Swiss Villa is county-owned, which is unusual these days and tends to mean steadier oversight than a lot of for-profit chains. The tradeoff shows up in the staffing numbers: 3.14 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 17 percent thinner than weekdays. Seventeen deficiencies sit on the current record, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, and the last inspection was in August 2025. Turnover at 42.6 percent is actually slightly better than the national 45.8 percent. So you're looking at a home that inspects well and keeps its staff reasonably well, but runs lean on the floor, worth asking how weekend coverage actually feels.

Clearvista Lake Health Campus runs 70 beds as a county-owned home, and its clinical quality scores are genuinely strong, a perfect 5 out of 5 on CMS quality measures. Staffing is where it slips. At 3.75 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 19% below its own weekday coverage, a gap families should ask about directly. Annual turnover of 50% runs above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your parent sees the same aides twice. The inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse.

Life Care Center of The Willows is county-owned, with 92 certified beds in Valparaiso. The staffing numbers run thinner than most: 3.45 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 10% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 49.3%, a few points above the national figure, so the people caring for residents change often. The health inspection record is where the real weight lands, a 1-out-of-5 star rating, 37 deficiencies on the current record, one tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was January 27, 2026. Quality measures score well at 4 stars, which tells you the charted clinical care looks better than the building's oversight history.

Rosebud Village is county-owned and holds 110 beds, which tends to mean steadier oversight than a lot of for-profit neighbors, and the turnover number backs that up, at 31.8% against a national average of 45.8%. That matters, because CNAs who stay put know the residents. The trade-off shows in the daily hours: 3.32 per resident, roughly 14% under the national figure, with weekends running about 15% thinner than weekdays. The inspection record carries 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, though the most recent survey was July 2025, so the picture is reasonably current.

Heritage House is county-owned, which is unusual these days, and its inspection record is genuinely solid, four stars, nine deficiencies on the books, none of them causing harm or involving abuse, with a survey done in January 2026. The catch is staffing, where it earns two stars: 3.44 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11 percent under the national figure, and weekends run about 7 percent thinner than its own weekdays. Turnover sits at 38.1 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national rate. So you have a home that keeps residents safe and scores well on quality measures, but runs leaner than average on the floor, worth asking how that feels on a Sunday.

Grace Village is county-owned, and that shows in the staffing: 4.79 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 14% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family tends to visit Saturdays or Sundays. The health inspection record is the strongest part of the picture, eight deficiencies, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and a survey as recent as March 2025. The softer spots are staff turnover at 61% against a national 45.8%, and a quality measure rating of 2 out of 5, which reflects how residents are actually faring day to day rather than how the building looks on paper.

Copper Trace is county-owned, which usually buys some stability, but the numbers here are mixed. Nurses provide 3.56 hours per resident per day, about 8% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below the home's own weekday staffing, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 68.1% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. Eighteen deficiencies sit on the current record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse. Quality measures score well; the inspection and staffing picture is where the doubt lives.

Grand Valley Health & Rehab runs on county money, and the numbers show a place that's decently staffed but not perfectly even. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.48 hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, and turnover at 38.2% beats the 45.8% national figure, meaning aides and nurses tend to stick around longer than at most homes. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops roughly 18% below its own weekday level, so care can feel thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. Inspections look strong: a 5/5 health inspection rating, just five deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last visit in June 2025. Quality measures are the weak spot at 2/5, so ask what those specifically cover.

Aspen Trace is county-owned, and the inspection record is genuinely strong, five stars on health inspections, five on quality measures, with just three deficiencies on file and none involving harm or abuse. A recent inspection in May 2026 means the picture is current. Where it slips is staffing: 3.67 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 15% thinner than weekdays. Combine that with 60.5% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, and you get a home where care quality measures well but the people delivering it are stretched and constantly changing. Ask how they cover weekends and what they're doing to keep nurses.

Rosewalk Village At Lafayette runs on county government ownership, and its staffing is the clearest concern: 3.16 nurse hours per resident per day sits about 18% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends get thinner still, dropping roughly 17% below the home's own weekday coverage, so a Saturday shift isn't the same as a Tuesday one. Turnover lands at 42.6%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure but still meaning nearly half the nursing staff cycling through in a year. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in April 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing is where the gaps live.

Clark Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Center is county-owned, which is unusual in this business, and its inspection record is solid, a four-star health inspection rating with the most recent visit in May 2025. The catch is staffing. At 3.51 nurse hours per resident per day, it runs about 9% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 17% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Nineteen deficiencies sit on the current record, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse. Staff turnover, at 45.3%, is essentially the national rate.

Willows Of Shelbyville runs 121 certified beds under city or county ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.85 hours per resident day, essentially even with the national average of 3.86. That average hides a gap: weekends run about 8% below the home's own weekday level, and CMS gives staffing just 1 out of 5 stars. Annual turnover is 46.8%, a touch above the national 45.8%. The health inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse. The last inspection was in December 2025. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, but that strong showing sits alongside a much weaker inspection picture.

Pilgrim Manor is county-owned, which usually buys a little patience from families, and the staffing numbers here are the reason it needs some. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 11% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly another 10% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 39.1% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which tells you the people who stay tend to stay. What offsets that is the inspection record: 31 deficiencies, including five tied to abuse and two at the harm level, plus a $45,580 fine. The last survey was February 2026, so the record is current, not stale.

Riverview Village is county-owned, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the story: a recent June 2025 survey with ten deficiencies total, just one at the harm level, and none tied to abuse. Quality measures also hold up. Where it slips is staffing, 3.28 nurse hours per resident day sits about 15% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 14% thinner than weekdays, so coverage gaps tend to land when families visit. Turnover at 36.2% is better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The tradeoff is real: solid oversight, thinner daily coverage.

Westminster Village Kentuckiana runs on county government ownership and 94 certified beds, with nurse staffing at 4.12 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average. That headline number softens on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 53% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the most recent survey dates to January 2026. CMS rates health inspections and quality measures both 2 out of 5, staffing 3 out of 5. Decent weekday hours, a thinner weekend, and steady turnover are what's actually driving the grade here.

Twin City Health Care in Gas City is county-owned, which is unusual these days, and it runs 75 beds. The staffing numbers are where the concern sits: 3.57 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average, with weekends dipping roughly 8% below its own weekday levels. That thin coverage is why its staffing rating lands low even as inspections and quality measures both come in strong, and staff turnover of 40.5% is actually better than the national 45.8%. Ten deficiencies sit on the current record, three tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is fairly current.

Lodge of the Wabash runs on 3.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 21% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 42.9%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure, yet inspectors still logged 23 deficiencies on the current record, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. The city- or county-run home holds a 4/5 staffing star from CMS but just 2/5 on health inspections and 2/5 on quality measures, and its most recent inspection was March 4, 2026. What that mix really tells you: decent retention, thin daily coverage, and a survey history that keeps drawing attention.

Charlestown Place At New Albany runs a hospital-district operation with 158 beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.01 hours per resident day, roughly 4% above the national average. That edge narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 10% below its own weekday level, and it's undercut by turnover of 64.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning a large share of caregivers are still new to the building. The inspection record is the harder problem: 52 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $31,784 and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so that picture is current, not stale. Quality measures score well; the day-to-day care environment is where the risk concentrates.

Community Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is county-owned and carries 115 certified beds on Indianapolis's east side. The raw staffing number looks decent, 4.33 nurse hours per resident day, about 12% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 20% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 67.7% against a national 45.8%. Inspectors have logged 37 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse; the health inspection rating is 1 out of 5, while resident outcome measures score 5 out of 5. One fine totaling $12,735 is on record, and the most recent inspection closed in April 2026. The county's answer to understaffing is overtime and turnover, not more hires.

Altenheim Health & Living Community is county-owned and holds 87 certified beds, and its recent inspection history is genuinely solid, a 4 out of 5 on health inspections, a perfect 5 on quality measures, and 11 deficiencies on record with none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related. The problem sits in the staffing column. At 3.49 nurse hours per resident day, this home runs about 10% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 20% below its own weekday levels, meaning care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 57.3% against a 45.8% national average suggests a workforce that isn't sticking around. A last inspection in June 2025 means the record is current.
