Woodland Manor runs on thinner staffing than most homes nationally, and the gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday level. That matters more than the raw hours suggest, because nearly 70% of the nursing staff turned over in a year, well above the national rate, so the people providing care keep changing. The inspection record backs up the concern: 50 deficiencies, five serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and four tied to abuse, with $114,339 in fines. A recent November 2025 inspection gives some current picture, but three one-star ratings across health, quality, and staffing describe a home struggling on every measure at once.
Big Bend Woods runs on 2.84 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 67% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 64 deficiencies, including four at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, plus an $85,176 fine and a 1-out-of-5 CMS rating on both staffing and quality measures. Ownership is for-profit and individual. The most recent inspection was September 2025.
Aria Of Brookfield runs 170 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 3.40 hours per resident day, about 12% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 8% leaner than weekdays. Staff turnover is 71%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents change often. The current inspection record shows 109 deficiencies, including 10 at the harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $396,970. All three CMS star ratings, health inspection, quality measures, and staffing, sit at 1 out of 5. The most recent inspection was August 27, 2025.
Nortonville Health Care Center is a 45-bed for-profit home in Jefferson County, and the numbers behind its record are hard to get past. Nurse staffing sits at 3.04 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, weekends run about 18% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover is 80.7%, nearly double the national figure, so the people caring for residents change constantly. The inspection history includes 74 deficiencies, 12 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 abuse-related, with four fines totaling $252,207, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program. That program exists for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care, and the most recent inspection in January 2026 means the record is current, not old.
The numbers at Cypress At Lake Providence are hard to explain away. Nurse staffing sits at 2.59 hours per resident per day, roughly a third below the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, about 19% less coverage than during the week. That matters in a building where more than two-thirds of the nursing staff turned over in the past year, well above the national rate. The inspection record shows 69 deficiencies, including 11 tied to abuse and 3 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, with $74,456 in fines. A corporation owns it and takes profit out. If you're weighing this one for someone you love, ask what the daily aide coverage actually looks like.
North Village Park runs on 1.60 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 59% below the national average, and weekends drop about 17% below its own weekday numbers. Staff turnover sits near 70%, well above the 45.8% national figure. On its current record: 129 deficiencies, 25 involving harm or jeopardy, 26 abuse-related, and 11 fines totaling $521,334. This is a for-profit LLC of 183 certified beds with a one-star health inspection rating, a one-star staffing rating, and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. Its most recent inspection was December 12, 2025.
Meramec Nursing runs on 2.79 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% below the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below what the home already provides on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 76.9% against a national figure of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for your family member this year likely won't be there next year. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, two serious enough to put residents in harm's way and one tied to abuse, plus $46,449 in fines. A 1-out-of-5 quality measure score alongside a 1-out-of-5 staffing score tells you the federal data itself flags concerns here across multiple dimensions, not just one.
If you're looking at Estates of Perryville, the numbers behind its federal record are worth your time. The home has 156 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner, and its nurse staffing comes in at 2.10 hours per resident day, roughly 46% below the national average, with weekend coverage dropping about 18% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 61.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure. On the current record: 45 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level, six abuse-related, and three fines totaling $303,763. All three CMS star ratings land at 1 out of 5, and the last inspection was March 11, 2026.
Bentwood runs 116 certified beds in Florissant under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are about people. Nurse staffing sits at 3.28 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 17 percent thinner than weekdays, which matters because that's when families often visit and when problems can go unnoticed. The bigger signal is turnover: 77.3 percent of staff leaving in a year, well above the 45.8 percent national figure. On the record are 60 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus three tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $107,465. The most recent inspection was February 24, 2026.
Arbor Hills runs 150 beds in Ferguson under for-profit LLC ownership that changed hands less than a year ago. Nurse staffing sits at 3.37 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 18% below the home's own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 79.8% is far above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses your relative sees are likely to keep changing. The current record carries 65 deficiencies, including 7 at harm or jeopardy level and 10 abuse-related, plus $282,840 in fines across two penalties. A February 2026 inspection is recent, but the pattern behind it isn't.
Prairie Village runs 126 beds under corporate ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are about people, not beds. Nurse staffing sits at 3.84 hours per resident day, just under the national average, but weekends drop roughly 24% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the coverage your family member gets depends heavily on which day they need it. Annual turnover of 65.2% means most of the aide staff you'd meet this year won't be there next year, against a national rate near 46%. The inspection history carries 22 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $131,684. The last full inspection was April 2024.
Lincoln Village Healthcare runs 126 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.47 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover hits 77.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. The current record carries 82 deficiencies, including 9 at the harm or jeopardy level and 14 tied to abuse, with six fines totaling $348,066. The last inspection was January 30, 2025.
Friendship Rehab and Health is one of the largest nursing homes in Pennsylvania, with 589 certified beds, and it's owned by a for-profit limited liability company. The staffing numbers are the first thing you'd notice: 2.40 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 38% under the national average, with weekends running about 18% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 66.2% a year against a national average of 45.8%. The inspection record is heavy, 173 deficiencies, 10 of them at harm or jeopardy level, 13 abuse-related, and five fines totaling $234,389. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent record of serious problems.
Timbercreek runs on thinner staffing than most homes its size, 3.42 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below what it manages Monday through Friday. That matters over 202 beds, where gaps get covered by whoever's left. Annual turnover sits at 65.9% while the national figure is 45.8%, so the aides and nurses cycling through are often new to the building and to each other. On inspections, the record shows 74 deficiencies, 11 of them at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with seven fines totaling $260,624. The last inspection was August 2024. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care.
Quail Run in Trumann runs 92 beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the real story here: 4.32 nurse hours per resident day, about 12 percent above the national average of 3.86. But that weekday strength softens on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 18 percent below its own weekday level. The inspection record is clean, zero deficiencies of any kind, including nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and no abuse-related findings, and the most recent survey came in May 2025, so it's current. For a for-profit home, that combination of above-average staffing and an unblemished survey record is not common. Worth asking about weekend coverage when you visit.
Axiom Gardens Of Mount Vernon carries 18 deficiencies on its current record, and three of those are abuse-related, a category families should ask about directly. Two more were serious enough to be cited at the harm or jeopardy level, meaning an inspector determined residents were actually endangered, not just at risk. The 106-bed home is run by a for-profit corporation, inspected last on March 17, 2025, and it's been fined three times for a combined $37,500. That pattern of repeat fines alongside abuse citations suggests problems that inspections have flagged before and that the home hasn't fully corrected. When you tour, ask what changed after those abuse findings and who supervises residents with behavioral needs.
Access Mental Health in Peabody holds 45 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its last inspection was June 3, 2026. Staff turnover sits at 25.9% against a national average of 45.8%, so on retention this home beats most of its peers. The rest of the record runs the other way: 45 deficiencies, 10 of them at the harm or jeopardy level, 5 tied to abuse, and three CMS fines totaling $122,551. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of serious problems. Low turnover alone doesn't offset that kind of inspection history.
Future Care Annapolis runs 4.97 total nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 29 percent above the national average of 3.86, and it carries no deficiencies at all on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none tied to abuse. Its most recent inspection was November 13, 2025, so the picture is fresh rather than stale. The one number that gives pause is weekend staffing, which runs about 11 percent below the home's own weekday level. That's a common pattern in nursing homes, but it matters for a family whose visits or care concerns land on Saturdays and Sundays. The corporate, for-profit ownership is worth knowing, though nothing in the record shows it dragging down care here.
Raintree Village runs a small house, 40 beds, and staffs it well above the national average at 4.92 nurse hours per resident day. That cushion matters most on weekends, and here it thins by about 14% against the home's own weekday coverage, which is worth asking about directly since that's when families tend to visit and notice. The inspection record is thin: one deficiency on file, nothing at the harm or jeopardy level, no abuse citations, and the most recent state visit came in May 2025. Corporate ownership doesn't tell you much on its own, but combined with that staffing and citation picture, the numbers suggest a home that has been running clean.
Ignite Medical Resort St Peters runs 91 certified beds as a for-profit limited liability company, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.12 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real edge on paper, but weekends dip about 19% below the home's own weekday level, so the care you'd see on a Saturday isn't the care reflected in the headline number. The inspection record is the heavier issue: 23 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy. None were abuse-related. The last inspection was October 2025, so the findings are recent rather than stale.
