Comfort Care Nursing Center in Laurel runs on county money, and its 126 beds get more nursing attention than most, 4.47 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That staffing cushion has limits, though: weekends run about 24% leaner than weekdays, so care depends on which day you visit. The inspection record carries 14 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent state visit was November 2025. Health inspection and quality measure ratings both sit at 2 out of 5, while staffing earns 4. That gap tells the story, decent hands on deck, uneven execution everywhere else.

Choctaw Residential Center runs 120 beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing sits a bit under the national average, 3.67 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover at 41.4% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The tradeoff shows up in oversight: 23 deficiencies on the current record, one tied to abuse, and a single fine of $21,165, with the last inspection in March 2025. No deficiency reached harm or jeopardy level, so nothing here reads as dangerous, but the inspection and quality ratings both land at 2 out of 5, which is where the concern sits.

Bolivar Medical Center Ltc runs 35 certified beds in Cleveland under corporate for-profit ownership, and its strongest numbers show up in staffing and inspections. Nurse coverage sits at 4.43 hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 13% leaner than weekdays. Staff turnover is a real weak spot at 53.8% against a national 45.8%, which matters when residents rely on familiar faces. The health inspection record is solid, four stars, five deficiencies and none involving harm, jeopardy, or abuse, last reviewed in July 2025. Quality measures tell a different story at one star, so care outcomes don't track with the staffing picture. Worth asking about retention and what those quality numbers reflect.

Care Center Of Laurel runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average at 3.92 hours per resident day. That margin is thin, and weekends drop roughly 16% below weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits primarily on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover is 41.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in the workforce. The current record shows 19 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. Where this home separates itself is quality measures, which score 1 out of 5 stars. That gap between adequate staffing and poor clinical outcomes is the real question to press the administrator on.

The Grove runs leaner on weekends than weekdays, staffing drops about 19%, but even that lower weekend figure sits near where most homes staff every day, since overall nurse coverage of 4.75 hours per resident is roughly a quarter above the national average. Turnover of 36% is better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere, though it still means more than a third of the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, none rising to harm or jeopardy, and the last survey came in February 2026, so the picture is fairly current. The weak spot is quality measures, where the home scores near the bottom.

Nurse staffing at Bedford runs 4.61 hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent above the national average, and weekends dip about 12 percent below its own weekday level. The inspection history is where the picture darkens: three deficiencies on record, two of them at the harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, plus a single $66,700 fine. Staff turnover sits at 53.8 percent against a national average near 45.8, so a fair share of the people providing that above-average care are new or on their way out. The most recent inspection was August 14, 2025. A for-profit limited liability company operates the 60-bed home.

Arrington Living Center is city/county-owned, and its nurse staffing runs 4.61 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, which is a real strength. The catch is weekends: coverage drops about 18% below its own weekday level, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 46.8%, a hair above the national 45.8%, and the current record shows 7 deficiencies, 3 of them at harm or jeopardy level, including 1 abuse-related citation, plus two fines totaling $17,727. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so that record is fairly fresh. Strong weekday staffing, but the quality measure score and those harm-level findings are what pull the overall picture down.

Lakeland Community Care Center runs 105 certified beds in Jackson under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers carry a catch worth knowing. Total nurse coverage of 3.90 hours per resident day edges out the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop roughly 22% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the care you'd see on a Tuesday isn't the care you'd see on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 59% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves within a year. The record shows 29 deficiencies, one abuse-related and none at harm level, plus a single $8,424 fine. A January 2025 inspection is recent, and the 2/5 health inspection rating reflects those findings.

Leakesville Rehabilitation And Nursing Center runs on 4.62 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more staffing than the typical American nursing home, and its inspectors have logged 13 deficiencies with none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops about 17% below what the same building manages on weekdays, and a 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating suggests the charted outcomes don't match what the staffing numbers promise. Staff turnover of 41.9% is a little better than the national 45.8%, and a November 2025 inspection means the record is recent. Corporate-owned, 60 beds, and worth asking about weekend coverage specifically.

Dunbar Village Terrace sits right around the national average for nurse staffing, 3.89 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, so there's no real cushion there, and weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays. The bigger number to sit with is turnover: 61.7% annually, well above the 45.8% national average, which means the people caring for residents are changing over faster than at a typical home. Inspections look solid on paper, a 4 out of 5 star rating with the most recent visit in July 2025, but the record shows 10 deficiencies including one at the harm level, plus an $8,021 fine. This is a for-profit partnership, 60 beds.

Sharkey-Issaquena Nursing Home is county-owned and small, with 54 certified beds in Rolling Fork. Its ten deficiencies on the current record were all lower-level, none caused harm or jeopardy to a resident, and none were abuse-related, which matters more than the raw count. The last inspection was in October 2024, so the record is reasonably current. Federal ratings land at three stars for both health inspections and quality measures, putting this home squarely in the middle of the pack rather than at either extreme. For a family weighing a rural Mississippi county facility, the honest read is a place with no serious safety citations on file, average marks, and the accountability that comes with public ownership.

Sunshine Health Care passed its most recent inspection in July 2025 with three deficiencies on record, none of which rose to harm or jeopardy, and no abuse citations at all. That's a clean inspection history, and the five-star health inspection rating reflects it. Where the home gives some ground is quality measures, which sit at three stars, the clinical side isn't quite keeping pace with the survey side. It's a 60-bed for-profit owned by an individual, so there's no corporate chain backing it; the operator is personally on the hook for how this place runs. For a family weighing a small rural home, the inspection record is the strongest signal here.

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.

The Windsor Place runs about 3.57 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 15% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 45%, right in line with the national figure, so that's not the problem here. The inspection record is: 26 deficiencies, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, and $50,947 in fines across three penalties. The most recent inspection was October 2024. Ownership is a for-profit corporation. The staffing hours look better on paper than the inspection history does, and a 140-bed building with that many serious findings is worth asking about directly.

Greenbriar runs leaner than most: 3.78 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters because turnover sits at 49.5%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so residents see a lot of new faces. The inspection record is the harder read. Seventeen deficiencies are on file, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in June 2025. Two out of five stars for health inspections and quality measures, three for staffing, under corporate for-profit ownership. The pattern is a home that isn't dangerous on paper everywhere, but has real gaps where it counts.

Mccomb Community Care Center runs 140 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.93 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86. That margin is thin, and weekends run about 15% leaner than weekdays, so coverage depends on when you visit. Staff turnover hits 50% against a national 45.8%, meaning familiar faces cycle out faster than average. The inspection record carries 18 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with a single fine of $12,740. The last inspection was September 13, 2024. Quality measures score 1 out of 5, the weakest area here. Ask about the harm-level deficiency and weekend staffing before deciding.

River Chase Village runs a tight ship on inspections, a five-star health inspection rating and ten deficiencies on the current record, none of them causing harm or involving abuse. That's a real strength, and the April 2026 inspection is recent enough to trust. The staffing side tells a different story. At 3.26 nurse hours per resident day, this home sits about 16 percent below the national average, and weekends dip another 8 percent below its own weekday levels. Sixty beds under for-profit partnership ownership, with a one-star staffing rating, means your family member's care depends heavily on which shift they're on and what day of the week it is. Ask about weekend coverage and actual aide-to-resident ratios before deciding.

Wisteria Gardens runs a 52-bed for-profit home in Pearl with nurse staffing at 5.29 hours per resident day, roughly 37% above the national average, which is genuinely high and shows up in its five-star staffing rating. That cushion matters, but two things complicate the picture: weekend staffing drops about 16% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 61.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning a lot of those hours are being delivered by people who weren't there last year. The inspection record is solid, four stars, last survey in March 2026, 11 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. Limited liability ownership, for-profit.

Lakeview Nursing Center runs a 105-bed for-profit home in Gulfport with staffing that looks decent on paper, 4.16 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, and a 4-star staffing rating from CMS. But the weekends tell a different story, with staffing roughly 18% below its own weekday levels, and turnover sits at 56.9% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus $12,183 in fines across two penalties. Quality measures rate 2 out of 5. Staffing above average, but stability and consistency are where this home struggles.

Jones County Rest Home runs a city/county operation in Ellisville with 122 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.24 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average of 3.86. That's real coverage on paper, though weekends drop about 22% below the home's own weekday levels, so the weekday number isn't what a Saturday looks like. The inspection record is where the trouble shows. Sixteen deficiencies are on file, three of them serious enough to count as harm or jeopardy, plus two fines totaling $12,735. The most recent inspection was in March 2025, and both the health inspection and quality measure ratings came back at 2 out of 5. Nothing here is abuse-related, but three harm-level findings is a lot for a home this size.
