how they screen and train staff.
Belleview Care Center runs 90 certified beds in Saint Joseph under for-profit corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts. At 3.40 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 12% below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 59.8% against a national 45.8% means the aides and nurses your relative sees are cycling out faster than usual, which matters for anyone who needs consistent hands-on care. Add a two-out-of-five inspection rating, 53 deficiencies on the current record (two at harm level, six abuse-related), and $31,330 in fines across two actions, and the picture is a home that has struggled on multiple fronts at once.
Spring River runs on 2.95 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop another 13 percent below its own weekday levels. That thin coverage shows up in the inspection record: 67 deficiencies, three tied to abuse and two serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus $111,643 in federal fines. Staff turnover sits at 60.5 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the people providing care keep changing. CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the country's most persistently troubled nursing homes. The most recent inspection was December 12, 2024.
Campbell Hall Rehabilitation Center is a for-profit home with 134 beds, and the numbers behind its record are worth sitting with. Nurse staffing sits at 3.03 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays, which matters if your family visits on a Saturday or Sunday. Its inspection history shows 67 deficiencies, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and five related to abuse, with 22 fines totaling $190,505. Staff turnover runs 48.5%, above the national figure, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program. All three of its CMS star ratings sit at one out of five.
Autumn Care of Waynesville runs on thinner staffing than most homes: 3.43 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends falling about 11% below its own weekday level. That gap matters, because turnover sits at 69.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses on those shifts are frequently new to the building. The inspection record is heavier still: 25 deficiencies, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and five abuse-related, with a $107,387 fine and a May 2025 inspection. This is a for-profit limited liability company, and the pattern across staffing and enforcement is consistent.
Copperfield Health & Rehabilitation runs 120 beds in Concord under corporate ownership, and the numbers there are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.18 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below what the home manages on weekdays, meaning the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 64.1% compounds that: most of the people caring for your relative this year likely won't be there next year. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, seven at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with $158,405 in fines across three penalties and a survey as recent as February 2026.
Glenbridge runs on thinner nurse staffing than most homes, 3.53 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and it gets thinner on weekends, when coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 60.6%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents are often new to the building. The inspection record shows 41 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with three fines totaling $32,349. The most recent inspection was in March 2026. For-profit, limited liability ownership. If you're considering this one, ask specifically about weekend nurse coverage and how they've addressed the abuse-related finding.
Smithfield Manor runs 160 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through slowly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 12% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage gaps aren't random, they follow a pattern. Staff turnover of 64.3% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because caregivers who leave take familiarity with your family member with them.
Then there's the inspection history: 21 deficiencies on the current record, four at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse. Three fines add up to $263,607. That combination, thin weekend coverage, heavy turnover, and serious cited deficiencies, is what a family should weigh before deciding.
The Carrolton Of Dunn runs on 2.88 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop another 11% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in a 61% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses around your family member change constantly. The inspection record is worse: 37 deficiencies, four serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, plus $54,999 in fines across three penalties. Ownership is a for-profit LLC, and the most recent inspection was November 2025. With a 1/5 staffing rating and 1/5 health inspection rating, the numbers here point to a home struggling on the basics.
Oak Hills Living Center runs 160 beds in Jones under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident per day, about 5% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 39% below what the home provides on weekdays, so the hours your family member gets depend heavily on which day it is. Staff turnover is 82.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people providing care are new to the building.
The current inspection record shows 37 deficiencies, five of them at the level where harm or jeopardy occurred, twelve tied to abuse. CMS has fined the home three times for a combined $137,412 and placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which CMS reserves for homes with a persistent record of poor care.
