The Gardens of Taylor Glen is an 8-bed nonprofit home in Concord, and its inspection record is genuinely clean: 6 deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or jeopardy, and nothing abuse-related. A 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating with a December 2025 survey means the state looked recently and found no serious problems, which is the main thing a small home's record can tell you. Where it gives ground is staffing, a B here reflects a home that passes its inspections comfortably but doesn't post the kind of nurse hours per resident that the strongest performers nationally do. For eight residents that gap matters less than it would at scale.

The Shannon Gray Rehabilitation & Recovery Center runs 150 certified beds in Jamestown under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture, nine deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none tied to abuse, with a survey done in April 2025. Staffing is where it thins out: 3.83 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average, weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level, and turnover hits 56.9% against a national 45.8%. That churn rate is the number worth sitting with. Consistent caregivers matter more than almost anything else for someone adjusting to a new home, and nearly six in ten leaving each year makes that harder to promise.

Mckinley Nursing runs 176 certified beds in Canton under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stands out. Nurses provide 2.91 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less care time, and weekends drop about 11% below what the home manages on weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 52.3%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means the people left are often the newest ones. The health inspection record shows 77 deficiencies, including six tied to abuse and one at the harm or jeopardy level. Quality measures score well, but that's the part of the picture families see least. Staffing is where the daily experience lives.

Kendal at Oberlin is a small skilled unit, five certified beds, run by a nonprofit corporation, and its inspection record is spotless: zero deficiencies of any kind, including none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, from an inspection on April 28, 2026. That's rare, and it's reflected in the top federal health inspection rating. Where the picture gets more ordinary is in the day-to-day measures ElderGrade weighs alongside inspections, which is what pulls the overall grade off the top mark despite that clean survey. With only five beds, this is a very small operation, so the numbers on staffing and turnover can swing hard from one reporting period to the next. Ask the administrator directly what those look like right now.

Forest Glen Rehabilitation And Healthcare Center runs 80 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is a mixed bag. Health and quality measure ratings both sit at 4 out of 5, and the most recent inspection came in February 2026, so the picture is reasonably current, but 18 deficiencies are on file, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. Staff turnover is the bigger concern: 61.7% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning roughly three in five employees left within the year. High turnover often shows up in daily care, even when survey scores look respectable. Ask specifically how the home retains direct-care aides before you decide.

York Manor is a 60-bed nonprofit home in Muskogee, and its inspection record is the real headline: 41 deficiencies on the current books, though none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. A single-star health inspection rating with a recent survey, completed in September 2025, tells you regulators have found repeated problems worth writing down. The staffing picture is mixed. Total nurse hours run about 17% under the national average, yet weekend coverage actually holds slightly above this home's own weekday level, unusual, since weekend gaps are common. Turnover is the number that concerns me: 69.4% against a national 45.8% means most of the aides and nurses caring for residents are new, and that churn is hard on people who need consistency.

Meeker Nursing Center runs about 3.54 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday staffing. The bigger issue is turnover: 59.6% of staff leave each year, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for how well residents are known day to day. Inspections turned up 15 deficiencies, including one at the harm level, with $8,427 in fines across a single penalty. A 2025-09-11 inspection means the record is fairly current. For-profit, limited liability ownership. The 4/5 staffing star sits oddly beside a 2/5 quality measure rating, worth asking about directly.

Barnsdall Nursing Home runs 40 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers split in two directions. Its staffing rating sits at the bottom of the federal scale, meaning resident care hours fall well short of what CMS considers adequate, that's the single biggest thing to weigh here. The inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, four of them tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection was in August 2023. A mid-range inspection rating with a bottom-tier staffing score tells you the building passes minimum checks but runs lean on the people actually doing the daily care. Ask about direct-care hours per resident before you decide.

Phoebe Allentown runs 343 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing sits at 3.78 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 46.9%, slightly above the national 45.8%, meaning roughly half the nursing staff turns over in a year. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse. One fine totaling $11,087 is on file, and the most recent inspection was July 17, 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measure scores sit at 2 out of 5.

Caring Heart runs 269 certified beds in Philadelphia under nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.37 hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 9% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 44.3%, close to the national 45.8%, so that's not the standout problem here. The inspection record is. Fifty-six deficiencies are on file, one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $24,675. The last inspection was June 12, 2025. Residents' quality measures score well, but staffing and health inspections both come in at 2 out of 5 stars, the gap between how the place measures and how it's actually run is worth asking about directly.

Harmony Hills runs a 55-bed for-profit home in Wexford with nurse staffing at 4.05 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, which is the strongest number on its record. That edge narrows on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 6% below its own weekday level, and staff turnover sits at 56.1% against a national 45.8%, more than half the workforce turning over in a year. Inspections in July 2025 turned up 29 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, but the health inspection and quality measure ratings both landed at 2 out of 5. The staffing holds up; the clinical and compliance side is where the gaps show.

Centro De Cuidado Prolongado San Lucas is a small church-affiliated nonprofit in Rio Piedras, and its record is troubling. The 25-bed home carries 86 deficiencies, including four at harm or jeopardy level and nine tied to abuse, that's an unusually heavy count for a building this size. Federal data put its health inspection and staffing ratings both at the lowest rung, meaning care quality and day-to-day coverage are each well below what regulators expect. The last inspection was March 27, 2026, so the findings are current, not stale. If you're considering this home, the numbers say the problems are active and recent, and you should ask hard questions before moving anyone in.

The Scandinavian Home in Cranston runs on a curious split: inspectors found no harm-level problems across 13 deficiencies at its most recent survey in November 2024, and the government's inspection rating comes in at the top of the scale. But staffing sits at the bottom, 1 out of 5 stars, which tells you the building isn't putting enough direct care hours per resident relative to what CMS expects. The deficiencies are mostly paperwork and process issues, not residents getting hurt, that matters. Still, low staffing in a 74-bed nonprofit means call bells get answered slower and hands are stretched thinner, especially on nights and weekends. Ask about actual aide-to-resident ratios by shift before you decide.

Kingston Center earned top marks on its last health inspection, which happened in January 2025, inspectors found nine deficiencies, none of them serious enough to cause harm, though one was abuse-related. The bigger issue is staffing, where it lands at the bottom of the federal scale. That gap matters more than it sounds: a home can pass inspection on any given day and still struggle to keep enough hands on deck night after night, which is when problems tend to surface. With 55 beds and corporate ownership, this is a small for-profit where the clinical record looks better than the day-to-day coverage does. Ask pointed questions about nurse aide turnover and weekend staffing before deciding.

Pocotaligo River runs a nonprofit home in Manning with 88 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are its clearest strength, 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average of 3.86. That helps explain a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating. But weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the care your family member gets on a Saturday may look different from a Tuesday. The inspection record is thinner: 12 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $17,537 and a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating. Turnover sits at 46.2%, essentially the national average.

The Mcnair center runs on 2.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 30% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about another 10% below its own weekday level. That's the trade-off families notice first, since less coverage shows up in slower response times and busier aides. On the other hand, staff turnover sits at 32% against a national 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay. Its record shows 12 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in January 2026 and a mid-range 3/5 on health inspections. Quality measures score 2/5, the weakest part of the profile.

Sedgewood Manor runs 38 beds in Hopkins under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.84 nurse hours per resident day. That thin margin gets worse on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday levels. Staff turnover is the bigger flag: 60% a year against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new to the building. Inspections tell a similar story, a 1-star health inspection rating and 18 deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was July 29, 2025. Quality measures score better than staffing or inspections here. If you're weighing this one, ask specifically about weekend coverage and how they've addressed that abuse finding.

The Gables of Pelham runs 45 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing score sits at the bottom of CMS's scale, one star out of five. Annual turnover is 53.1 percent against a national average of 45.8, so more than half the staff leaves every year. The inspection record shows 10 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to count as harm or jeopardy, and two tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $11,196 are on file, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. Quality measures also land at two stars. If you're considering this home, ask directly how they're addressing turnover and what changed after those abuse-related findings.

Stoneridge runs 38 beds in Goodlettsville under for-profit limited liability ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.40 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 18% below the home's own weekday coverage. Fifteen deficiencies sit on the current record, though none reached harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, and the last inspection was in March 2026. The split in CMS ratings tells the story, a 3 for health inspections but a 1 for quality measures, meaning the day-to-day care processes the government tracks aren't measuring up even where the inspection itself went reasonably.

Parkwood In The Pines runs on thin staffing: 3.14 nurse hours per resident day, about 19% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday levels. That gap shows up in the federal staffing rating, which sits at 1 out of 5 stars, while annual turnover of 54.6% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record carries 32 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $21,473. Quality measures score 5 stars, but a hospital-district home with this much turnover and this few hands is one to visit unannounced.
