Candler Skilled Nursing Unit runs 22 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 7.95 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. That holds up on weekends too, dipping only about 2% below weekday levels when many homes thin out. Turnover sits at 30.4%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. The tradeoff is a middle-of-the-road 3/5 on quality measures, though the 4/5 inspection rating and seven deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level look clean. A small unit with this much nurse time per resident is unusual, and the recent March 2026 inspection means the record is current.

Staffing is the real story at Terraces at Peachtree Hills Place: 7.90 nurse hours per resident day is more than double the national average of 3.86, and that coverage holds steady on weekends rather than thinning out the way it often does elsewhere. Turnover sits at 24.3% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that care tend to stick around. The current record shows seven deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in May 2026. For a 25-bed for-profit LLC, the weak spot is quality measures at 3 out of 5 stars, not the hands-on care.

Southwell Health and Rehabilitation runs on 4.49 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 34.8% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, people tend to stay here. Weekend staffing drops roughly 15% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Sundays. The 17 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Inspectors were last on site in January 2026, and the nonprofit ownership means no shareholder pressure on the budget.

Pebblebrook Health Center runs 60 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 5.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 40% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 5% below weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 34.1% against a national 45.8%, both signs of a steadier floor than most. The tradeoffs are modest: a 3/5 on health inspections, 10 deficiencies on record with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $19,408. The last inspection was May 2025, so the picture is current.

Lenbrook runs 6.01 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, that's roughly half again as much hands-on time as the typical home. Weekend staffing dips about 10% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Four deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in late February 2026. Staff turnover sits at 41.6%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, though still meaningfully high. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders.

Magnolia Place runs on a nonprofit model with 34 certified beds in Rome, and the staffing numbers stand out, 6.41 nurse hours per resident day, roughly two-thirds above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 3% below its own weekday level, so care doesn't thin out much when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 48.3%, a touch above the 45.8% national figure, which is worth asking about directly. Five deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection came in January 2026.

Georgia Regional Atlanta Ltc runs on state government ownership in Decatur, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.15 hours per resident day, roughly a third above the national average of 3.86. That said, weekends drop about 15% below its own weekday coverage, so care can thin out when families visit. The current record shows 10 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse. Inspectors were last on site September 18, 2025. Its quality measure rating is perfect at 5/5 while health inspections land at 2/5, a split worth asking about directly.

Heart Of Georgia Nursing Home runs on 4.00 nurse hours per resident per day, a bit above the national average, and its staff turnover of 29.3% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, that kind of retention is not common in for-profit nursing homes and usually shows up in how consistently residents are cared for. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops roughly 19% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Inspections in January 2026 turned up 11 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. Eastman's only Medicare-certified home, corporate-owned, with a 3/5 inspection score.

Calhoun Nursing Home runs on a hospital district's budget out in Edison, and the numbers show a place that mostly does right by its residents. Nurses give 4.49 hours of care per resident per day, roughly 16% more than the national average, though weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday pace, worth asking about if you're planning visits. Staff turnover sits at 39%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stick around. The trade-offs: eight deficiencies on record, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was May 2025. No abuse findings, and quality measures score at the top of the scale.

Colquitt Regional Senior Care runs on a hospital district's payroll, and the numbers show a stable crew: 28.8% turnover against a national average of 45.8%, with 4.05 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% above what the typical home provides. Weekend coverage dips about 16% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Thirteen deficiencies sit on the current record, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related, worth a direct question. The last inspection was January 8, 2026. Staffing holds up well here; the quality measure side is more middling.

Nurse staffing here runs 4.71 hours per resident day, about 22 percent above the national average, and weekends dip roughly 11 percent below its own weekday levels, so cover is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 10 deficiencies, two of which involved harm or jeopardy and one tied to abuse, with the most recent state visit in December 2024. Staff turnover sits at 54 percent, above the 45.8 percent national figure, meaning roughly half the caregiver workforce turns over in a year. As a nonprofit, there's no owner profit to feed, but that doesn't erase the harm-level findings or the weekend gap.

A.G. Rhodes Home Wesley Woods runs about 4.73 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 36.1% sits below the national 45.8%, both signs of a stable floor. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops about 11% below its own weekday level. On inspections, the record shows 13 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, plus a single fine of $8,018; the last survey was in September 2025, so the picture is current. As a nonprofit, its 5/5 quality measure rating stands out against a middling 3/5 on health inspections.

New Horizons Limestone runs on a nonprofit model in Gainesville, and the numbers show steady hands. Nurse staffing sits at 4.07 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 12% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits mostly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 22.2%, less than half the national average of 45.8%, which means aides and nurses tend to stick around and know the residents. The inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey dated March 2026. Three separate CMS ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, all land at four out of five stars.

Spring Harbor At Green Island runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 40-bed nonprofit home, 5.95 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national figure, and weekends barely dip below weekdays. That consistency matters more than the raw number. The tradeoff shows up in turnover: 61% of staff leave each year, well above the 45.8% national rate, so the people delivering that care keep changing. Ten deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last inspection was in January 2026. Quality and staffing both rate 4 out of 5 stars; inspections come in at 3.

Sgmc Health Villa runs on a hospital district's license in Lakeland, and its workforce is unusually steady, 17.6% turnover against a national average near 46% means aides and nurses largely stay put, which matters more for daily care than almost anything else on paper. Staffing sits at 3.84 hours per resident day, essentially level with the national 3.86, though weekends run about 16% thinner than weekdays, so ask how coverage holds up on a Sunday. The current record shows 26 deficiencies, including three at the harm level and two tied to abuse, and the last full inspection was June 2025, recent enough to trust, but those harm findings are the part worth asking about directly.

Hart Care Center runs 117 certified beds in Hartwell as a for-profit corporation, and its inspection record is the standout: a single deficiency on file, none involving harm or abuse, from a visit in March 2025. Staffing tells a more mixed story. At 3.77 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, the pattern families tend to notice on Saturday afternoons. Turnover, though, is genuinely low at 33.3% against a national 45.8%, which matters for whether your mother sees the same aides month to month. Quality measures score well; staffing is the soft spot.

Pinewood runs lean on nurses, 2.88 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 14% below its own weekday numbers. That thin coverage is the main reason its staffing rating lands at the bottom. The counterweight is stability: turnover sits at 22.9%, roughly half the national rate, so the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. Inspections came back at 3 stars with 19 deficiencies on record, none at harm level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Quality measures score 5 stars, but those are largely self-reported. Ask how many CNAs are actually on the floor on a Saturday night.

Washington County runs this 60-bed home in Sandersville itself, and the staffing reflects that. Nurses provide 4.15 hours per resident per day, roughly 7% above the national average of 3.86, and the staff tends to stay: turnover is 35.6% against a national 45.8%. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 12% below the home's own weekday level, so a Saturday shift runs leaner than a Tuesday one. Inspectors were last in on February 26, 2026, and found nine deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one was abuse-related. The county's own numbers put this home modestly ahead of average, with the weekend gap the thing worth asking about.

Salude sits in Suwanee with 64 certified beds and a for-profit LLC structure behind it. Nurse staffing runs 4.68 hours per resident day, roughly 21% above the national average, though weekends dip about 8% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Staff turnover lands at 50.6%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents change fairly often. The inspection record is clean: one deficiency total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in September 2025. That combination, strong weekday coverage, a spotless survey history, but churn among the workforce, is what a B grade reflects.

A.G. Rhodes Home runs 4.53 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The current record shows 15 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one abuse-related citation is worth asking about directly. Inspections are recent, December 2025, and the 3/5 health inspection rating alongside 4/5 quality measures suggests care outcomes are tracking better than the paperwork side. Nonprofit ownership under a corporation is typical for Georgia's older homes. Ask about weekend coverage and that abuse citation before touring.
