Lakeside Health And Rehab runs 85 certified beds in Lake City under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.99 hours per resident day, roughly 3% above the national average of 3.86. That edge shrinks on weekends, when coverage drops about 19% below the home's own weekday level, and staff turnover is 50.6% against a national 45.8%. The bigger issue is the inspection record: nine deficiencies, two of them at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $41,902. Its most recent inspection was May 1, 2026, and its health inspection rating is 1 out of 5. The 3-star quality measure rating doesn't offset that.

Staff turnover

Serious cites
0

Greene Acres runs 143 beds as a nonprofit, and its last inspection was in January 2026, recent enough that the record reflects how the place operates now. The eight deficiencies on file are all lower-level; none involved harm or jeopardy, and nothing abuse-related appears. Staffing sits just under the national average, about 2% below, but weekends dip roughly 21% below the home's own weekday coverage, which is where families tend to notice a difference. Turnover at 40% is better than the 45.8% national figure. The weaker spot in the federal stars is quality measures, where it scores 2 of 5, even as inspections and staffing each earn 4.

Mid-Wilshire Health Care Center runs 80 certified beds in Los Angeles under for-profit limited liability ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average, and weekends dip a bit below its own weekday level. The inspection record is the real story: 51 deficiencies on file, including 4 at harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $80,922. Its quality measure star is strong at 4 out of 5, but that reflects resident assessment data, not the day-to-day care environment. With a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and the most recent survey completed March 12, 2026, the pattern across these numbers is consistent.

Staff turnover
39%
Serious cites

Pruitthealth - Lithonia runs below the national average on nurse staffing, about 3.54 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, and the gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 22% below its own weekday level. That pattern matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and when there's simply less help on the floor. Turnover sits at 38.8%, which is better than the 45.8% national figure, so the staff who are there tend to stay. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in March 2026. Quality measures score well; staffing is the weak spot, and it's the number worth asking about directly.

Carlyle Place runs a healthy 4.91 nurse hours per resident day, about 27% above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage. The inspection record is the problem: 14 deficiencies on file, five of them at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and a single $105,498 fine. A September 2025 inspection is recent, but the health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5 while quality measures and staffing each land at 3. That combination, strong hours, weak oversight history, is what pulls the overall picture down. Ask specifically how the abuse-related findings were resolved and whether weekend coverage has changed.

Fountainview Center for Alzheimer's is a 120-bed for-profit home in DeKalb County, and the inspection record is the part you need to weigh hardest. Fourteen deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and $45,465 in fines across three events. Staffing sits slightly under the national average, and weekends run about a fifth thinner than weekdays, a pattern that matters in a dementia unit, where supervision is the safety net. Turnover is roughly average, and the 4/5 quality measure score shows some clinical care is being tracked well. But quality measures come from submitted data; inspections come from what surveyors found on-site. The May 2025 inspection is recent, which is worth something. Ask about weekend coverage and the abuse-related findings before you decide.

Wellington Place runs on thinner staffing than most homes nationally, 3.47 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 average, and weekends dip about 16% below what it manages during the week, which matters when a resident needs help on a Saturday. The inspection record shows three deficiencies, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $29,689; the most recent inspection was in August 2025, so that picture is current. Turnover sits at 48.1%, slightly above the national 45.8%, and the quality measure rating comes in at 1 out of 5 even as inspections and staffing each rate 4. The nonprofit ownership and recent survey work are the steadier parts here.

Lakepoint El Dorado runs lean on nursing hours, 3.02 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get thinner still, dropping about 17% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover is actually better than average at 33.3%, so the problem isn't churn; it's how few hands are scheduled per shift. The inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 25 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $32,261 in fines across three penalties. A December 2024 inspection keeps that record current, and this for-profit partnership's quality-measure score doesn't offset what surveyors have already documented.

Logan Manor is city-owned, and it runs 36 beds with nurse staffing at 4.41 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent above the national average, which is the strongest thing in its favor. The catch is who's still there month to month: turnover sits at 56.8 percent against a national 45.8 percent, and weekends run about 16 percent thinner than weekdays, so the coverage that looks good on paper may not feel steady at the bedside. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in December 2025. Federal quality measures come in at 2 stars.

Willow Wood runs about 120 beds as a nonprofit, and its nurses put in 4.37 hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent more than the national average of 3.86. That sounds solid until you look at how the hours land: weekend staffing drops about 17 percent below the home's own weekday level, and turnover sits at 50.4 percent against a national 45.8 percent. The current inspection record carries 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $40,248 fine. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so the picture is fairly current. Generous weekday coverage, thinner weekends, and a long deficiency list are the real story here.

Cherry Ridge runs 110 certified beds in Bastrop under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends thin out further, about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, so a Saturday fall or a Sunday infection gets less attention than a Tuesday one. Turnover lands at 38.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters more than it sounds: fewer unfamiliar faces means aides who know which resident wanders and which one needs prompting to eat. The current record shows 16 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. Inspectors last visited in June 2025.

Cura Of Monticello runs 4.38 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 14% above the national average, and that shows up in its staffing rating. Weekends dip about 8% below what the home provides on weekdays, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. The quality measure side is where the trouble sits: a 1 out of 5 there, against 19 deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse. The last inspection was January 2026, so the record is recent. As a nonprofit, there's no ownership pressure to weigh in its favor, but the inspection and quality numbers are the ones to ask about directly.

Oakland Park Communities runs 35 beds in Thief River Falls, and its numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.78 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage gets thinnest when families tend to visit. Turnover at 43.5% is slightly better than the national rate, but the inspection record is the real concern: 29 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $44,030 in fines. The most recent inspection was December 31, 2025, so the picture is current.

Arrington Living Center is city/county-owned, and its nurse staffing runs 4.61 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, which is a real strength. The catch is weekends: coverage drops about 18% below its own weekday level, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 46.8%, a hair above the national 45.8%, and the current record shows 7 deficiencies, 3 of them at harm or jeopardy level, including 1 abuse-related citation, plus two fines totaling $17,727. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so that record is fairly fresh. Strong weekday staffing, but the quality measure score and those harm-level findings are what pull the overall picture down.

Heritage of Webster County runs 43 beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.91 hours per resident day, barely above the 3.86 national average, a difference of about 1%. The bigger issue is consistency: weekend staffing drops roughly 21% below weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 59.5% against a national 45.8%. On inspections, the record shows 20 deficiencies, four tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was August 2025. Quality measures score well, but a one-star inspection rating and that much churn among caregivers are the numbers worth asking about directly.

Woodlawn Healthcare Center in Newport runs 53 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially the national average, with weekends about 15% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the strong spot: 39.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning fewer caregivers are walking out the door than at the typical home. The inspection record is where it gets uneven. Sixteen deficiencies are on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, and the two-star health inspection and quality measure ratings reflect that. The last survey was February 2026, so the picture is current. Families should ask directly about that abuse citation and how weekend coverage holds up.

Regeis Care Center, a 236-bed for-profit home in the Bronx, holds up well on inspections and quality measures, both rated 4 out of 5, and its 2025 inspection is recent. Staff turnover sits at 26.7%, notably better than the 45.8% national average, which matters for residents who value consistent caregivers. The catch is daily staffing itself: 3.56 nurse hours per resident, about 8% under the national average, with weekends roughly 17% lighter than weekdays. Twenty deficiencies are on record, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse. Those are the findings behind the middling overall picture, decent oversight, thinner coverage, and some serious citations worth asking about directly.

Bethel Lutheran runs a strong staffing operation on paper, 4.81 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, which helps explain its four-star staffing rating. But that margin thins on weekends, when coverage drops about 18% below the home's own weekday level, and the workforce itself is churning: 63% annual turnover against a national average near 46%. The inspection record is the bigger concern. Twenty-five deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in April 2026. Federal inspectors rated the health inspection side 2 out of 5. Plenty of hands on deck most weekdays, just not always the same hands, and not always enough of them.

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.

Glenhaven Retirement Village runs 120 certified beds in Chickasha under corporate, for-profit ownership. The raw staffing number looks strong, 4.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average of 3.86, but weekend staffing drops about 11% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't as steady as the headline figure suggests. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 29 deficiencies, 2 of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $14,433. The last inspection was December 19, 2024, so the record is fairly current. Zero abuse-related deficiencies is worth noting. The quality measure rating sits at 2/5 and staffing at 1/5, which tells you the daily reality doesn't match that hours-per-resident-day number.
