Pruitthealth-Walterboro runs 132 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.59 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average. Weekends are the real soft spot: staffing drops about 23% below what the home runs on weekdays, so a Saturday or Sunday shift has noticeably fewer hands than a Tuesday. Turnover is the bright spot at 29.4%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests less churn in who's actually at the bedside. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse; the most recent inspection was January 28, 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measures score better than staffing does.

Patewood Post Acute runs 120 beds in Greenville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.92 hours per resident day, barely above the 3.86 national average. That thin margin matters more on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 17% below the home's own weekday levels. Staff turnover lands at 43.9%, which is actually a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, so retention isn't the problem here. The current record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in April 2025. Quality measures score well; the health inspection side is more middling.

White Oak Manor-York runs a tight ship on inspections, earning the top federal rating there, with its most recent survey completed in May 2025 and six total deficiencies on record, two of which rose to the harm level, though none involved abuse. Nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, roughly 2% under the national figure, and weekends dip about 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, a gap worth asking about directly. Staff turnover of 35.9% actually beats the national 45.8%, which matters for consistency of care. For-profit corporate ownership and a mid-range quality measure score round out a home that looks solid on paper but leans on fewer hands than average.

Life Care Center Of Charleston runs 148 certified beds in North Charleston, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.54 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8 percent under the national average, with weekends dipping about 12 percent below its own weekdays. Turnover sits at 42.7 percent, a touch better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the concern isn't retention so much as how thin the floor gets on Saturdays and Sundays. The current inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus $24,247 in fines across two penalties. Clinical quality measures score well, but the January 2026 inspection history and below-average daily staffing carry more weight than that.

White Oak Manor in Spartanburg runs 60 beds under corporate ownership, and the direct-care hours are genuinely above average, about 10% more nurse time per resident than the typical American nursing home. Turnover is the trouble spot: 52.7% of staff leave each year, well past the national 45.8%, and weekend coverage drops roughly 12% below the home's own weekday level. Seven deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The last inspection was March 2026, and CMS gives four stars for both health inspections and staffing, three for quality measures. Strong daily hours, real churn underneath.

White Oak Manor in Rock Hill runs 136 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national line, 3.84 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 average. Weekends are where that gets thin, dropping roughly 13% below the home's own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover is the bright spot: 36.4% against a national 45.8%, meaning caregivers tend to stick around longer here than at the typical home. Nine deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a single $7,446 fine. The last inspection was May 2026.

Nhc Healthcare - Bluffton runs on thinner staffing than most homes nationally, 3.44 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 average, and weekends drop about 14% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 44.1%, roughly in line with the national figure, so the workforce is fairly stable even if the floor is leaner. Inspections are a real strength: four stars, 10 deficiencies on record with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The most recent inspection was January 30, 2026, so the picture is current. For-profit corporate ownership, 120 beds. Families weighing this one should look hardest at weekend coverage and ask how the abuse citation was resolved.

Palmetto Patriots runs a state-owned home in Gaffney with 52 beds and nurse staffing at 5.56 hours per resident day, roughly 44% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. The current inspection record shows zero deficiencies, none at the harm level, and no abuse citations, though nine fines totaling $30,147 appear on the books from earlier. Its last inspection was April 2026, so the record is recent. State ownership tends to mean steadier funding and public accountability, and the staffing number is the real story here.

Veteran Village runs well above the national average for nurse staffing, 5.61 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, roughly 45% more hands-on time, though weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level. The inspection record is mixed: six deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with twelve fines totaling $47,631. State government ownership and a February 2026 inspection give you recent, current information to work from. The staffing number is genuinely strong; the harm-level and abuse findings on the current record are the parts worth asking about directly before you decide.

Rock Hill Post Acute Care Center runs 99 certified beds as a for-profit LLC, and its recent inspection record is genuinely solid: seven deficiencies on file, none rising to harm or jeopardy, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 17% below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover of 47.1% edges past the national figure of 45.8%, which matters most on weekends when fewer familiar hands are on the floor. The most recent inspection was September 2025, so the picture is current.

Richard M Campbell Veterans Nursing Home runs 220 certified beds in Anderson under state government ownership, and its health inspection record is genuinely strong, a 4/5 star rating with the last full inspection in December 2025, so nothing here is stale. The catch is staffing: 3.43 nurse hours per resident day sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 20% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, which is when families tend to visit and notice. Turnover at 42.1% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, but six deficiencies sit on the current record, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse.

Compass Post Acute Rehabilitation in Conway runs about 3.34 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 13 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing drops another 15 percent below its own weekday levels. That thinner weekend coverage is worth asking about directly, especially if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 44.9 percent, essentially matching the national rate, so staffing stability isn't the standout problem here, raw hours are. The inspection record is cleaner than most: three deficiencies on file, none involving harm or abuse, with the most recent survey in April 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing is the weakest of the three federal ratings.

Musc Health Chester Nursing Center runs on a nonprofit model with 80 certified beds, and its nurse staffing comes in at 4.22 hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 31.5%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people tend to stay. The current record shows 7 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in June 2025. Quality measure scores run lower than the staffing and inspection ratings, so it's worth asking where those gaps show up in daily care.

Manna Post Acute runs 130 beds in Pickens under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.45 hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the genuine bright spot: 22% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. The current record shows 16 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The last inspection was May 2026, so the picture is recent. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspection results are more middle-of-the-road.

Nhc Healthcare - Garden City runs 148 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 39.2% is better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. The current record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with one fine totaling $4,147. A recent inspection and 4/5 ratings on both health inspections and quality measures round out a record that's solid on safety and weaker on daily staffing depth.

Nhc Healthcare - Clinton runs on thinner staffing than most homes its size. At 3.54 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage, so the days families visit most are the days with the least help on hand. Staff turnover of 54.2% is nearly nine points above the national figure, which means aides and nurses cycle through faster than residents can get used to them. The record itself is cleaner: five deficiencies, none causing harm, none tied to abuse, and a recent inspection. Quality scores look strong, but those depend on the people who keep leaving.

Woodruff Manor runs on thin nursing coverage, 3.32 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get even leaner, dipping about 8% below the home's own weekday numbers. The inspection record is where the real concern sits: 14 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, and $45,240 in fines across four penalties. Turnover at 40.6% is somewhat better than the 45.8% national figure, and the quality and staffing ratings both land at 4 out of 5. But a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating and that many harm-level findings carry weight a higher quality score can't offset.

Nhc Healthcare - Greenville runs 132 beds in Greer under for-profit, limited-liability ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean: three deficiencies on file, none causing harm or jeopardy, none abuse-related, with a survey completed in September 2025. Staffing is where the picture narrows. At 3.77 nurse hours per resident day, it sits slightly under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage, so a Saturday shift looks different from a Tuesday. Annual turnover of 41.7% is better than the national figure, meaning the crew is comparatively stable. The tradeoff is thinner daily coverage rather than regulatory trouble.

Morrell Nursing Center sits right at the national average for total nurse staffing, 3.87 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationwide, though weekends run about 17% thinner than weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover is 27%, well below the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The 154-bed for-profit home holds a 4/5 inspection rating with five deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was recent. The weaker spot is the 2/5 quality measure rating, which reflects resident-level clinical data rather than the hands-on care picture.

Nhc Healthcare - Mauldin runs 180 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits slightly under the national average, 3.73 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. That gap is small, but weekends tell a bigger story: coverage drops about 16% below the home's own weekday levels, which is when problems tend to surface. Turnover lands at 42.9%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows eight deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with one fine of $7,313. The most recent inspection was March 2025, so the picture is current. State surveyors rated health inspections 2 out of 5, lower than the staffing and quality scores.
