Cottesmore Of Life Care

Gig Harbor, WA · Pierce County

CMS 5/5 108 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
4.32 /day
Staff turnover
44%
Serious cites
0

Cottesmore Of Life Care sits in Gig Harbor with 108 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner. The nurse staffing number is the bright spot here: 4.32 hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 18% thinner than weekdays. Turnover lands at 44.3%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. What pulls the record down is the inspection history, 38 deficiencies on the current record, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $29,595. The most recent inspection came on 2026-02-27. Strong staffing and a 5/5 quality measure score, but the deficiency count is what you'd want to ask about directly.

Pleasant Valley Healthcare Center

Point Pleasant, WV · Mason County

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
25%
Serious cites
0

Pleasant Valley Healthcare Center runs 100 certified beds in Point Pleasant under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest thing going for it, a 5/5 health inspection rating and 16 deficiencies on file, none of which rose to harm or jeopardy level. Two abuse-related citations are worth asking about directly. Staffing is where it gets thinner: 3.46 nurse hours per resident day sits about 10% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 17% below the home's own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. Turnover at 24.7% is well below the national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most. Last inspection: May 2026.

Aria At Villa Pines

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
46%
Serious cites
0

Aria At Villa Pines runs 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average, and that staffing depth is the main reason it holds up. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 20% below its own weekday level, so the hours are there on paper, but not evenly across the week. Turnover sits at 45.7%, essentially identical to the national figure, so continuity isn't unusually bad or good. Fifteen deficiencies appear on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The last inspection was April 2026, so the picture is recent.

Staff turnover
—
Serious cites
0

Golden Age Manor runs on county money, and its staffing numbers are right at the national line, 3.82 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 average. That's basically a wash on paper, but weekends drop about 13% below the home's own weekday level, which is where thin coverage tends to show up. The bigger issue is the inspection record: 28 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to cause harm, though nothing abuse-related. State inspectors were last in on April 10, 2025, and gave the health inspection side 2 out of 5 stars. Quality measures land at 3, staffing at 4. A county home with a clean abuse record and a recent visit, but 28 findings is a lot to carry.

Gold Country Health Center

Placerville, CA · El Dorado County

CMS 3/5 68 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
46%
Serious cites
0

Gold Country Health Center sits on the high side for nurse staffing, 4.83 hours per resident day, roughly 25% above the national average, which is probably why its staffing star lands at 4 out of 5. The catch is consistency: weekends run about 17% thinner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 46.2%, essentially matching the national rate, so the faces change about as often here as anywhere. The 51 deficiencies on record, including 2 at harm level and $14,886 in fines, explain why inspections score 3 out of 5 despite strong quality measures. A for-profit LLC operates the 68-bed building, and its last inspection was September 2025.

Staff turnover
29%
Serious cites
0

Nurse staffing at West Covina Medical Center's distinct-part unit runs 8.47 hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86, a striking figure for a 33-bed for-profit home. Weekend coverage dips about 18% below weekday levels, and staff turnover sits at 29.3%, better than the 45.8% national average. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record: 34 deficiencies, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. State inspectors visited most recently in December 2025. A 4/5 health inspection rating and 4/5 quality measures offset a 3/5 staffing star, which may reflect the weekend gap more than raw hours.

San Francisco, CA · San Francisco County

CMS 3/5 769 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
17%
Serious cites
0

Laguna Honda runs 769 certified beds in San Francisco, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.83 hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average, while annual turnover of 17.3% is far below the 45.8% typical elsewhere. That combination is unusual and worth noting, though weekend coverage drops about 22% from weekday levels. The inspection record is where the picture darkens: 40 deficiencies on file, six of them involving harm or jeopardy and seven tied to abuse, plus eight fines totaling $55,499. The most recent inspection was May 2, 2025, so the findings are current. Ownership is for-profit and individual. Strong staffing hasn't kept the regulatory record clean.

Sterling Nursing And Rehab

Sterling City, TX · Sterling County

CMS 4/5 44 beds Government Medicaid
Nurse hours
5.35 /day
Staff turnover
53%
Serious cites
0

Sterling Nursing and Rehab is county-owned, and the staffing reflects that: 5.35 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 39% above the national average. That's the strongest thing in the numbers, though weekends run about 19% lighter than weekdays, and turnover sits at 53.3% against a national 45.8%, people are cycling through here faster than average. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and none tied to abuse. The last state visit was September 2025. Four stars on inspections, quality measures, and staffing put this home solidly above middle ground, with the open question being whether that staffing cushion holds up when turnover keeps grinding.

Sumter Health And Rehabilitation, L L C

York, AL · Sumter County

CMS 3/5 125 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
37%
Serious cites
0

Sumter Health and Rehabilitation runs 125 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.36 hours per resident day, about 13 percent under the national figure of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 14 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the quietest shifts are also the thinnest. Turnover lands at 36.8 percent, which is actually better than the 45.8 percent national average; keeping caregivers longer matters for residents who need consistency. The inspection record shows eight deficiencies, none involving harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, though the last full inspection was April 2022. Quality and staffing each earned 4 of 5 stars from CMS; health inspection earned 3.

Eastern Shore Rehabilitation and Health Center runs on 4.06 nurse hours per resident day, a bit more than the national average of 3.86, and that shows up in a five-star staffing rating. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 14% below what the home staffs during the week. Its inspection record shows seven deficiencies with none at the harm level and nothing abuse-related, though the last full inspection was in March 2021, so that picture is getting old. Staff turnover sits at 47.7%, slightly worse than the 45.8% national figure, which matters in a 117-bed nonprofit building where consistent caregivers are the point.

Birmingham, AL · Jefferson County

Nurse hours

South Health and Rehabilitation runs a for-profit shop with 83 beds in Birmingham, and the staffing numbers are genuinely a bright spot: 4.19 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average of 3.86. That's real coverage. But look closer and the picture gets uneven, weekends run roughly 27% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover sits at 53.4% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people providing that care keep changing. Inspections tell a similar story: six deficiencies on record, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with $8,569 in fines and the last full look coming back in August 2023. Good weekday staffing, shakier consistency.

The Rehabilitation Center At The Palazzo runs 4.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average, though weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 51.6%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, and the current record shows 29 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, none at the harm level. A 2025 inspection is recent, and the quality measures score well, but the inspection history and turnover are the numbers worth weighing against the staffing cushion.

Heritage Health Care Center

Globe, AZ · Gila County

CMS 4/5 96 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
3.36 /day
Staff turnover
26%
Serious cites
0

Heritage Health Care Center in Globe runs a tight ship on retention, 25.5% annual staff turnover is well under the 45.8% national average, which means familiar faces on the floor. That stability shows in the inspection record: a 4/5 health inspection rating and a recent February 2026 survey with no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level. The tradeoff is raw hours. At 3.36 nurse staffing hours per resident day, this home sits about 13% below the national average, and weekends dip roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage, so ask specifically who's on duty Saturday and Sunday. Nine total deficiencies, three tied to abuse, are worth reading in full before you visit.

Beatitudes Campus

Phoenix, AZ · Maricopa County

Beatitudes Campus runs leaner than most. At 3.62 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday coverage, a gap families feel most on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover lands at 46.9%, essentially tracking the national rate of 45.8%. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 26 deficiencies, seven tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent survey was September 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well, staffing is middling, and inspections drag. The nonprofit ownership doesn't change what those numbers say.

Haven Of Yuma runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday coverage, so the gaps aren't evenly spread. Turnover lands at 39.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity. The health inspection side is the weak spot: 2 of 5 stars, 13 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none abuse-related. A July 2025 inspection means the record is recent. Quality measures score 5 of 5, but that's self-reported MDS data, not an outside observer.

The Blossoms At Mountain View runs 97 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last health inspection on March 26, 2026 landed clean, five deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. That inspection record is the strong part. The weaker part is staffing: 3.20 nurse hours per resident day sits about 17 percent under the 3.86 national average, with weekend coverage dropping roughly 12 percent below its own weekday level. Annual turnover of 38.7 percent does beat the 45.8 percent national figure, so workers are at least staying longer than average. If you're weighing this one, ask how the weekend shift is actually covered.

Staff turnover

River Ridge runs on thinner nurse coverage than most American nursing homes, about 3.49 hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends dip another 14% below what the home itself staffs during the week. Turnover sits at 46.2%, roughly in line with the national figure, so continuity of caregivers isn't unusually bad here. The current record shows 31 deficiencies, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in June 2025. Cross County's for-profit, LLC-owned home scores well on quality measures but middling on inspections. If you're weighing it, ask how weekend coverage is actually filled.

The Springs of Camden runs a 106-bed for-profit operation in Ouachita County, and its recent inspection history is a mixed bag. Twenty-three deficiencies show up on the current record with none rising to actual harm or jeopardy, but one abuse-related citation is there, and that's the kind of thing worth asking about directly. Staffing sits slightly above the national average at 3.96 nurse hours per resident day, though weekends drop roughly 14% below weekday coverage, a gap families often feel on Saturday and Sunday. Turnover runs 48.8%, a few points above the national rate, which means the people caring for your relative may not be the same faces month to month. The last inspection was May 2025, so the record is current.

The Springs of Harrison runs a tight ship on inspections, earning the top federal rating there with 16 deficiencies on record and none involving harm or abuse. Staffing is where it thins out: 3.59 nurse hours per resident day sits about 7% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 9% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover lands at 41.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. For-profit, LLC-owned, 90 beds, last inspected July 2025. If your family member needs steady weekday attention, this place looks solid; if weekends are when you visit, ask who's actually on the floor.

Heartland runs 3.71 nurse hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 11% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 51.2%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so even with 140 beds, you'd want to ask how often residents see familiar faces. That said, the clinical side looks solid: a 5/5 quality measure rating, a 4/5 inspection rating, and only 10 deficiencies on record with none at harm or jeopardy level and no abuse citations. That mix, strong outcomes, thinner staffing, is what's behind the B.
