Staff turnover

Staffing here runs about 5.1 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a third above the national average, and that holds up on weekends too, weekend coverage dips only about 10% from weekday levels, which is smaller than what many homes show. Annual turnover sits at 26.1% against a national average near 46%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The inspection record is thin in the best way: one deficiency total, none involving harm or abuse, from a visit dated February 2026. Put the staffing, retention, and inspection history together and you get a home that looks steady rather than lucky.

Willowbrooke Court runs on 4.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only modestly below its own weekday level, a gap far smaller than what many homes show. Staff turnover sits at 29.4% against a national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents' routines and catch changes early. The current record holds three deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection completed in July 2025. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders. Every one of those signals points the same direction, which is rare, homes often look strong in one area and thin in another.

Nurse staffing at Gino J Merli Veterans Center runs 5.40 hours per resident day, roughly 40% above the national average, and the state-run home in Scranton holds a 30.1% turnover rate against a national 45.8%. Those numbers matter because consistent hands on deck tend to show up in outcomes. The trade-offs sit elsewhere: weekend staffing drops about 18% below its own weekday level, and the current inspection record carries six deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with the last inspection dated April 2026. So the picture is a well-staffed, low-turnover home with real quality marks and a handful of serious findings the family should ask about directly.

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.

Continuing Care at Maris Grove runs about five nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 29% above the national average, and weekend staffing dips only slightly below its weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 33.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure. Those are real strengths. What pulls the record down is the inspection history: 15 deficiencies on file, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two fines totaling $22,737. The most recent inspection was in February 2026, so the picture is current. A nonprofit with strong staffing and low turnover can still carry a flawed survey record, and here that tension is the whole story.

Willowcrest runs on 6.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 60% above the national average of 3.86, a staffing level most homes never approach. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday figure, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 36.2%, better than the 45.8% national rate, which suggests aides tend to stay. The inspection record shows nine deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the last survey was in January 2026. With 44 beds under nonprofit ownership, this is a small, well-staffed home whose numbers hold up on their own.

Sarah A Todd Memorial Home runs on 4.51 nurse hours per resident day, about 17 percent more than the national average, and its weekend staffing only dips roughly 8 percent below weekday levels. That matters, because weekend coverage is where a lot of homes quietly thin out. Staff turnover sits at 27.5 percent against a national average near 46 percent, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in January 2026. This is a nonprofit corporation with 117 certified beds, and the numbers point to steady, well-staffed care rather than anything flashy.

Little Flower Manor runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, 4.17 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its weekend coverage dips only slightly below its own weekday level, which is a detail worth noticing because weekend gaps are where a lot of facilities quietly slip. That staffing holds up on inspection too: five deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey completed in December 2025. Annual turnover sits at 30.8% while the national figure is 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. As a nonprofit with 127 certified beds, it's keeping both its clinical measures and its staffing marks at the top of CMS's scale.

Chapel Pointe At Carlisle runs on a church-affiliated nonprofit model with 59 certified beds, and the staffing numbers tell the real story here. At 5.33 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 38% above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips from weekday levels. Annual turnover of 14.5% is far below the national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents and catch problems early. The inspection record backs that up: two deficiencies total, none involving harm or abuse, with the most recent survey in February 2026. For families weighing options in Cumberland County, that combination of low turnover and a clean recent inspection is worth more than any single rating.

Misericordia runs on a nonprofit model with 50 beds in York, and the numbers mostly hold up. Nurse staffing sits at 4.59 hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only about 10 percent below its own weekday levels, which is a smaller drop than many homes show. Staff turnover is 31.1 percent against a national average near 46 percent, so caregivers are staying longer than is typical. The inspection record is clean where it matters: five deficiencies total, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was September 2025. Quality and staffing measures both rate at the top of CMS's scale.

Richfield Healthcare runs 40 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the nurse staffing number is the first thing worth noting: 4.24 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 14% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets covered. Staff turnover sits at 31.1%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. The 27 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was January 22, 2026. Quality and staffing both draw five stars from CMS; health inspection draws three.

The home's current record shows 15 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with its last inspection in August 2025. Staffing and quality measures both rate 5 out of 5 from CMS, and the health inspection rating is 4. That combination, low turnover, no serious deficiencies, and staffing well above average, is the substance behind the high marks.

Masonic Village at Elizabethtown runs 434 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the numbers behind its record are unusually steady. Nurse staffing sits at 4.59 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, and annual turnover of 27.5% is well below the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents. Weekend staffing does dip about 15% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is recent, January 2026, with a 5/5 health inspection rating and only 5 deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level. Two are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly.

Staff turnover sits at 28.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure.

The most recent inspection was May 9, 2025. Strong staffing and quality scores, weaker inspection history, that's the tradeoff to weigh if you're considering this home.
