Villa Marin sits in San Rafael with just 31 certified beds and nonprofit ownership, and the staffing number is the first thing that stands out: 7.15 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 85% above the national average. That's an unusual amount of hands-on care, though weekend coverage drops about 21% below its own weekday level, so the daily experience may depend on when you visit. The record isn't spotless, 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a single $7,443 fine. The last inspection was November 2025, so the picture is current. Strong quality measures and recent oversight offset a fair amount of that history.

Mountains Community Hospital's skilled nursing unit runs on a hospital district's license with just 19 certified beds, and its inspection record is clean where it counts: ten deficiencies on file, none at the harm level, none tied to abuse, and a survey completed in June 2025. The staffing picture cuts against expectations, though. Reported nurse hours come to 7.12 per resident day, roughly 84 percent above the national figure, yet CMS scores staffing 1 out of 5 and weekend coverage drops about 10 percent below weekdays. Turnover sits at 37.5 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national rate. Quality measures land mid-range at 3 out of 5.

Devonshire Oaks runs about 4.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, which is the kind of staffing number that matters most on evenings and weekends. Weekend coverage does dip about 16% below its own weekday level, so the weekday-to-weekend gap is real even if the floor stays relatively high. The home has 28 deficiencies on its current record, including one at the harm level, with no abuse citations. Its last inspection was January 2025, so the picture is fairly current. The ownership is corporate for-profit. Nothing here reads as a red flag on staffing or quality measures; the deficiency count is the piece worth asking about directly.

Arbol Healthcare Center of Santa Rosa runs 45 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.62 hours per resident day, roughly 46% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover is 50%, a bit higher than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows 36 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. A 4/5 health inspection rating, a 5/5 quality measure rating, and a recent November 2025 inspection round out the picture, strong staffing and quality numbers, with the abuse citation and turnover worth asking about directly.

Cleburne County Nursing Home runs on county government ownership, and the numbers show it. Nurse staffing sits at 4.32 hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend staffing drops about 23% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record carries just 2 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though 1 is abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Staff turnover is 42.2%, better than the national 45.8% but still meaning nearly half the workforce turns over. The last inspection was March 2022, so the record you're reading is nearly three years old.

Wiregrass Rehabilitation Center & Nursing Home is county-owned, which is unusual in Alabama and tends to mean steadier budgets than the for-profit chains. Its 3.86 nurse hours per resident day sits right at the national average, though weekends run about 15 percent lighter than weekdays, so ask how that gap gets covered. Staff turnover is 33.8 percent against a national 45.8, lower, which usually means more familiar faces. Ten deficiencies are on record, none at harm level, none abuse-related, and the last full inspection was March 2022, so the picture is a few years old. The quality and staffing stars look solid; the three-star inspection rating is what holds it back.

Denali Center runs 5.36 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 39 percent above the national average, and weekends dip about 13 percent below its own weekday level, a real drop, though the floor stays higher than most places. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 30 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a $10,358 fine and a January 2026 inspection date. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, which suggests the day-to-day clinical care tracks well even where the survey history doesn't.

Hillcrest Home runs on 5.13 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more staffing than the national average, and its weekend coverage only slips about 16% below weekday levels, a gap that's smaller than what many homes show. The inspection record backs that up: six deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a survey completed in May 2025. Staff turnover sits at 42.8%, slightly better than the national 45.8%. For a 103-bed nonprofit in Harrison, the numbers point to a home that stays adequately covered and keeps its regulatory problems minor.

Randolph County Nursing Home runs on county tax money rather than a corporate chain, and the numbers back up the difference. Nurse staffing sits at 4.02 hours per resident day, roughly 4% above the national average, with turnover at 40.1% against a national 45.8%, a steadier workforce than most. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 21% below its own weekday level, so a Saturday shift won't look like a Tuesday. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was April 2025. Pocahontas families get a county-run home with strong clinical marks and a predictable weekend dip.

Good Samaritan Rehab And Care Center in Stockton runs on 4.28 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 23.7% is about half the national rate, a real advantage in a field where aides cycling out the door is the norm. The catch is inspections: 45 deficiencies on the current record, and a two-star health inspection rating, even though none of those rose to harm or jeopardy and there's no abuse history. Weekend staffing also drops about 15% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't evenly spread. Ownership is for-profit corporate, and the last inspection was February 2025. Strong staffing, weak survey history.

Springs At 3030 Park runs a small operation, 23 certified beds, and staffs it heavily: 5.91 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average, though weekends drop about 15% below its own weekday coverage. Inspectors visited in January 2026 and scored the home at the top of CMS's health inspection and quality measure scales, but its record isn't clean: 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus a single fine of $8,018. For-profit, limited liability ownership. The staffing and recent inspection results are the strength here; the deficiency history is what a family should ask about directly.

Apostolic Christian Home runs on unusually steady ground. Its nurse staffing sits a hair above the national average, and while weekends get quieter, about 16% below its own weekday coverage, the bigger story is retention: 21.2% turnover against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses tend to stay, so residents see familiar faces. The inspection record backs that up. Fifteen deficiencies on file, but none at the harm level and nothing abuse-related, with the most recent state visit in April 2026. For a 60-bed church-affiliated nonprofit in Woodford County, the numbers show a home that's compliant and consistent rather than stretched thin.

Lutheran Retirement Home is a small church-affiliated nonprofit in Northwood, and its staffing is genuinely strong, 4.57 nurse hours per resident day, about 18 percent above the national average, with turnover at 41.9 percent, better than the 45.8 percent norm. Weekends run roughly 17 percent leaner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even. The trouble sits on the inspection side: 13 deficiencies on the current record, four of them at the harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, plus one fine of $24,922. That split, high staffing and quality marks alongside serious inspection findings, is worth asking the administrator about directly, particularly what changed after the February 2026 survey.

Eastridge runs a tight ship on staffing hours, 5.34 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its quality measure score is perfect. But the inspection record tells a harder story: 12 deficiencies logged, two of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, and a health inspection score of 1 out of 5. A $12,798 fine and a 53.8% turnover rate, above the national average, suggest the people providing that care don't stay long. Weekend coverage drops about 17% below weekday levels. With 28 beds and nonprofit ownership, this is a small home where the clinical numbers look strong but the oversight record raises real questions worth asking on a visit.

The Plaza Health Services at Santa Marta runs a nonprofit home in Olathe with 50 certified beds and nurse staffing at 5.31 hours per resident day, roughly 37 percent above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 7 percent below its own weekday level, so the strong overall number isn't perfectly even across the week. The inspection history carries 20 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, though none involve abuse, and the most recent inspection was May 2026. The quality measure rating comes in at the top of the scale, while staffing lands mid-range and health inspections sit just above it.

Caritas Center is a small nonprofit home in Wichita, just 22 certified beds, and its nursing hours run about 58% above the national average, with turnover at 14.3% against a national 45.8%. That combination is rare: plenty of homes staff up, but few keep the same people. Weekend coverage dips roughly 18% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. The inspection record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last survey was in March 2026. Quality measures sit in the middle of the pack.

Baton Rouge General Medical Center's skilled nursing unit runs on 5.89 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 53% more than the national average of 3.86, and it holds that pace on weekends, dropping only about 1% below weekday levels. That consistency matters, because weekend coverage is where a lot of homes quietly thin out. The inspection record is clean where it counts: 7 deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a 5/5 health inspection rating and the most recent survey dated April 2026. As a nonprofit corporation, it isn't answering to shareholders. Two certified beds means this is a small unit inside a hospital, so ask how that arrangement works if you need long-term placement rather than a short rehab stay.

Oceana County Medical Care Facility runs on 6.05 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 57 percent more than the national average of 3.86, and its staffing star rating reflects that. Weekend coverage dips about 16 percent below its own weekday level, worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays, but turnover sits at 25.9 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The inspection record is clean where it matters most: five deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the last survey was in July 2025. County-owned and recently inspected, with quality measures scoring mid-range, this is a home whose strengths rest on consistent staffing and a clean regulatory record rather than standout clinical metrics.

Huron County Medical Care Facility runs on public money and, by the numbers, spends it well. Nurse staffing sits at 5.57 hours per resident day, roughly 44% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips only about 17% below weekday levels, which is a modest drop for a county home. The 36.1% turnover rate is lower than the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care tend to stick around. Inspectors logged 23 deficiencies but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none involving abuse, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. For a family weighing options, that combination of staffing depth and a clean harm record is the part worth paying attention to.

Martha T Berry Mcf runs on county money, and the numbers show a home that mostly holds up. Nurse staffing sits at 5.05 hours per resident day, roughly a third above the national average, with turnover at 44.5%, essentially level with the national rate. Weekends drop about 21% below weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The record isn't clean: 17 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and two tied to abuse. A 4/5 inspection rating and an April 2026 survey mean oversight has been recent. For a 217-bed county home, the staffing is the strongest signal here.
