Villa Vista Royale runs 54 beds in Steubenville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last inspection came back clean at the harm level, zero deficiencies that put residents in jeopardy, out of 20 total on the record. Three of those are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.83 hours per resident day, just under the national average, but weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover is the bright spot: 36.4% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses tend to stay longer here than average. The tradeoff is thin weekend coverage and that abuse flag on an otherwise strong inspection history.

Jamestowne Rehabilitation runs a tight ship on hours: 5.13 nurse staffing hours per resident day, about a third more than the national average, which is not nothing for a 42-bed nonprofit home in Hamilton. The catch is who's delivering those hours. Turnover sits at 67.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so a lot of that generous staffing is likely newer, less settled hands. The inspection record is a mixed bag too, 13 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm, with the last state visit in November 2024. Weekend coverage dips a bit from weekday levels. What you're looking at is a place that invests in coverage but struggles to keep people, and it shows in the survey history.

Crown Center At Laurel Lake runs 4.27 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, though weekends drop about 9% below its own weekday staffing. That helps explain the middle-of-the-road marks from CMS on staffing and health inspections, and the 17 deficiencies on the current record, one at the harm level, five tied to abuse, are worth reading closely rather than skimming. The $131,378 in fines across 23 penalties adds up. Last full inspection was August 2023, so the picture is based on data that's a little over a year old. Nonprofit ownership doesn't erase any of that.

A family member calling about Normandy Manor of Rocky River would hear this: the place has 150 certified beds and is run by a for-profit limited liability company. The staffing is thin, 3.55 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 10% lighter than weekdays. Its inspection record shows 35 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse. The health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5, and staffing at 1 out of 5, while quality measures come in at 5 out of 5. The last inspection was July 11, 2024. A strong quality score and a weak inspection and staffing pattern usually mean the daily experience depends heavily on how thinly the floor is stretched.

White Oak Manor is a 52-bed for-profit home in Warren, and the numbers pull in two directions. Its quality measure rating is 5 out of 5, which sounds great until you notice the staffing rating sits at 1 out of 5, the people measuring resident outcomes and the people actually providing daily care are telling very different stories. Staff turnover runs 48.4%, above the 45.8% national average, and there are 18 deficiencies on record, including four tied to abuse and one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy. A single $3,282 fine and a May 2025 inspection round out the picture. Ask about direct-care hours per resident and how they're addressing the abuse findings before you decide.

Woodland Country Manor runs 60 beds in Somerville under corporate ownership, and its strongest card is people: nurse staffing sits at 4.01 hours per resident day, about 4% above the national average, and only 37.9% of staff left last year against a national rate near 46%. Weekend coverage dips roughly 8% below weekday levels, so ask how that gap gets filled. Inspections look clean, five deficiencies on record, none causing harm and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in December 2025. The softer spot is clinical quality measures, which score lower than the staffing and inspection results would suggest.

Gardens of McGregor and Amasa Stone runs about 3.85 nurse hours per resident day, right at the national average of 3.86, but weekends dip roughly 8% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Turnover is the bigger issue: 70.1% of staff leave annually against a national average of 45.8%, which matters because unfamiliar caregivers struggle to learn residents' routines. On inspections, the home holds a 4/5 rating with 10 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a single fine of $15,651. Quality measures score 5/5, and the last inspection was recent, in August 2025. The staffing picture is where the tension sits.

Calcutta Health Care Center runs 97 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 3.91 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average, with a 4/5 staffing rating and turnover at 37.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure. But weekends run about 22% leaner than weekdays, which matters when a fall or infection happens on a Sunday. The inspection record is the real concern: 31 deficiencies on file, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with a 1/5 health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was June 2024. Quality measures score well at 4/5, but that gap between strong routine numbers and a troubled inspection history is worth asking about directly.

Country Court runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.53 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 14% below its own weekday staffing, which matters most when families visit and problems surface. Turnover sits at 36.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same aides are more likely to still be there next year. But the inspection record is the real story: 54 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, with one fine of $15,593 and a February 2025 inspection.

Bridgetown Nursing and Rehabilitation Centre runs 55 certified beds in Cheviot under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.60 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below the home's own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 48.9%, above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for anyone who wants consistent caregivers. Inspections are current, with the last one in September 2025, but 31 deficiencies sit on the record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. The quality measure rating is strong; the inspection and staffing ratings are not.

Joshua Tree Care Center is a small for-profit home in North Olmsted, 36 beds, individually owned, and its record is a mixed bag you'll want to weigh carefully. Inspections look solid: a recent January 2025 survey, 11 deficiencies on file, none causing harm or involving abuse, and four-out-of-five stars on both health inspections and quality measures. Staffing is the weak spot. At 3.32 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 14 percent under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 12 percent below its own weekday coverage, worth asking how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover, at 37.5 percent, is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the team that's there tends to stay.

Independence House is a 50-bed nonprofit home in Fostoria, and its inspection record is the strongest thing it has going: 11 deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or jeopardy, with the last state visit in September 2024. Where it gives ground is staffing. At 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage, worth asking about directly if your family member needs help most on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 63.3% against a national 45.8%, so expect some churn among the aides providing daily care.

Eliza Jennings Home runs 4.10 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, and its staffing star rating reflects that. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops about 8% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 60.5% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people delivering that care keep changing. On inspections, the record shows 19 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent visit was November 2023, getting close to two and a half years old. A nonprofit with 126 beds, decent inspection history, and real staffing investment, undercut by churn and thinner weekends.

Autumn Hills in Huntsburg runs a tight ship on inspections, five deficiencies on record, none causing harm, no abuse findings, and a five-star health inspection rating from CMS. The trouble sits on the staffing side. Total nurse hours land at roughly the national average, but weekend coverage drops about 6% below its own weekday levels, and 53.3% of staff left over the past year against a national average near 46%. That churn matters more than a single snapshot, since replacing half your workforce annually makes consistent care harder to hold onto. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company, and the most recent inspection was in April 2026.

National Church Residences Chillicothe runs a tight ship on care quality, with recent inspection scores landing at 4 out of 5 stars and a clean deficiency record, 13 total citations but none involving harm or abuse, which is what you'd hope to see. Where it stumbles is staffing. The 4.42 daily nurse hours per resident beats the national average, but weekend coverage drops about 14% below weekdays, and turnover sits at 63% against a national 45.8%. That churn matters more than the headline number suggests. For a 48-bed nonprofit in Ross County, the care fundamentals look solid; the question is whether you can count on consistent faces on weekends.

Covenant Village Care Center runs 107 certified beds in Cincinnati under for-profit corporate ownership, and its numbers land mostly in the middle. Nurse staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover is 51% against a national 45.8%, so a little over half the nursing staff turns over each year. The current inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none are abuse-related. The last full inspection was February 8, 2024, and the home's quality measure rating is its strongest federal score.

Austinwoods runs 4.51 total nurse hours per resident day, about 17% above the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters because CMS gives the home only 1 out of 5 stars for staffing even as it scores 5 out of 5 on quality measures and 4 out of 5 on health inspections. The inspection record shows 16 deficiencies, two of them at harm or jeopardy level, plus one fine totaling $13,340, with the most recent inspection dated March 27, 2025. Ownership is for-profit and individual. Strong clinical numbers and low staffing stars sitting side by side is the tension here.

Astoria Place Of Silverton runs 98 certified beds as a for-profit partnership, and its inspection record is the part that would worry me most: 69 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and eight tied to abuse. Its last health inspection was April 2023, so that record isn't fresh. Staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, with weekends running roughly 12% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the number that stands out, 76.5% against a national average near 46%, meaning most of the people caring for residents were hired within the past year. Strong quality scores don't offset that instability.

Cedarvale Commons runs about 3.10 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends dip another 5% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 46 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, with the last inspection in July 2025. Turnover sits at 36.5%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some steadiness in who's actually on the floor. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are where the risk shows up.

Liberty Retirement Community of Lima runs 60 certified beds in Allen County under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed once you look past the headline number. Total nurse staffing sits at 4.27 hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, but weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. Staff turnover is the harder fact: 59.7% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new and still learning the building. The inspection record shows 51 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5.
