Center for Rehabilitation at Hampton Woods runs 26 certified beds in Poland, Ohio, under individual for-profit ownership. The staffing numbers are the real story here: 5.42 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 40% above the national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping only about 7% below weekday levels, a smaller drop than many homes show. Turnover sits at 45.7%, essentially identical to the national figure. The health inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated December 31, 2025. Quality measures rate well and staffing rates at the top of CMS's scale. A small building with above-average direct care and no serious safety findings on its record.

Mount Saint Joseph Rehab Center runs on 5.05 nurse hours per resident day, about 31% above the national average of 3.86, and that staffing shows up in a 4/5 staffing star rating. Weekends dip roughly 9% below its own weekday coverage, so care can look a little different on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 52.5%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because new faces mean less continuity for a 90-bed home. The inspection record includes 13 deficiencies, one at the harm level and one abuse-related, though the last survey was recent, April 2025, and the health inspection rating is 4/5.

Main Street Terrace runs 50 beds in Lancaster, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.71 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. Turnover is the bright spot at 33.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning fewer caregivers cycling out the door than most homes. The current inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse. The last inspection was December 31, 2025.

Mt Healthy Christian Home runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 75-bed nonprofit, just under 5 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 29% above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekdays. That's the kind of consistency that matters when a resident needs help on a Sunday night. Inspections back it up: a perfect health inspection record and no abuse deficiencies, with the most recent visit in October 2024. Two things keep this from being a clean sweep. Staff turnover sits at 51.4%, above the 45.8% national average, which can wear on continuity of care. And of seven deficiencies on record, one rose to the harm level. Worth asking the administrator how they're addressing both.

Western Reserve Masonic Comm runs 4.48 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 50.7%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, and two fines totaling $8,090. The last inspection was May 30, 2025, and CMS gives it five stars on health inspections and quality measures, four on staffing. Staffing depth and inspection results are strong here; the turnover rate and those three abuse-related tags are the things worth asking about directly.

Algart Health Care sits on Cleveland's west side with 78 certified beds and a for-profit corporate owner. The numbers that matter most here are clean: five deficiencies on the current record, none of them causing harm or jeopardy, and none related to abuse. That's a record inspectors last reviewed in September 2025, and the 5-star health inspection rating reflects it. Staffing is where the picture gets more mixed. At 3.55 nurse hours per resident day, Algart runs about 8 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11 percent below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family member needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover, at 41.3 percent, is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure.

Shepherd of the Valley Poland runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership and 32 certified beds, and the numbers mostly back it up. Nurse staffing sits at 4.53 hours per resident day, roughly 17% above the national average, and turnover is 25.8% against a national figure near 46%, that kind of retention matters more than almost anything else for consistent care. The tradeoff is weekends, when coverage drops about 22% below the home's own weekday level, and the inspection record shows 7 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, with no abuse citations. The last inspection was recent, in September 2025. Nothing here looks like a crisis, but that one harm-level finding and the weekend dip are worth asking about directly.

Altenheim runs on 4.75 nurse hours per resident day, about 23% above the national average, and weekend staffing dips roughly 13% from its own weekday level, so coverage is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays than the weekday numbers suggest. Staff turnover sits at 40%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The health inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, one of them at the harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations, and the last inspection was July 2024. Quality measures score 5 out of 5 while inspection results sit at 3, a split worth noticing: the day-to-day care metrics look strong, but the survey history carries one serious finding.

Bethany Village runs on 4.23 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, though weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters more than the headline number if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 35.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The inspection record is thin: two deficiencies total, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, with a survey completed in January 2026. As a nonprofit with 227 beds, it carries five stars on both health inspections and quality measures.

Kensington At Anna Maria runs 4.48 nurse hours per resident day, about 16 percent above the national average, and its five-star health inspection and quality ratings suggest that staffing shows up where it counts. The caution is in staffing consistency: weekends drop roughly 11 percent below weekday levels, so coverage isn't uniform across the week. Four deficiencies appear on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in December 2025. Turnover sits at 42.9 percent, slightly better than the national 45.8 percent. Corporate for-profit ownership, 99 beds, and a solid but not flawless record.

Mill Manor runs a tight ship on inspections and quality measures, but staffing is where the numbers get interesting. At 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 13% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family member needs more hands-on help on Saturdays and Sundays. The tradeoff is stability: 17.2% turnover is far below the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. Thirteen deficiencies on record, three tied to abuse, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was January 2026.

Mennonite Memorial Home runs on slightly better staffing than most places, about 4.02 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with a four-star staffing rating to match. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays, and turnover sits at 46.8%, a touch above the national rate. Its inspection record shows 29 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though four are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in late 2024. The quality measure rating of four stars suggests the clinical numbers hold up. Church-affiliated nonprofit ownership, 60 beds.

The Village at St Edward runs on 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national figure, though weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday staffing. Staff turnover sits at 27.5%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month. Inspectors were last in on March 2, 2026, and the record shows 18 deficiencies with none at the harm level and no abuse citations, which is the distinction worth holding onto: paperwork problems, not resident safety problems.

Williams County runs this 71-bed home in Bryan, and the staffing numbers are its strongest argument: 4.10 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping roughly 9% below its own weekdays. Turnover sits at 30.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The tradeoffs show up elsewhere. Nineteen deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, but six flagged as abuse-related, a category worth asking about directly. Inspectors were last on site in February 2025, and the health inspection and quality ratings each landed mid-range.

Hennis Care Centre in Bolivar runs a tight ship on most measures. Its 3.94 nurse staffing hours per resident day edges out the national average, though weekends drop off about 8% from weekday coverage, worth asking about if you're planning visits or admissions late in the week. Staff turnover sits at 38.7%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests people stick around. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, including one at the harm level, but nothing abuse-related, and the last survey was recent. A 4/5 on health inspections and 5/5 on quality measures round out a solid picture for a for-profit corporate home.

Cherith Care Center At Willow Brook runs 34 certified beds under church-related nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.34 hours per resident day, roughly 12 percent above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 7 percent below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover is 49 percent, a bit above the 45.8 percent national figure, so continuity of caregivers is the weaker spot even though raw hours look strong. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey done May 28, 2025. Federal ratings put health inspections at 4 of 5 stars and quality measures at 5 of 5, which fits a small home that keeps residents stable but churns through some staff.

Sunnyslope runs a 50-bed for-profit home in Harrison County with a solid recent inspection history, its last full survey was in October 2024, and CMS scored that side of things 4 out of 5. Staffing is where the picture gets more mixed. At 3.61 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 7% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 10% thinner than its own weekdays. Turnover, though, is genuinely better than most: 38.1% against a national 45.8%. The record isn't clean, 32 deficiencies, one at harm level and six tied to abuse, so ask specifically how those were resolved.

Grace Brethren Village sits in Englewood with 45 certified beds and a for-profit corporate owner.

The current record shows 30 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy; none are abuse-related, and the last inspection was January 30, 2025. Quality measures score well, inspections and staffing land in the middle, which is roughly what a B reflects: decent day-to-day care with real churn in the workforce and a recent citation worth asking about directly.

Larchwood Care runs on a for-profit LLC model with 74 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.88 hours per resident day, roughly half again what the national average of 3.86 looks like, though weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday numbers. Turnover runs 42.3%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the current inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse. CMS rated its last inspection 4 out of 5 stars and its quality measures a full 5, with staffing at 3. The most recent survey was September 8, 2025, so what's on file is fresh, and the abuse citations are the piece worth asking about directly before you decide.

Slovene Home For The Aged is a 104-bed nonprofit in Cleveland, and the numbers pull in different directions. On the clinical side, residents' quality measures rate well above average, and the 25 deficiencies on record include nothing flagged at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, a record that could be considerably worse. The staffing picture is the problem: CMS gives it one star, meaning nurse coverage sits well below what most homes in Ohio report. With the last inspection in September 2024, the survey history is recent. If you're weighing this one, ask directly how many nurses are on the floor on evenings and weekends, because that's where the gap shows up.
