Villa Maria runs a leaner nursing floor than most, 3.78 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national figure, and weekends dip about 15% below what the home staffs during the week. What stands out is retention: 31% turnover against a 45.8% national average means the people who work here tend to stay, which matters more than a small gap in hours. Inspections are current, and the record shows 6 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, against a 4/5 health inspection rating. For-profit partnership ownership is worth knowing, but the staffing score and low turnover are the real story here. Weigh that harm-level finding carefully.

Brown Cty Comm Treatment Ctr-Bayshore Village is county-owned, which matters less than what the numbers show. Nurses give 4.69 hours of care per resident per day, about 21% more than the national average, and staff turnover sits at 24.3% against a national 45.8%, that kind of retention usually means people stay because the place works. Weekend coverage drops roughly 17% below weekdays, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Thirteen deficiencies on record, none at the harm level, one abuse-related; the last full inspection was December 2024. The quality measure score is the weak spot here, and it's worth asking what specifically drives it.

Woodside Lutheran Home runs a strong staffing operation, 5.23 nurse hours per resident day is well above what most homes provide, and the weekend dip of about 16% is smaller than what you'll see at plenty of places. Turnover sits just under the national figure, and the inspection record is clean: two deficiencies, neither at the harm level, with a visit as recent as September 2025. The one soft spot is the quality measure rating, which at 2 out of 5 suggests the clinical outcomes data isn't keeping pace with everything else. If you're weighing this one, ask specifically about falls, pressure sores, and antipsychotic use, that's where the gap tends to show up.

St. Camillus runs a 50-bed nonprofit home in Wauwatosa where the day-to-day staffing is genuinely strong, 4.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only about 9% below its own weekday level, which is modest by industry standards. Turnover sits at 41.5%, a bit better than the national 45.8%. The trouble shows up on the inspection side: 17 deficiencies on the current record, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with $65,881 in fines and a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating from CMS. That contrast, high staffing and quality marks against a recent, serious inspection history, is what holds the overall grade down.

American Lutheran Home-Mondovi runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership, and the numbers suggest that mission shows up in practice. Nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, but a 20% annual turnover rate is less than half the national figure of 45.8%, which means residents likely see familiar faces instead of a rotating cast. The inspection record supports that: seven deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated May 7, 2026. Weekend staffing dips about 7% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays.

Luther Home sits in Marinette with 80 certified beds and a nonprofit owner, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noting: 4.13 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, with weekends dipping about 7% below its own weekday levels. Turnover runs 37.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. On the record are 24 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though 6 are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so the picture is current. Quality and staffing each earned 4 of 5 stars; health inspection earned 3.

Bethany St Joseph runs a nonprofit shop with 100 beds, and its strongest number is staffing: 4.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, which is why CMS gives it top marks there. Weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 40.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The tradeoff is quality measures at 2 out of 5, plus 13 deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm, and a single $3,145 fine. The last inspection was June 2025, so the record is recent. Good hands on deck; watch the care outcomes.

Rocky Knoll Health Care is county-owned, and that shows in the staffing numbers, 4.99 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 29% above the national average, which is the kind of margin that matters on a Tuesday afternoon when someone needs help. The tradeoffs are real, though. Turnover sits at 58.6%, well above the national rate, and 27 deficiencies appear on the current record, three tied to abuse, though none reached the level of actual harm or jeopardy. Inspections were recent, March 2025, and the health inspection side scored low relative to quality measures and staffing. If you're weighing this one, ask how they hold staffing on weekends, which run about 6% lighter than weekdays.

Clearview is county-owned, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture: 5.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 31% above the national average, with a 5-star staffing rating to match. Turnover sits at 35.2%, well below the national 45.8%. Weekends run about 9% leaner than weekdays, so ask how that gap gets covered. The record isn't spotless, 9 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $9,110, though nothing abuse-related. A 4-star inspection and a fresh August 2025 survey help. The 3-star quality measures are the soft spot worth asking about.

Peabody Manor runs a nonprofit operation with 58 beds in Appleton, and its staffing is the clearest strength: 4.39 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average. That helps explain the top staffing marks, and turnover at 35.1% sits below the national rate, though weekend coverage drops about 10% from weekday levels. The concerns live on the inspection side. The current record shows 23 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse. The last inspection was in December 2024. Quality measure scores come in low, and the mix of strong staffing with a thicker deficiency record is what pulls the overall picture down to a solid-but-not-clean range.

Crest View runs 50 beds as a nonprofit, and its inspection record is the strongest thing about it, a five-star health inspection rating, four total deficiencies, none of them causing harm or involving abuse, and the most recent survey done March 31, 2026. Staffing sits right at the national mark of 3.86 hours per resident day, close enough to call it even, though weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover is 36.5%, well under the 45.8% national average, which suggests people stay. The soft spot is quality measures at two stars, so ask what specific clinical measures are pulling that down and how the staff plans to address them.

Morrow Memorial Home runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.33 per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average, and that's the main reason its staffing rating sits at the top of the scale. The trade-off shows up in care outcomes: the quality measure rating is only 2 out of 5, and the current record carries 13 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below weekday levels, and turnover runs at 40.6%, a bit better than the national 45.8%. The last inspection was in June 2025, so the picture is recent. Church-affiliated and nonprofit, 80 beds.

Aria At Villa Pines runs 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average, and that staffing depth is the main reason it holds up. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 20% below its own weekday level, so the hours are there on paper, but not evenly across the week. Turnover sits at 45.7%, essentially identical to the national figure, so continuity isn't unusually bad or good. Fifteen deficiencies appear on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The last inspection was April 2026, so the picture is recent.

Golden Age Manor runs on county money, and its staffing numbers are right at the national line, 3.82 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 average. That's basically a wash on paper, but weekends drop about 13% below the home's own weekday level, which is where thin coverage tends to show up. The bigger issue is the inspection record: 28 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to cause harm, though nothing abuse-related. State inspectors were last in on April 10, 2025, and gave the health inspection side 2 out of 5 stars. Quality measures land at 3, staffing at 4. A county home with a clean abuse record and a recent visit, but 28 findings is a lot to carry.

Pigeon Falls Hcc runs on one of the steadiest crews you'll find in Wisconsin, 13.9% annual turnover against a national average near 46% means aides and nurses here tend to stay, which matters more than almost anything for residents who need consistent hands. Nurse staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 7% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins a bit when families visit. The county-owned, 37-bed home was inspected in July 2025 and carries seven deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Recent inspections look strong; the quality measure scores are the weaker signal.

Oak Park Place Of Nakoma runs a lean 33-bed operation on Madison's west side, and the nurse staffing here is genuinely heavy, 5.49 hours per resident day, roughly 42 percent above the national figure, with weekends dipping only slightly below weekdays. That's the kind of coverage families notice when they visit at odd hours. The tension sits elsewhere: 30 deficiencies on the current record, including one tied to abuse, even though none rose to the level of actual harm. Staff turnover of 58.5 percent is well above the national 45.8 percent, meaning the people providing that generous staffing are often new. The most recent inspection came in January 2026.

Maryhill Manor runs a 50-bed nonprofit home in Niagara, and its nurse staffing lands almost exactly on the national average, with weekends about 7% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 45.3%, a hair under the national figure, so the workforce here is stable by industry standards, not exceptional. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 17 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a single $50,606 fine. The most recent inspection was March 25, 2026, so the findings are current rather than stale. Quality measures score well; the survey history is where the risk sits.

Kinnic Health and Rehabilitation Center is a 68-bed for-profit home in River Falls, and its numbers land just about where you'd expect a B to come from. Nurse staffing sits at 3.82 hours per resident day, a hair under the national average, and weekends run roughly 9% thinner than weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family tends to visit on Saturdays. The stronger side is retention: 36.8% turnover beats the 45.8% national figure, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces. Inspections are the concern. Twenty-four deficiencies on record, two tied to abuse, and a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, though none reached actual harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was June 2025, so the picture is current.

Bethany Home runs on a corporate for-profit model with 100 certified beds, and the raw staffing number looks good on paper, 4.52 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent above the national average. But that average hides churn: 73.7 percent of staff turned over in a year, versus about 46 percent nationally, and weekend coverage drops about 11 percent below the home's own weekday level. Inspections tell a mixed story too. Ten deficiencies sit on the current record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, though the most recent inspection was in May 2025 and the quality measure score came back strong.

Juliette Manor runs about 4.92 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 27% above the national average, which is why it earns a five-star staffing mark from CMS. That advantage narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 14% below its own weekday level. The record isn't clean: 13 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, alongside a 50% annual turnover rate that runs slightly above the national 45.8%. State inspectors were last in on February 5, 2025. So you have a nonprofit home with strong weekday staffing and recent scrutiny finding real problems, worth asking about directly before you decide.
