Staff turnover

The numbers here pull in two directions. On paper, residents' clinical outcomes look strong, the quality measure rating is perfect, but staffing is where the trouble sits, with the lowest possible rating, a nurse-to-resident ratio just under the national average, and weekend coverage that drops about 11% below weekday levels. A 57.1% annual turnover rate means more than half the nursing staff leaves every year, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters more than raw hours when care depends on knowing the residents. There are 25 deficiencies on record, including two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was October 2024.

Morris Nursing Home is small, 18 beds, and for-profit, corporate-owned. The nurse staffing number is genuinely good: 4.45 hours per resident day, about 15 percent above the national average, and that's what earns it four stars on CMS staffing. But the same staff is turning over at 70.4 percent a year, well above the 45.8 percent national rate, so the people giving that care keep changing. Inspections put it at three stars, with 12 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one abuse-related. The last inspection was in late December 2025, so the picture is current.

Steubenville Country Club Manor runs 54 beds as a for-profit corporation, and its staffing sits at 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping another 10% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover is 51.7% against a national 45.8%, so aides and nurses are cycling out faster than average. The inspection record is the harder part: 82 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, seven tied to abuse, and a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating from CMS despite a February 2025 inspection. Quality and staffing measures each land at 3 stars, but the survey history is what families should weigh most.

Carriage Inn of Cadiz runs 70 certified beds under for-profit corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are where the gap widens: staffing drops roughly 17% below the home's own weekday level, which matters if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 40.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around longer than at the typical home. On the record: 31 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a single $14,991 fine. The last inspection was February 2024.

Circle of Care sits in Salem with 55 certified beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and the nurse staffing number stands out first: 5.15 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average. That's real coverage, though weekends run about 15 percent thinner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 47.3 percent, slightly worse than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the good staffing headline comes with a churn problem underneath it. The harder issue is the inspection record: 42 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $179,235 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so this is current, not stale history.

Wexner Heritage House runs 4.53 nurse hours per resident day, about 17% above the national average, and its quality measure rating sits at the top of the scale. That's the good news. The inspection record is where it falls apart: 72 deficiencies on file, three at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, with a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating despite a very recent December 2025 survey. Staff turnover is 51.3%, worse than the 45.8% national average, and weekend staffing drops roughly 9% below weekday levels. Higher raw staffing hours haven't translated into a clean record here, and families should weigh that gap carefully.

Rae-Ann Westlake sits in Cuyahoga County with 130 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the picture is mixed in a way that matters. Nurse staffing runs 3.42 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends dip another 11% below the home's own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover at 42.6% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which helps continuity but doesn't fix the raw hours. Inspections look stronger: a February 2024 survey, 17 deficiencies on record including one at the harm level and none tied to abuse. Solid quality and inspection marks, softer staffing.

Mount Washington Care Center runs 129 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits just under the national average, 3.82 hours per resident day against 3.86. That small gap matters less than the pattern around it: weekend staffing drops about 9% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover is 52.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure. Inspectors cited 37 deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse findings, and the last inspection was in March 2025. The staffing and inspection ratings both land at 2 out of 5 stars, even as quality measures score 5, a split worth asking about directly.

Continental Manor runs a lean nursing floor: 3.25 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage. That thin schedule is the main reason its staffing rating lands at 2 out of 5, even though inspectors gave it 4 stars and its quality measures scored a full 5. Annual turnover of 52.8% adds churn on top of the low hours, which matters more when a building runs this close to the margin. The inspection record is decent but not spotless, 8 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse. The most recent state visit was August 2024, so the picture is fairly current. For-profit corporate ownership rounds out the profile. Worth a visit, and worth asking directly how they cover a weekend callout.

Green Meadows runs 110 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership in Louisville, and the numbers worth knowing are the staffing and inspection ones. Nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover of 52.3% tops the national figure of 45.8%, so the person caring for your family member is more likely than average to be new or on the way out. The inspection record is the harder part: 52 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with a $28,763 fine and a February 2025 inspection. The five-star quality measure rating reflects reported clinical data, but on staffing and inspections, this home sits below average.

Brookwood Care Center runs 4.20 nurse hours per resident per day, about 9% above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 53.4% against a national 45.8%, so the people around your family member likely change often. The current record shows 36 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, plus five fines totaling $28,517. The last inspection was January 23, 2026. Quality measures score well, staffing and inspections land in the middle. A for-profit corporation owns the 125-bed home. Solid numbers on care hours and quality, but the turnover and abuse-related findings deserve your questions before you decide.

Holzer Senior Care Center runs on thinner staffing than most homes: 3.40 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 7% below its own weekday levels. That gap shows up in the numbers, 70% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, and a two-star CMS staffing rating. The inspection record is heavier than you'd want for a 41-bed nonprofit: 31 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. A 5/5 quality measure score and a recent May 2025 inspection are the bright spots, but the staffing and compliance picture is what a family should weigh hardest here.

Momentous Health At Vandalia runs lean on nursing staff, 3.03 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That's a for-profit LLC with 49% annual turnover, meaning roughly half the nursing staff turns over every year. The 45 deficiencies on record, three of them abuse-related, line up with a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating. What pulls the picture up is the quality measure score at 5 out of 5, and its last inspection was March 2026, so the record is current. If you're weighing this one, ask specifically how weekends are covered and what those three abuse citations involved.

West View Healthy Living is a 93-bed nonprofit home in Wooster that just went through a fresh inspection in January 2025 and came out with a strong four-star health inspection rating. The trouble sits elsewhere: its staffing rating is one star, and 53.9% of staff turned over in a year, well above the 45.8% national average, that churn makes consistent daily care harder to deliver, which likely drags down its two-star quality measure score. Twenty deficiencies are on record, two tied to abuse, though none reached actual harm or jeopardy. A solid inspection shouldn't hide a thin, unstable workforce.

Heritage of Hudson runs lean on nursing hours, 3.23 per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average, and weekend coverage slips about 7% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That thin margin is what pulls its staffing rating down to 2 out of 5, even though turnover at 39.4% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, meaning people tend to stay. The inspection record is cleaner: 8 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse findings, and a survey as recent as May 2025. For 80 beds under corporate ownership, the care side looks steady, it's the daily staffing cushion that's tight.

Ohio Eastern Star in Mount Vernon runs 86 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its health inspections come in about average, three stars, with the state's most recent look on February 12, 2026. The record itself shows 17 deficiencies, including one involving actual harm or jeopardy and one abuse-related finding, so there's real substance behind the paperwork. Where this home stands apart is staffing: one star, the bottom of the federal scale, which means aide and nurse hours per resident fall well short of what most homes provide. Quality measures also land mid-range at three. For a family weighing a move here, the question worth pressing is how thin coverage gets on evenings and weekends.

The Enclave at Cambridge runs 3.63 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 7% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Its inspection record is the harder problem: 36 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, with $194,587 in fines across two penalties. A 4/5 quality measure score reflects charted care indicators, not the inspection findings. This for-profit LLC-operated home was last inspected December 18, 2025.

Jennings Hall sits at 156 beds in Garfield Heights, run by a nonprofit corporation. Nurse staffing runs 3.66 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover is 48.6%, a few points above the national rate, so the people caring for residents change fairly often. Inspectors last visited in September 2024 and found 17 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, which matters more than the raw count suggests. The federal stars land at 3 for health inspections, 3 for quality measures, and 2 for staffing, so the weaker numbers here are about coverage and consistency rather than safety violations.

Tranquility of Richmond Heights runs 60 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is the weak spot: 3.79 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average, and weekends drop about 5% below its own weekday level. Turnover is the bigger concern, 77.3% of nursing staff leaving annually, well above the 45.8% national figure, which makes consistent care hard to sustain. Inspections back that up with 33 deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. The 5/5 quality measure rating stands out against a 2/5 inspection score and 1/5 staffing score, so ask how that quality number is earned.

Liberty Nursing Center Of Mansfield runs 68 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its strongest number is staff retention: 32% turnover against a national average near 46%. That stability matters, because consistent caregivers know the residents. Staffing hours land at 3.64 per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average, and weekends dip about 15% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the harder read: 35 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and a $41,243 fine, with the most recent inspection in May 2025.
