Oakland Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 98 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family tends to visit or call on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record shows 27 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated January 15, 2026. CMS gives it 4 stars for health inspections, 5 for quality measures, and 3 for staffing.

Friendship Manor runs about 4.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 33.3% sits well below the national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Weekends run about 16% leaner than weekdays, which is common but worth asking about. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 29 deficiencies and four fines totaling $297,367, though none of those deficiencies rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, and one was abuse-related. Inspectors were last on site in July 2025.

Royal Care of Avon Park runs a for-profit operation with 90 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are better than they look at first glance, 4.15 nurse hours per resident day sits about 7% above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 16% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover lands at 45.4%, basically in line with the national figure. The real concern is the inspection record: 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related citation, plus two fines totaling $17,342. That history is what drags the health inspection rating down to 1 out of 5, even as the quality measure score sits at the top of the scale.

Life Care Center of Orlando runs 4.37 nurse hours per resident day, about 13 percent above the national average. That's a real cushion, though weekend coverage dips roughly 12 percent below what the building does on weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits mostly Saturdays and Sundays. The record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating. State inspectors were last in on December 18, 2025, so the findings are recent. Corporate for-profit ownership and a 5-out-of-5 quality measure score round things out. Strong staffing and clean inspections carry more weight here than the raw deficiency count suggests.

Desoto Health and Rehab runs 78 beds in Arcadia under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is genuinely better than average, 4.36 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86. Turnover sits at 39.1%, below the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your family sees the same faces. Two things pull the other direction. Weekend staffing drops about 16% below the home's own weekday level, so care may thin out exactly when families visit. And the inspection record is weak: a 2/5 health inspection rating, 10 deficiencies with one at harm level, and a $13,520 fine. The quality measure score of 4/5 reflects clinical outcomes, not the survey history.

Life Care Center of Idaho Falls runs 109 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of its story: 4.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, earning 4 out of 5 stars from CMS. That cushion shrinks on weekends, though, when hours drop about 18% below the facility's own weekday level, and turnover sits at 46.2%, essentially matching the national rate, so continuity isn't a selling point here. The real caution is the inspection record: a 2/5 health inspection rating, 33 deficiencies with one at the harm level, and a $13,247 fine. Quality measures score 5/5, and the last inspection was recent, in March 2026.

Pearl Of Crystal Lake runs a tight ship on nurse retention: 35.1% turnover beats the national 45.8% by a wide margin, and inspections in March 2025 turned up zero deficiencies at the harm level. The tradeoff shows up in raw hours. At 3.79 nurse staffing hours per resident day, it sits slightly under the national 3.86, and weekends run about 18% thinner than weekdays, a drop families feel when aides are stretched. Thirty-two deficiencies on record, one tied to abuse, and corporate for-profit ownership round out the picture. Strong quality marks and few serious problems, but ask about weekend coverage before you commit.

Bethlehem Woods runs a 90-bed for-profit operation in Fort Wayne, and the numbers show a home that's mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 3.48 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends dip about 18% below its own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's actually on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover lands at 41.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn than many peers. Inspections are current as of March 2026 with four deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, and the quality measure rating is strong even though staffing scores lower.

Regency Park's inspection record is the strongest card here, a four-star health inspection and a five-star quality measure score, both built on a survey done in November 2025 with nine total deficiencies and just one at the harm level. No abuse findings on the record. Where it slips is staffing: 3.48 nurse hours per resident day, about 10% under the national average, with weekends running roughly 13% thinner than weekdays. Forty-six beds under corporate ownership means the numbers aren't hiding much. Ask how the weekend shift is covered, especially on evenings, and who's on call when it isn't.

Elkader Care Center runs 40 beds as a for-profit LLC, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating with a recent survey from December 2025. But look at the direct-care picture: 3.73 nurse hours per resident per day sits slightly under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 17% below the home's own weekday staffing. Annual turnover of 54.5% tops the national 45.8%, which means the people helping your relative bathe and eat are changing often. Four deficiencies are on record, one involving harm or jeopardy and one tied to abuse. Good inspections, thinner hands-on coverage, worth asking about.

Osceola Senior Living runs 46 certified beds in Sibley under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86. That margin is modest, though, and weekends dip roughly 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the daily experience can shift depending on when you visit. The current record shows 6 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none related to abuse. With a 4/5 health inspection rating and a recent inspection dated April 2026, the compliance picture looks stable rather than spotless.

Diversicare Of Council Grove runs 60 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.26 hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends get thinner still, dropping about 17 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so families should ask how that gap gets filled. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse; the last inspection was August 2024, and CMS scored health inspections 2 out of 5. Turnover lands at 41.7 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure. Quality measures scored 4 out of 5, which is where the stronger numbers live.

Signature Healthcare at Colonial Rehab & Wellness runs on a corporate for-profit model with 65 certified beds, and the staffing picture is a mixed one. Nurse hours come to 3.81 per resident day, right around the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop roughly 18% below weekday coverage, that's when families tend to visit and notice. Turnover sits at 25%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for your relative are more likely to stick around. The trouble is the inspection record. Six deficiencies, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one tied to abuse, and a $67,987 fine. A recent August 2025 inspection means the state has been watching closely. Strong quality scores don't erase that history.

The Orchards at Southgate runs 100 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.64 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday numbers, so coverage thins exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is where the real concern lives: 21 deficiencies, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. Four fines total $47,691. A 5/5 quality measure rating and a recent September 2025 inspection look better on paper, but quality measures reflect resident health trends, not whether the building is safely run day to day. The staffing and deficiency picture tells you more.

Medilodge Of Kalamazoo runs 39 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.64 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops roughly 15% below its own weekday level, which matters if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 39%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so workers tend to stick around longer than at the typical home. Inspections in July 2025 turned up 20 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. Quality and staffing each earned 4 of 5 stars from CMS; health inspection earned 3.

Medilodge of Portage runs 117 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.63 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 21% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 53 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $35,317. Annual turnover of 44.8% is essentially the national rate, so that's not the outlier here. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so the picture is current.

Trend Health And Rehab Of Brookhaven runs 60 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture: 4.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, with a 5-out-of-5 staffing rating. Turnover sits at 22.8%, about half the national rate, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. Two things pull against that. Weekend staffing drops about 18% below the home's own weekday level, so care thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. And the quality measure rating is 2 out of 5, meaning clinical outcomes don't track with the staffing strength. Fourteen deficiencies are on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in February 2026.

The Madison Health And Rehab runs 60 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits about 20 percent above the national average, a real edge, though weekends drop roughly 23 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so care thins out when families visit. Turnover is the bigger worry: 58.9 percent annually against a national 45.8 percent means aides and nurses cycle through often, and that churn can undercut even good staffing numbers. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, including one tied to abuse, with no harm-level findings and a survey as recent as January 2025.

Heritage House runs 60 beds in Vicksburg under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing picture is genuinely strong: 3.86 nurse hours per resident day sits right at the national average, and the 5/5 staffing star reflects that consistency. Turnover is the real bright spot, 29.6% against a national average of 45.8% means aides and nurses are staying put, which matters for residents who need familiar faces. The caveats are on the inspection side: 17 deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was recent. Weekend staffing drops about 18% below weekday levels, so ask how weekends are covered.

Big Elm runs leaner on risk than most: one harm-level deficiency and one abuse citation on the current record, but the state was last in the building in August 2025, so the picture is recent. Staffing is the strong point, 5.10 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, though weekends dip about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, and turnover sits at 42%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure. Sixteen total deficiencies is not nothing. For a 50-bed for-profit owned by an individual, four stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing is a steadier record than that ownership category often produces.
