Caribou Rehab And Nursing Center runs 72 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.67 hours per resident day, roughly 21% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real margin, though weekend coverage dips about 15% below its own weekday levels, so the cushion isn't uniform across the week. The inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations; the most recent inspection was July 2025. CMS rates quality measures 4 out of 5 and staffing 3 out of 5, while health inspections come in at 3. Families weighing this one should ask specifically how the weekend shifts are covered and what changed after that harm-level finding.

Hidden Waters runs 267 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership in Clinton, and its numbers pull in two directions. The staffing picture is genuinely mixed: 3.53 nurse hours per resident day sits about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 16% lighter than weekdays, but turnover is 26.6%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. What drags the record down is the inspection side: 70 deficiencies on file, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $62,083, with the most recent inspection dated December 12, 2025. A single star on health inspections against five stars on quality measures is a wide gap worth asking about directly.

Knollwood Nursing Center, a nonprofit home with 82 certified beds in Worcester, runs nurse staffing at 4.27 hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average of 3.86. That's real coverage, though weekends drop roughly 9% below weekday levels, so families should ask who's actually on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in December 2025. That's a clean record on the serious stuff. Staffing earns 3 out of 5 stars from CMS, below its 4-star inspection and quality scores, which suggests the hours are decent but not exceptional for the resident needs here.

Pierz Villa runs a 45-bed for-profit home in Morrison County, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 4.30 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 14% below the home's own weekday level. Inspections look solid, the most recent was in January 2026, with seven deficiencies on record and none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related. That combination of decent weekday staffing, a clean harm record, and a recent survey is what keeps this one in reasonable territory despite average marks on quality measures and staffing consistency.

Fairview Care Center in Dodge Center is county-owned and small, 46 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national average, 3.87 hours per resident day, though weekends run roughly 11% lighter than weekdays. The staffing and quality measure ratings both land at 4 out of 5, and the last inspection was recent, January 14, 2026. What pulls the picture down is the inspection record: 26 deficiencies currently on file, one of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy to a resident, and four tied to abuse. That combination, solid day-to-day care numbers sitting alongside a heavy survey history, is the whole story here, and it's worth asking the administrator directly how those abuse-related findings were resolved.

Annandale Care Center runs on more nursing time than most homes in the country, about 4.41 hours per resident per day against a national average near 3.86. Weekend coverage thins out, though, landing roughly 16 percent under its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 47.5 percent, slightly worse than the 45.8 percent national figure. The inspection record is strong, with a five-star health inspection rating and a recent survey in August 2025, but five deficiencies are on file and one of them rose to the level of actual harm. No abuse citations appear. For a small 42-bed nonprofit, the care hours are the real selling point; the harm-level deficiency and weekend dip are what to ask about directly.

Halstad Living Center runs on a nonprofit model with 44 certified beds, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, six deficiencies on the books, none rising to harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse. The recent survey date means that picture is current, not stale. Staffing tells a more mixed story: 3.66 nurse hours per resident day sits about 5% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 23% lighter than weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Turnover at 38.6% beats the 45.8% national figure, so the people who are there tend to stay. A solid record overall, with the weekend coverage gap as the main thing to press on.

Neshoba County Nursing Home runs on a county government budget, and the staffing numbers reflect real investment: 4.48 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, with a 5-out-of-5 staffing rating. But weekend coverage drops roughly 16% below weekday levels, and the inspection record is messier, 23 deficiencies currently on file, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $15,945 fine. Staff turnover sits at 45.5%, essentially matching the national rate. The last inspection was November 2025. Strong floor staffing, a thin weekend margin, and a deficiency list worth asking about directly.

Baptist Nursing Home-Calhoun runs a nonprofit home with 120 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are genuinely good: 5.05 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 31% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 19% below its own weekday level, but turnover sits at 31.8% against a national 45.8%, so aides tend to stay. The problem is everything else. Twenty-two deficiencies sit on the current record, six of them at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, all from an inspection dated May 2025. Plenty of hands on deck, then, but the care those hands deliver has repeatedly fallen short in ways that put residents at real risk.

Northgate Unit of Lakeview Christian Home runs on staffing numbers that sit just under the national mark, 3.81 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, so families should know the difference is small on paper but shows up on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 18% below the home's own weekday level. The inspection record is the stronger story: 30 deficiencies on file, none reaching harm or jeopardy, with one tied to abuse, and the most recent state visit came in April 2025. Annual turnover at 50% runs above the 45.8% national average, meaning a good share of the people caring for your relative will be new each year. Nonprofit ownership, and 4/5 stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

Iroquois Nursing Home runs on thinner staffing than most places, 3.40 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 17% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 43.9%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so the workforce is comparatively stable even if it's stretched. The inspection record is where this home looks strongest: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, a clean August 2024 survey, and 13 deficiencies with none rising to harm or jeopardy. One abuse-related citation is on the books, which is worth asking about directly. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, so residents' clinical outcomes track well despite the lighter staffing.

Slovene Home For The Aged is a 104-bed nonprofit in Cleveland, and the numbers pull in different directions. On the clinical side, residents' quality measures rate well above average, and the 25 deficiencies on record include nothing flagged at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, a record that could be considerably worse. The staffing picture is the problem: CMS gives it one star, meaning nurse coverage sits well below what most homes in Ohio report. With the last inspection in September 2024, the survey history is recent. If you're weighing this one, ask directly how many nurses are on the floor on evenings and weekends, because that's where the gap shows up.

Rose City Nursing And Rehabilitation runs 5.30 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 37% above the national average of 3.86, a real cushion that shows up in its four-star staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels, which is common but worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. The tradeoff sits on the inspection side: 32 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level, though none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was February 2025. This is a for-profit LLC with 55 beds. Strong staffing, a thinner inspection history, worth weighing against what your relative actually needs.

Uintah Health Care Special Service District runs on county money, and it shows in the staffing numbers: 6.49 nurse hours per resident per day, well above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only slightly from weekdays, so families visiting on Saturdays should still find adequate staff. The tradeoff sits in the inspection record. Eight deficiencies, including one tied to abuse and one serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, plus a $28,038 fine. That combination drags down an otherwise solid profile, four stars each for staffing and quality measures, three for health inspections, with the most recent state visit in September 2025. Good care hours don't erase a harm-level finding. Ask what changed since.

Summit Square runs 18 certified beds, and the nurse staffing number is genuinely high, 7.44 hours per resident day, roughly double the national average. But that average hides a dip: weekends run about 19% lighter than weekdays, so coverage depends on when you visit. Turnover sits at 47.1%, slightly above the national rate, which means the people providing that care keep changing. The inspection record is where the picture darkens: 27 deficiencies on file, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse, and a $50,021 fine. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so it's current. A nonprofit operator with strong staffing marks and a troubled compliance history.

Josephine Caring Community runs a church-affiliated nonprofit home with 160 beds in Stanwood, and the staffing numbers are genuinely strong, 4.69 nurse hours per resident day, about a fifth above the national average, with turnover at 30.4% against a national 45.8%. That retention matters more than the raw hours, since familiar aides tend to catch changes in a resident's condition earlier. The caution is in the inspection record: 31 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in September 2025. Weekend staffing also drops roughly 19% below its own weekday coverage, which is worth asking about directly, who is on the floor on a Saturday night, and how many.

Mercy Retirement & Care Center runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, 4.68 per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That staffing edge is real, though it thins out on weekends, dropping about 11% below the home's own weekday level. The inspection record is where things get more complicated: 29 deficiencies on file, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, plus one fine of $16,675. Inspectors were last in the building in February 2025. For a 59-bed nonprofit in Oakland, the care hours are a genuine strength; the deficiency history is what a family should ask about directly.

The Mission at Blue Skies of Texas East runs 4.87 nurse hours per resident day, about 26 percent above the national average, which is real coverage. But weekends drop roughly 18 percent below its own weekday level, and 57.6 percent of staff left last year against a national 45.8 percent, so the people providing that care keep changing. The current record shows 25 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a $17,345 fine and an inspection in July 2025. Nonprofit ownership and a 4-star inspection rating suggest decent systems, but the turnover and weekend gaps tell you to ask who's actually on the floor on a Sunday.

Archstone runs leaner than the typical U.S. nursing home, 3.52 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday coverage. The trade-off shows up in its staffing star, but the record is cleaner than most: 12 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, nothing abuse-related, and a January 2026 inspection that's still recent. Turnover is the standout number, 18.4% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses your family would see day to day are far more likely to still be there next year. A for-profit partnership in Chandler with strong quality marks and a stable workforce, though you'll want to ask how weekend coverage actually feels on the floor.

Cave City Nursing Home runs 4.99 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 29% above the national average of 3.86, and that staffing shows up where it counts: a clean health inspection record with 11 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, from a visit in July 2025. The nonprofit corporate owner doesn't have to answer to shareholders, which tends to show up in staffing and inspection outcomes alike. The catch is weekends, when hours drop about 22% below the home's own weekday level, a resident's Saturday care may look thinner than a Tuesday's. If your family member needs consistent help with daily tasks, ask how weekend coverage is actually scheduled.
