University Crossing runs on 5.87 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again what the typical American nursing home provides, and that's the number doing most of the work here. Weekend staffing dips about 9% from its own weekday level, so coverage is thinner Saturdays and Sundays, but still well above average. Staff turnover sits at 44.6%, basically in line with the national picture, which is to say this is a field where nearly half of caregivers leave within a year. Five deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, and the last full inspection was December 2024. As a nonprofit, its dollars don't flow to shareholders.

Shands Jacksonville runs a tight ship. Nurse staffing sits at 5.79 hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average of 3.86, and only about 27% of the nursing staff turns over in a year, well under the 45.8% national figure. Weekend coverage dips around 14% below weekday levels, the one soft spot worth asking about. The inspection record is spotless: zero deficiencies, none at harm level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in February 2026. This is a nonprofit hospital-based unit with 56 beds, and its staffing and quality scores back up what the numbers say.

Riviera Health Resort runs 4.80 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and that staffing shows up as five stars from CMS on both staffing and quality measures. Turnover sits at 38.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, though weekend coverage drops about 13% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is clean where it counts: six deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in October 2025. For a 223-bed for-profit in Coral Gables, the numbers hold up.

The Health Center at Sinai Residences runs 5.89 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with 22.5% annual turnover against a national figure near 46%. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so if you're visiting on a Saturday, expect a lighter floor than midweek. Its seven deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025, so the picture is current. That combination, heavy staffing, low turnover, a clean harm record, is doing the real work here.

The 17 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Inspectors were last on site in January 2026, and the nonprofit ownership means no shareholder pressure on the budget.

Pebblebrook Health Center runs 60 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 5.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 40% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 5% below weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 34.1% against a national 45.8%, both signs of a steadier floor than most. The tradeoffs are modest: a 3/5 on health inspections, 10 deficiencies on record with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $19,408. The last inspection was May 2025, so the picture is current.

Ashton Memorial Living Center runs on unusually generous nurse staffing for a 38-bed home, 4.65 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, which is the main reason its marks come out as strong as they do. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops about 12% below the home's own weekday level, and staff turnover sits at 52.4%, several points above the national figure. The inspection record shows 24 deficiencies, none at the harm level, but one tied to abuse. Corporate-owned and last inspected in December 2025, it's a small rural facility that performs well on paper and depends heavily on whether it can hold onto the people providing that care.

The Idaho State Veterans Home in Pocatello runs on state government ownership and 66 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.95 hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average of 3.86. That number carries real weight, though weekends dip about 14% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. Turnover runs 48.6%, a bit above the national 45.8%. The current inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but 4 are abuse-related, which families should ask about directly. The last inspection was in August 2025, so the record is recent.

Blessing Hospital Snu runs 20 certified beds in Quincy, and the numbers behind its record are strong. Nurse staffing sits at 6.69 hours per resident day, roughly 73% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing dips about 32% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays even though the overall floor is high. Annual turnover is 33.3%, better than the 45.8% national average, which matters for consistency of care. The home carries only two deficiencies on its current record, neither at the harm level and none abuse-related, with its last inspection in October 2024.

Renaissance Care Center runs 7.80 nurse hours per resident day, roughly double the national average, and that staffing shows up in a lower turnover rate too, 26.1% against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below weekdays, which is a normal pattern but worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays. The tradeoff sits on the inspection side: 28 deficiencies on record, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse. State surveyors were last in on January 9, 2025, so the findings are recent. Corporate-owned and Medicare-certified at 120 beds, this is a home with real bedside hours and a compliance record that needs a closer look before you decide.

Apostolic Christian Skylines runs on 4.92 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home. Weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday afternoon. The 42.2% turnover is a touch better than the national 45.8%, meaning most caregivers who start here tend to stay a while. State inspectors visited in October 2024 and found nine deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and none tied to abuse. Five stars on both inspections and staffing, four on quality measures, the weaker numbers sit in care outcomes, not in who's on the floor.

The 25 deficiencies on record include one at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and the last inspection was in March 2026. For a 36-bed nonprofit, the pattern is steady care with a stable workforce, though that single harm-level finding deserves a direct question about what happened and what changed.

Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels, which is a real gap but a modest one. Staff turnover sits at 25%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The health inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, none involving harm, jeopardy, or abuse, and the most recent inspection was in August 2025. County-owned and small at 65 beds, it pairs strong quality measure scores with a solid but not flawless inspection history.

Hubbard Hill Estates runs a tight ship on the numbers that matter most. Nurse staffing sits at 4.27 hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, and weekend coverage stays reasonably close to weekday levels even though it dips roughly 14%. Staff turnover of 31.5% is well below the national 45.8%, which suggests people stick around, a good sign for residents who value consistent caregivers. The inspection record backs that up: five total deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent state visit in December 2025. For a 66-bed nonprofit in Elkhart, that combination of low turnover, solid staffing, and a clean complaint history is what a family should be looking for.

Friendship Haven runs 155 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.41 hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average of 3.86. That cushion shows up in turnover too: 40.1% annually against a national 45.8%, and weekend coverage only dips about 6% below weekdays, so care doesn't fall off a cliff on Saturdays. The tradeoff is inspection history. The current record carries 16 deficiencies, five of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the last survey was in July 2025, so it's recent. Quality measures score well, and the staffing numbers are the real story here, steady hands, adequate hours, and a survey record that's worth asking about directly.
