Southwind At Spearville runs on an unusually steady crew for a nursing home its size. Nurse staffing sits near 4.78 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekday levels, a gap that typically signals a home isn't scrambling to fill shifts. Annual turnover of 10% is strikingly low next to the national 45.8%, which matters more than any single inspection score, since aides who stay tend to know residents' routines. The tradeoff: 13 deficiencies on the current record, including one abuse-related finding, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. State inspectors last visited in January 2026, so the picture is current.

Dooley Center runs 44 certified beds in Atchison under nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.02 hours per resident day, roughly 4% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday levels, which is common but still worth knowing if you're planning visits or worrying about Saturday care. Annual turnover is 33.3%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Ten deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in October 2025.

Baptist Health Hardin runs just 15 certified beds, which is tiny for a nursing home, and the staffing reflects that kind of focus: 8.02 nurse hours per resident day, more than double the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 4% below weekdays, so care doesn't thin out much on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record carries 6 deficiencies with none at the harm level, though 2 are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Staff turnover at 42.3% sits slightly below the national 45.8%. A nonprofit corporation operates it, and its most recent inspection was in December 2025.

Western Md Hospital Center runs on state government money and a nurse staffing level of 7.40 hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. That staffing holds up on weekends better than most places, dipping only about 9% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover of 19.4% is less than half the national rate of 45.8%. What pulls it back to a middling grade is the inspection record: 37 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $24,060. A December 2025 inspection means the picture is current; the quality and staffing stars are top marks, but the compliance history is what a family needs to weigh.

Community Medical Center Tcu runs 25 certified beds in Toms River under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers stand out: 6.93 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 79% above the national average, with weekend coverage holding within about 1% of weekdays. That steadiness matters, because weekend gaps are where a lot of homes quietly slip. Turnover sits at 9.1% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people caring for residents largely stay put. Five deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was July 2, 2025. Five stars for health inspections and staffing, four for quality measures. Small homes can be uneven. This one's numbers aren't.

Mohun Health Care Center runs on unusually deep nurse coverage: 5.48 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip only about 8% below its own weekday level, so care doesn't thin out much when families visit. Staff turnover sits at 21.4% versus 45.8% nationally, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. Its 12 deficiencies include none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in March 2026. As a nonprofit with 72 beds, it isn't chasing volume, the numbers point to a home that invests in the people doing the daily work.

Valley View Haven runs on unusually steady staffing for a nursing home: about 4.83 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, and its 20.8% turnover is less than half the typical 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits then. The 20 deficiencies on record include one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was March 2026. As a nonprofit with 155 beds, it doesn't answer to shareholders, which tends to show up in numbers like these.

Glen At Willow Valley runs 262 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average. Just as telling, annual turnover sits at 28.9% against a national average of 45.8%, that stability matters more than any single inspection result, because consistent staff know the residents. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday afternoon. The current record shows one deficiency, none at harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection dated December 2025. Medicare's own ratings land at five stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

Oakview Terrace runs on 4.44 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 15% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 23.4%, about half the national rate of 45.8%. That kind of retention matters more than any single inspection score, because consistent caregivers notice changes in residents sooner. The trade-off shows up in the inspection history: 11 deficiencies on record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $10,839 fine. Weekend staffing also dips about 9% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. The most recent state visit was June 26, 2025, so the picture is current. Strong staffing and quality numbers, with real inspection problems worth asking about directly.

Nurse staffing here runs about 8.5 hours per resident day, more than double the national average, and it holds up on weekends rather than collapsing the way it does at many homes. Staff turnover sits at 34%, below the 45.8% national figure, and the single deficiency on the current record involves no harm or jeopardy to residents, with nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was in August 2025, so the record is recent. This is a 23-bed nonprofit unit, small enough that staffing ratios matter more than they would in a larger building, and the numbers suggest they're being kept up.

Columbia Health Care Center in Wyocena is county-owned, and the numbers back up what that stability tends to buy. Nurses provide about 4.71 hours of care per resident each day, roughly 22 percent more than the national average, and staff turnover sits at 21.3 percent against a national figure near 46 percent, so the people caring for your relative are likely to still be there next year. Weekend coverage dips only slightly below weekday levels, which matters because that's where shortfalls usually hide. One deficiency on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, and an inspection from April 2026.
