Moosehaven runs on 5.34 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 38% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only about 10% below its own weekday levels, a smaller drop than many homes see. The bigger number is turnover: 19.4% annually against a national average near 46%, meaning the people caring for residents largely stay put. Inspections back it up, with a five-star health inspection rating and just five deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related. The most recent inspection was in August 2024, so the picture is current. For a 72-bed nonprofit in Orange Park, the staffing consistency and low turnover are doing most of the work here.

Skytop View runs on about 5.95 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national figure of 3.86, and weekend coverage barely dips from its weekday level. State inspectors visited in March 2025 and logged 13 deficiencies, none involving harm or jeopardy and none tied to abuse. Staff turnover sits at 43.8%, a touch under the 45.8% national rate. This is a small for-profit home, 30 beds, individually owned, so the numbers rest on a narrow staff, and 13 deficiencies is a real count even without any at the harm level. The staffing margin is what separates it.

Candler Skilled Nursing Unit runs 22 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 7.95 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. That holds up on weekends too, dipping only about 2% below weekday levels when many homes thin out. Turnover sits at 30.4%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. The tradeoff is a middle-of-the-road 3/5 on quality measures, though the 4/5 inspection rating and seven deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level look clean. A small unit with this much nurse time per resident is unusual, and the recent March 2026 inspection means the record is current.

Staffing is the real story at Terraces at Peachtree Hills Place: 7.90 nurse hours per resident day is more than double the national average of 3.86, and that coverage holds steady on weekends rather than thinning out the way it often does elsewhere. Turnover sits at 24.3% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that care tend to stick around. The current record shows seven deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in May 2026. For a 25-bed for-profit LLC, the weak spot is quality measures at 3 out of 5 stars, not the hands-on care.

Meridian Village Care Center runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership in Glen Carbon, and the numbers back up what that structure often buys: time with residents. Nurse staffing sits at 4.66 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth above the national average, and weekends dip only about 5% below weekdays, a small gap compared with what many homes show. Staff turnover is 28%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents. The current record carries seven deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. A 5/5 inspection rating and a November 2024 survey round out a record that looks stable rather than lucky.

Bethany Home runs on 4.50 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average, and its weekend coverage dips about 13% below its own weekday level, a gap worth asking about if you're planning visits or worrying about Saturday-night response times. Staff turnover sits at 32.1%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn than most places and more familiar faces on the floor. The inspection record is thin: two deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the last survey in May 2025. Corporate for-profit ownership, 66 beds, and a clean survey history carry real weight here.

Clarence Nursing Home runs 46 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its recent inspection history is genuinely clean, a July 2025 survey with seven deficiencies on record, none of them rising to harm or jeopardy. The two abuse-related citations are worth asking about directly, since those tend to describe how the home handles incidents rather than the incidents themselves. Staffing sits at 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 10% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even. What offsets that is retention: 30% turnover against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses here tend to stay.

Scottish Rite Park runs on unusually steady staffing for a 51-bed nonprofit home in Des Moines. Nurses provide 5.15 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and only 14% of staff left last year, against a national rate near 46%. Weekend coverage dips about 12% from weekday levels, which is worth asking about, but the bigger caution sits in the inspection record: nine deficiencies, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and six fines totaling $60,726. The most recent state visit was June 2025, so the record is current. Strong care numbers paired with real compliance problems, that mix is what a B reflects.

Wilton Retirement Community runs a small 34-bed nonprofit home in Muscatine County, and the staffing numbers stand out: 5.36 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 39% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, which is worth knowing if you're planning visits or worrying about Saturday care. Staff turnover sits at 28.3% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. On the record: seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated December 31, 2025. Five stars on health inspections, five on staffing, four on quality measures.

Larksfield Place runs on lean, steady staffing: 4.55 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average, and weekend coverage drops only about 9% from weekday levels, so care doesn't thin out much on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 33.9% against a national average near 46%, which means the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in October 2024. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders. The numbers describe a home that is well-staffed, stable, and currently clear of serious findings.

Leonardville Nursing Home runs on unusually deep staffing for a 55-bed nonprofit, 5.10 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage only dips about 13% below weekdays, which is a smaller drop than many homes show. Staff turnover sits at 34.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people here tend to stay. The tradeoff is a longer paper trail: 12 deficiencies on record, one abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. A clean five-star inspection rating and a recent October 2024 survey back that up.

Breckinridge Memorial runs a small 18-bed nonprofit home in Hardinsburg, and the people on the floor are the strongest part of it. Nurse staffing sits at 5.07 hours per resident day, roughly 31% above the national average, and turnover at 43.3% is a touch better than the 45.8% norm. Weekends thin out by about 14% against weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs help then. The harder reading is on inspections: two health deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $10,364, with the most recent inspection in March 2026. Strong care hours and a recent abuse-related finding can both be true; weigh which matters more for your situation.

Southwood At Norwell runs a tight ship on the numbers that matter most. Staffing sits at 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and turnover is where this home really separates itself: 28.7% versus 45.8% nationally, meaning caregivers tend to stay. The ten deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in January 2026. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. For a for-profit partnership, the consistency here is unusual.

Maple Lawn runs on county money out of Branch County, and the staffing shows it: 4.67 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 9% below its own weekdays. Turnover sits at 30.9% against a national 45.8%, which matters more than any single inspection score because it's what keeps familiar faces at the bedside. The record isn't spotless, 20 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, but the most recent state visit came in August 2025 and produced a four-star inspection result. Strong staffing and steady retention are doing real work here; the abuse-related citations are the part worth asking about directly.

Cass County Medical Care Facility runs on 4.85 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the national average, and its weekend coverage stays within about 12% of weekday levels, a gap that's often wider elsewhere. Staff turnover sits at 38.8%, below the 45.8% national figure, which matters for residents who benefit from seeing familiar faces. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 22 deficiencies, four serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse, and two fines totaling $15,593. Its last inspection was in March 2025. County-owned and small at 80 beds, this is a well-staffed home with some compliance problems worth asking about directly.

Raybrook Manor is a nonprofit home in Grand Rapids with 101 certified beds, and the numbers behind its grade are mostly about people. Nurse staffing runs 4.77 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and only about 11% of that thins out on weekends. Annual turnover sits at 31.3% against a national average near 46%, which matters more than it sounds, since aides and nurses who stay put know the residents. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, though the most recent inspection this March earned 4 out of 5 stars. Worth asking about those abuse citations directly.

Good Shepherd Lutheran Home runs on strong staffing: 4.92 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average, with turnover at 38.6% compared to 45.8% nationally. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits or needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. The trade-off is inspections. Twenty deficiencies on the current record, including one abuse-related citation, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was April 2025. Quality measures score well, but that recent survey history is the part of this home's record that deserves your attention before you decide.

Lakeview Methodist runs lean on turnover compared to most places, 36.5% against a national average near 46%, and it puts more nursing hours into each resident's day than the typical home, roughly 23% above the national figure. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops about 14% below its own weekday level, so care can look different on a Saturday than a Tuesday. Its 26 deficiencies are worth noting, though none rose to harm or jeopardy and none involved abuse. Inspectors were last on site in November 2025, so the record is current. For a nonprofit home of 72 beds, the numbers say steady hands, thinner weekend coverage, and a clean safety record on paper.

Mapleton Community Home runs on 4.13 nurse staffing hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 17.6%, well under half the national rate of 45.8%. That retention matters more than any single number here, because consistent caregivers know residents' routines and catch changes early. Weekend staffing drops roughly 12% below its own weekday level, a gap worth asking about directly. The current record shows 12 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. As a nonprofit with 59 beds, it's small enough that the same faces show up shift after shift.

St Williams Living Center runs a 53-bed nonprofit home in Parkers Prairie, and its nurse staffing sits well above what most Minnesota nursing homes provide, about 5.15 hours per resident day. That cushion matters, though weekends drop roughly 13% below the home's own weekday coverage, and turnover near 30% is lower than the national average but still means roughly a third of the staff turns over each year. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 10 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus one fine of $14,901. A February 2026 inspection is recent, so the record is current, not stale. Strong staffing and quality scores don't erase those findings.
