Maple Manor Christian Home runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.42 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and that staffing holds up reasonably well on weekends, dipping about 12% below its own weekday level. The nine deficiencies on record include three tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, and the last inspection was recent enough to reflect current conditions. Turnover sits at 44.4%, roughly in line with the national figure. What pulls the quality measure score down to 2 out of 5 is worth asking about directly, since the staffing numbers alone don't explain it.

Thornton Manor is a 40-bed nonprofit home in Lansing, and its strongest asset is staffing. At 3.88 nurse hours per resident day, it sits essentially at the national average of 3.86, and its staff retention is meaningfully better than most: 38.5% turnover against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record shows seven deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection completed in April 2025. Quality measures score lower than staffing and inspections do, which is worth asking about directly.

Clearview Home runs lean on nurse staffing, 3.25 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 16% below. Weekends dip about 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit, though turnover at 43.8% is slightly better than the national 45.8% and suggests the workforce is at least comparatively stable. The inspection record is the stronger side: three deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and a recent July 2025 survey. Two of those three are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Ownership is for-profit partnership.

Happy Siesta runs lean on nursing hours, 3.30 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 8% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters because a 52.5% annual turnover rate means many of the aides and nurses on the floor are still learning the building, and it sits well above the 45.8% national figure. The current inspection record shows six deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse. The last state visit was June 2025, so the picture is recent. Quality measures score well, but staffing hours and staff retention tell a different story than the star ratings alone suggest.

Bethany Lutheran Home has a staffing story worth noting: 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, with a 4-star staffing rating and turnover at 30.4%, well below the national 45.8%. That kind of retention matters. The problem sits elsewhere. Its inspection record shows 43 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, with three fines totaling $46,914. The most recent inspection was October 2025. Quality measures land at 3 out of 5 stars, so day-to-day care indicators are middling. Strong staffing and low turnover don't cancel out a weak inspection history, ask about those harm-level findings and what's changed since.

Sunnycrest Manor is county-owned, and the numbers show a home that's better staffed than most, 4.34 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national figure. Turnover sits at 38.4%, well under the 45.8% national average, which matters for whether your family sees the same faces month to month. The tradeoff shows up in care quality measures, where it scores near the bottom, and in 14 deficiencies on its current record, though none involved actual harm or abuse. Weekend coverage drops about 11% below weekday levels, so ask about Saturday and Sunday staffing specifically. Its last inspection was in March 2026, so the record is recent.

Denver Sunset Home runs 31 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing sits slightly above the national average, 3.97 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. Weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday levels, so ask how that gap gets covered. Annual turnover of 40% is better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters in a small building where residents see the same faces. The current inspection record shows nine deficiencies, none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and the last inspection was recent. The 4/5 health inspection and staffing ratings carry more weight here than the 3/5 on quality measures.

Perry Lutheran Home runs 70 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its staffing sits right at the national average of 3.86 nurse hours per resident day, with weekend coverage dropping roughly 7% below its own weekday levels. Turnover is 49.3%, a bit worse than the 45.8% national figure, so the faces change more often than average. The bigger issue is the inspection record: 22 deficiencies, 8 at harm or jeopardy level, and 4 abuse-related, with one fine of $16,351. A recent inspection date doesn't erase that history. If you're considering this home, ask specifically how those abuse-related findings were resolved and who supervises residents on weekends.

Palo Alto County Hospital runs a small 22-bed unit, and the numbers suggest it's well run. Staff turnover sits at 17.6%, very low next to the 45.8% national figure, which matters for familiarity and continuity in a place this size. The tradeoff is hours: 3.07 nurse staffing hours per resident day is about 21% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 25% below the home's own weekday levels. One deficiency on the current record, none at harm level, no abuse findings, and a recent July 2025 inspection back that up. County-owned and financially steady, it looks like a home that keeps its people, with fewer hands on weekends.

The Cedars in McPherson is a 54-bed nonprofit home where nurses spend more time per resident than most places in the country, about 4.98 hours a day versus a national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 9% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover sits at 64.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so consistent caregiving is the weak spot. Its last inspection came in January 2026, and the record holds 29 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but four tied to abuse. Subtract the inspection strength and the staffing picture gets wobblier than the raw hours suggest.

Laurel Heights runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.10 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stick around, with turnover at 32.1% versus 45.8% nationally. That stability matters, though weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels, so ask how weekends are actually staffed. The inspection record is clean where it counts: five total deficiencies, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in April 2025. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders. The weaker spot is quality measures, which sit mid-range, so ask what those scores reflect.

Beaver Dam Nursing & Rehab Center runs 58 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is the strongest thing it has going. At 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, it sits slightly above the national average of 3.86, and its 39.4% turnover is meaningfully better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere, a real signal that caregivers tend to stay. The trade-off is consistency: weekend staffing drops about 10% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins when families visit most. Eight deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with an inspection dated April 2026. Quality and inspection ratings both land mid-range, so this reads as a steady, adequately staffed home rather than an exceptional one.

Wyatt Manor runs 62 beds in Jonesboro under corporate ownership, and its last inspection was recent, March 2026. The health and quality ratings both come back strong at 4 out of 5, and that recent survey matters more than older history. But look at what's on the record: 11 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to involve actual harm or jeopardy, and two tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $17,275 back that up. Staffing sits at 3.69 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average, and weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 46.3%, essentially matching the national rate. Good inspection marks, real problems underneath.

Pinnacle Health & Rehab At N Berwick runs 64 beds in York County, owned by an individual for profit. Its staffing sits right at the national average, 3.85 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationwide, though weekends fall about 12% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins when families tend to visit. Turnover is 38.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure. On inspections, the record is strong: a 5/5 health inspection rating, 12 deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in January 2026. The weaker spot is quality measures at 2/5.

Wicomico Nursing Home runs on county money, and the staffing reflects that: 3.76 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday coverage. What stands out more is retention, 25.9% turnover against a national 45.8% suggests people stay, which matters for residents who need consistent caregivers. But the inspection record carries real weight: 40 deficiencies, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way, seven tied to abuse, and one fine of $28,343. The most recent inspection was in February 2026. Steady staff, uneven oversight.

Frederick Crossing of Journey runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.30 hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 29.3% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses here tend to stick around. The inspection record is heavier, 81 deficiencies, one at harm level, three tied to abuse, plus a $13,538 fine. The most recent inspection was February 2026. Quality measures look strong; consistent staffing and a clean record don't always come together.

Resorts Of Augsburg runs on a corporate for-profit model with 131 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most, 4.59 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's a real cushion, though weekends drop about 9% below the home's own weekday staffing, and turnover sits at 51.5% versus 45.8% nationally, so the faces change often. The record shows 63 deficiencies, including 6 tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $23,896 and a health inspection star rating of 2 out of 5. The last inspection was December 2025, so the picture is current. Strong daily coverage, a thin margin on weekends, and persistent compliance problems, that's the trade-off here.

Jesmond runs a 57-bed for-profit home in Nahant with staffing that beats the national average by about 16 percent, 4.50 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, and its 25.6 percent turnover is well below the 45.8 percent national figure. Those are real strengths, and they're why the staffing rating sits at 4 out of 5. The record isn't clean, though: 28 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $56,375 fine. A 3/5 on health inspections with a recent August 2025 survey means the state has been in the building. Weekend coverage also dips about 6 percent below weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays.

Presentation Rehab runs a non-profit shop in Boston with 122 beds, and its staffing is the clearest thing it has going: 4.41 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average, with a 5-out-of-5 CMS staffing rating and turnover at 24.6%, roughly half the national rate. Weekends dip about 14% below its own weekday coverage, so care thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. The concerns sit elsewhere. There are 35 deficiencies on the current record, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus a $56,940 fine. The most recent inspection was March 2026. Strong hands on deck, but a record that needs watching.

Notre Dame Long Term Care Center runs on leaner nursing hours than most homes, about 3.44 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get slightly thinner still, roughly 4% below its own weekday coverage. What offsets that is stability: staff turnover sits at 36.3%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The inspection record is clean where it matters most, 16 deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent state visit was in February 2025, so the picture is current. Ownership is nonprofit, which typically means no investor pressure to trim costs. The trade-off is straightforward: fewer hands per resident, but consistent ones.
