Falcons Landing sits in Potomac Falls with 60 certified beds and a nonprofit owner, and the numbers behind its record are steady rather than flashy. Nurse staffing runs 4.55 hours per resident day, about 18% above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekday levels, a gap that trips up plenty of homes. Staff turnover is 39%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for residents who value seeing the same faces. The health inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in May 2023. Four and five stars across inspections, quality measures, and staffing tell a consistent story.

King's Grant Lacy Health Center runs on a nonprofit model with 32 certified beds, and the staffing numbers stand out: 5.00 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 30% above the national average of 3.86. That level of coverage matters most on weekends, and while weekend staffing does dip about 12% below its own weekday level, it stays well above what most homes provide. Staff turnover is 30.6%, noticeably lower than the 45.8% national average, experienced caregivers tend to know residents better. The inspection record is clean: two total deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the last inspection in September 2023. Quality measures rate a middle 3 out of 5, the one area with room to improve.

Our Lady of Perpetual Help is a 30-bed nonprofit home in Virginia Beach, and the staffing numbers are the story here. At 4.15 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 7% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 32.1% sits well below the 45.8% national rate, that kind of retention matters in a building this small, where one departure is felt. Weekend staffing dips about 6% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if you're planning visits. The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in June 2025. Worth reading those three closely before deciding.

The tradeoff is in the inspection record: 11 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $22,081 fine.

This is a nonprofit corporation with 122 certified beds in Lynden, and the staffing and quality scores are what carry the grade.

Sunshine Health & Rehab runs on a small 37-bed footprint in Spokane, and the nurse staffing here sits well above what most homes provide, nearly 5 hours per resident day against a national average closer to 3.9. Weekends do thin out by about 19% compared to weekdays, so ask how coverage looks on a Saturday. The inspection record carries 32 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent survey was in January 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measures score at the top of CMS's scale, which is notable given that volume of citations.

Wesley Homes Des Moines Health Center runs on noticeably more nursing hours than most homes, 4.79 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 30.8% compared to 45.8% nationally. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The inspection record shows 52 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. A February 2026 inspection means the record is recent, and as a church-affiliated nonprofit, there's no ownership chain pulling profits out. The quality measures come in strong.

Door County Memorial Hospital SNF runs 4.78 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, and that staffing depth shows up in its federal ratings. Weekend coverage dips only slightly, about 4 percent below weekdays, so care doesn't thin out much when families visit. The tradeoff is turnover: 63.9 percent of staff leave annually, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, which matters for residents who value seeing the same faces. Nine deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The last inspection was April 2026, so the picture is recent.

Oakridge Gardens runs a for-profit operation in Menasha with 106 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits well above average, 5.46 hours per resident day against a national figure of 3.86. That margin matters, though weekends dip about 14% below what the home staffs during the week, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Staff turnover lands at 50.9%, a bit higher than the 45.8% national rate, which suggests some churn even with the strong hours. Inspectors logged 21 deficiencies on the current record, three tied to abuse, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent visit was May 2025. The limited liability ownership structure means the company behind the building, not a public entity, holds the license.

Cedar Lake runs on 5.14 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a third more than the national average, and it holds a five-star CMS staffing rating because of it. Weekend coverage dips about 13% below the home's own weekday levels, which is common but worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 37%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is recent, April 2026, with 12 deficiencies and none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related and deserve a direct question.

Nurse staffing here runs about 4.48 hours per resident per day, roughly 16 percent above the national average, though weekends drop about 12 percent below the home's own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family tends to visit Saturday or Sunday. Staff turnover sits at 54.2 percent against a national average of 45.8 percent, which is high even for this industry, and that churn matters more at a 37-bed home where residents and aides know each other by name. Inspections tell a steadier story: five deficiencies on record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in August 2025. Church-affiliated nonprofit ownership rounds out the picture.

Saint Johns On The Lake runs on a church-affiliated nonprofit model with just 27 certified beds, and the staffing numbers stand out: 5.25 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 38.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, though still meaning more than a third of staff leaving annually. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 14 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a June 2025 inspection. Strong staffing and a clean recent survey don't cancel out that history; they sit alongside it.

Lutheran Home in Wauwatosa runs on 4.28 nurse hours per resident per day, about 11% above the national average, and that shows up in its staffing rating. Weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below weekday levels, though, so care can thin out on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 37.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still more than a third of the workforce leaving each year. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with no abuse citations, and the most recent state visit was June 10, 2025. This is a nonprofit with solid staffing and quality marks, but the deficiency history keeps it out of the top tier.

Shady Lane runs on a nonprofit model with about 5.11 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly a third more staffing than the typical American nursing home. That shows up clearly in the government's staffing rating, which sits at the top of the scale, and weekend coverage holds up reasonably well, dipping only about 7% below weekday levels. Staff turnover of 37.7% is better than the national average of 45.8%, though more than a third of the workforce still leaves each year. The tradeoff is a mixed record: four deficiencies on file, one serious enough to involve harm, alongside middle-of-the-road quality measures. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so the picture is current.

Marinuka Manor runs a tight ship on the staffing side. Nurse hours per resident day sit right at the national average, and weekend coverage dips only about 12% below weekdays, a narrow gap by industry standards. More striking: annual turnover is 7.9% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents mostly stay. The inspection record backs that up, with a five-star health inspection rating, nine deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. Quality measures land mid-range at three stars. For a fifty-bed nonprofit in Trempealeau County, the picture is consistent: stable staff, recent inspection, no serious harm findings.

The numbers at Aspirus Care & Rehab-Medford tell a fairly steady story. Nurse staffing runs 5.94 hours per resident per day, roughly 54% above the national average, though weekends dip about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the question is whether that gap shows up when families visit. Staff turnover sits at 41.2%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is clean where it counts: six deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and a five-star health inspection rating with a survey dated April 2026. There is one abuse-related deficiency on record, which is worth asking about directly. Ownership is nonprofit corporate, and the quality measure rating lands at three stars.

Evergreen Health Center runs 5.08 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 31% above the national average of 3.86, that's a real staffing cushion, though weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. The 8 deficiencies on record include one abuse-related finding, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was in March 2025, so the picture is current. Staff turnover sits at 49%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, which means this nonprofit is replacing workers at a slightly faster clip than average despite the generous hours.

Cedar Crest runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership in Janesville, and the staffing numbers stand out: 5.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 41% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 6% below its own weekday level, so care isn't perfectly level across the week, and turnover sits at 41.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still worth asking about. Inspections are recent, and the record shows five deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. That's the tension here: strong staffing and a clean harm record alongside a small cluster of abuse citations a family should ask about directly.

Staff turnover sits at 46.7%, essentially in line with the national average. The record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though five are abuse-related, enough that you'd want to ask directly how those were resolved. The most recent inspection was in March 2026, so the picture is current.

Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so the strong overall number isn't perfectly even across the week. Turnover is 46.4%, essentially level with the national 45.8%. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection on July 31, 2025.

Nurse staffing sits at 4.04 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends run roughly 5% lighter than weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits then. The standout figure is turnover at 12.9%, far below the national 45.8%, which usually means people stay and know the residents. The health inspection record is strong: nine deficiencies total, none causing harm, though one is abuse-related and worth reading in full. Its last inspection was March 2026, so the picture is current.
