Nurse staffing at The Creston runs 0.93 hours per resident day, about a quarter of what you'd see at the typical American nursing home. Nearly every worker who was there a year ago is gone now, with turnover at 95.4% against a national figure under 46%. That churn shows up in the inspection record: 61 deficiencies, four serious enough to cause harm, two tied to abuse, and $122,699 in fines across three penalties. The most recent inspection was February 27, 2026, so the picture is current. Nonprofit ownership hasn't translated into steadier care here, the staffing and quality stars sit at 1 and 2 out of 5. Families considering this one should ask hard questions about who's actually on the floor.
