Hiram W Davis Medical Ctr runs 90 certified beds under state government ownership in Petersburg, and its last inspection was recent, February 12, 2026. The record shows 22 total deficiencies, but none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy to residents, which matters more than the raw count suggests. Three of those deficiencies were abuse-related, so you'll want to ask directly what happened and what changed afterward. Quality measures sit at 3 out of 5, a middle-of-the-road picture on resident care metrics, while the 4-star health inspection rating is the stronger part of the file. As a state-run home, the accountability chain runs to a public agency rather than a private operator.

Parklane West runs on thin nursing coverage, 3.74 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends drop about 17% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That gap matters when someone falls on a Sunday. Annual turnover sits at 63.4% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses caring for your family member are likely newer than the building itself. The record shows 64 deficiencies, none at harm level but one tied to abuse, and the last inspection was May 2025. The hospital district ownership is a steadying factor, and resident outcomes score well even as the staffing and inspection ratings sit at the bottom.

Stillhouse Rehabilitation runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes, 3.24 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends are leaner still, roughly 17% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and problems surface. Turnover is a genuine bright spot at 32.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the staff who are there tend to stay. But the inspection record carries 45 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus a $8,162 fine. As a hospital district facility, it answers to public ownership, which can mean more stable oversight.

Lakeside runs on leaner nurse staffing than most homes, 3.33 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping about 19% below its own weekday level. That gap is what drives the low staffing score, even though turnover at 36.8% is better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is more concerning than the stars suggest: 21 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $14,611 fine. A recent July 2025 inspection and strong quality measures don't cancel out three harm-level findings. Government hospital-district ownership hasn't kept the care problems off the record.

Signature Healthcare of Bremen is city/county-owned, which is unusual in this industry, and it holds 73 certified beds. The numbers that stand out are on the staffing side: 3.37 nurse hours per resident day sits about 13% under the national average of 3.86, weekend coverage drops another 13% below its own weekday levels, and turnover runs 50% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses your family sees are cycling out faster than at the typical home. Inspections show 43 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection was May 2026.

Lane House runs on county government ownership, and its record shows where that leaves residents. Nurse staffing sits at 2.98 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less hands-on care, and weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover of 51.1% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection history is the harder read: 27 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $175,065 fine. The quality measure score looks strong, but that reflects charted care, not the staffing and inspection problems underneath it.

Woodmont Health Campus runs on county government ownership and about 3.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86. That gap shows up most on weekends, when staffing drops another 12% below the home's own weekday level, and in a 49% annual turnover rate that edges past the national 45.8%. Twenty-eight deficiencies sit on the current record, though none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was September 2025. Quality measures score well at 4 of 5 stars, but inspections and staffing both land at 2, which is where the tension in this home's record lives.

Imperial Manor is city-and-county owned, which is unusual in a state where most homes are run by chains or nonprofits, and its staffing reflects that public backing: 4.30 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average. Weekends thin out by about 18% against its own weekday numbers, though, and turnover sits at 50%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, which matters more in a 58-bed building where you notice every new face. The current inspection record carries 23 deficiencies, none at the harm level, one tied to abuse, plus a single $7,903 fine. The last inspection was November 2025. Federal inspectors rated staffing 4 out of 5 and quality measures 3, but health inspections 2, that gap tells you the care numbers look better on paper than the surveyors found in practice.

Otterbein Monclova runs 60 beds as a federal government facility, and its staffing is the weakest part of the picture, a one-star CMS rating on that measure, with 53.1% annual turnover against a national average of 45.8%. The inspection record backs that up: 50 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to be flagged at the harm or jeopardy level, and a $47,171 fine. A two-star health inspection rating and a three-star quality measure rating round out a mixed profile, though there are no abuse-related citations on file and the most recent inspection, from March 2025, is recent. For a family weighing options, the turnover number is the one worth asking about directly.

Pleasant Ridge Manor runs a county-owned operation in Girard with 300 beds, and its nurse staffing sits about 15% above the national average, 4.45 hours per resident day against 3.86. That's a real cushion, though weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays, and staff turnover hits 71.5% against a national 45.8%, so the people delivering that care churn heavily. Inspections are recent, from June 2025, and the health inspection rating is strong, but the current record carries 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse. A single fine of $10,033 rounds it out. Good staffing numbers, but the turnover and deficiency history are what pull the overall picture down.

Bledsoe County Nursing Home is a 50-bed county-run facility in Pikeville, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.26 hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends run about 12 percent lighter than weekdays there, so the leanest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover is 46.2 percent, essentially tracking the national 45.8 percent. The current record shows four deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, which is the reassuring part. Its last inspection was August 2023. What you're weighing: adequate but not generous staffing, average retention, and a clean serious-deficiency record. Ask how they cover weekends.

North Central Health Care is county-run, and the staffing numbers are its strongest card: 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, with turnover at 36.5% against a national 45.8%. Weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even. The inspection record is where the trouble sits, 20 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $56,244 and a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating from CMS. That last inspection was August 2025, so the record is current rather than stale. Quality measures score well; the enforcement history is what weighs against it.

Avir At Pittsburg runs 102 certified beds under a hospital district, and the numbers behind its record are mostly about people, not buildings. Its staffing rating sits at 1 out of 5, and the annual turnover rate is 70.2%, a little over half again the national average of 45.8%, which means the aides and nurses at the bedside keep changing. On the inspection side, there are 31 deficiencies on the current record, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $106,438; the last inspection was February 11, 2026. The 5/5 quality measure rating stands out, but quality measures are largely self-reported, and it's hard to separate that from the staffing picture.

Bremond Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 82 certified beds under hospital district ownership in Robertson County. The staffing numbers are the part to watch: 3.56 nurse hours per resident per day sits about 8% under the national average, weekend coverage dips roughly 5% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 75% against a national 45.8%. That churn matters more than any single shift count, since new aides rarely know residents' routines. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a $24,369 fine; the last survey was August 2025. Quality measures score well, but the 2/5 inspection and staffing ratings point to a home where care depends heavily on who happens to be working that day.

Avir At Elkhart runs 98 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.38 hours per resident per day, roughly 13% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop another 13% below its own weekday level, which matters because that's often when families visit and when problems surface. Staff turnover is 54.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so caregivers are cycling through faster than average. The current record shows 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $65,397 fine. Its last inspection was April 9, 2025. Ask about weekend coverage and how they screen staff before you decide.

Trailpoint Village is county-owned, which matters less than what's inside the numbers. Nurse staffing sits at 3.57 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 17% thinner than weekdays, so coverage depends on when you visit. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $14,069. Turnover at 42.7% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, and the most recent inspection was April 2026, so the record is current. Quality measures score well; the health inspection side is where the problems sit.

Franklin Meadows is county-owned, and its inspection record reflects that, 13 deficiencies on file, but none at the harm level, and the most recent state visit was just this September. Where the home runs into trouble is staffing. At 3.17 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 18% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 18% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts land exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 49% is slightly worse than the national 45.8%, which means aides and nurses are cycling through fairly steadily. Quality measures look strong on paper; the question is whether consistent hands are there to deliver that care.

Shearer-Richardson Memorial is run by the city or county, and it shows in the staffing: 4.30 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday level, though, and turnover sits at 56.6% against a national 45.8%, that's a lot of new faces for a 73-bed home. The inspection record is the harder part. Eighteen deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $20,050. The most recent inspection was October 8, 2025, so the picture is current, not stale.

Mitchell Care Center runs on thin margins, and the numbers show it. Nurse staffing sits at 3.81 hours per resident day, just under the national average, but the real gap is weekends, coverage drops about 18% below what the home staffs on weekdays, which is when falls and infections tend to happen. Turnover runs 47.5%, higher than the national rate, and the current record carries 19 deficiencies, including five tied to abuse. None rose to the harm level, and the most recent inspection was in September 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale. City- or county-run ownership can mean steadier funding, but it doesn't change what the staffing pattern and survey history already tell you.

Deleon Nursing and Rehabilitation is run by a hospital district, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a 5/5 on health inspections with 14 deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or involving abuse, and the most recent visit was in November 2025. The catch is on the floor: total nurse staffing sits at 2.95 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less, and weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays. Quality measures also score 5/5. So the picture is a home that documents care well and inspects cleanly, but asks families to weigh that against fewer nursing hours than most places provide.
