Alden Of Waterford runs 99 certified beds in Aurora under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.64 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are thinner still, about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters when falls and infections don't check the calendar. Staff turnover of 43.5% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, though still high enough that familiar faces are not a given. The current record carries 30 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a single fine of $106,499. Its last inspection was March 27, 2025.

Willows Of Richmond is county-owned and runs 87 beds, with a recent inspection on record from May 2025. The staffing picture is the main thing to know: 3.16 nurse hours per resident day sits about 18% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 23% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover is 35.8%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so people tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record: 21 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with middle-of-the-road marks across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

Aperion Care Greenfield runs 2.92 nursing hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less hands-on time, and weekends dip about 21% below what the building manages on weekdays. Turnover sits at 38.5%, actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem isn't a revolving door so much as not enough staff on the floor to begin with. The current record shows 31 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was in September 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, land at two out of five.

Poplar Care Strategies runs 62 beds in Loogootee under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are on the inspection side. Thirty-six deficiencies sit on its current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level, with a single fine of $8,021 attached. Federal inspectors last visited in January 2026, so the record is recent rather than stale. Staffing tells a similar story from a different angle. At 3.63 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 6% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday level, meaning the thinnest coverage arrives when families often visit. No abuse deficiencies appear on the record.

Kenwood Health and Rehabilitation Center in Richmond runs 93 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the story starts. At 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. Turnover at 40.7% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record is genuinely strong: a 5-out-of-5 CMS health inspection rating, one deficiency on the current record, none at harm level, none abuse-related, and a survey as recent as July 2025. Quality measures and staffing both rate 2 out of 5, though, which is the tension here, clean inspections, lighter day-to-day coverage.

Berea Health and Rehabilitation runs 84 certified beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and its staffing picture is more fragile than the headline number suggests. Total nurse staffing sits at 3.91 hours per resident day, barely above the national average, but weekends drop about 17% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 55.2% against a national 45.8%. Inspections look better: a 4/5 health inspection rating, most recently surveyed in April 2025, with seven deficiencies on record, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and $16,801 in fines across two penalties. The gap between decent inspection results and thin, churning staffing is what stands out here.

Liberty Care & Rehabilitation Center runs 97 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers worth knowing are on the inspection side. Seventeen deficiencies sit on the current record, six of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two tied to abuse. Three fines add up to $65,196. Staffing lands at 3.47 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 16% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover of 55.8% runs well above the 45.8% national figure. The quality measure score looks strong, but quality measures rely on self-reported data, the inspection history and the thin weekend staffing are the parts a family can't argue with.

The Columns runs 140 beds in Jonesville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 18% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Annual turnover runs 50% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The current inspection record carries 25 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level; the most recent survey was May 2025. Quality and staffing each earned two of five stars from CMS, inspection three.

The Woodlands Healthcare Center runs about 3.33 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 14 percent under the national average, and weekends drop another 19 percent below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 44.2 percent, statistically close to the 45.8 percent national figure, so retention isn't the standout problem here, daily staffing volume is. Inspectors logged 18 deficiencies on the current record with none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last visit was September 2025. Quality and staffing star ratings both come in at 2 out of 5. It's a for-profit LLC with 152 certified beds, so ask about weekend coverage and that abuse citation directly.

Colonial Oaks runs lean on nursing hours, 3.11 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 18% below its own weekday pace. That thin coverage is the main reason its staffing rating sits at the bottom of the federal scale, even though turnover at 39.7% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, none of them serious enough to cause harm and none tied to abuse, with the most recent survey dated May 2026. Quality measures land below average too. A for-profit LLC operation with 110 beds, this is a home where the care is present but stretched.

Allen Oaks runs 3.73 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday staffing. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 35 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $133,224 fine. CMS gives it 2 stars for health inspections, 2 for staffing, and 1 for quality measures. The most recent inspection was July 2, 2025, so the record is current, and this is a for-profit limited liability company operating 91 certified beds.

Westgate Hills runs leaner than most: 3.59 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 17 percent below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters because needs don't take weekends off. Staff turnover sits at 56.6 percent, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people providing care change often. The current inspection record carries 74 deficiencies, including six tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. State inspectors were last on site in April 2025. Quality measures look strong here, but the staffing and inspection numbers are where a family should focus their questions.

Largo Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 130 certified beds in Glenarden, and the numbers show a home stretched thin on the floor. Nurse staffing sits at 3.11 hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent under the national average, weekend coverage drops about 15 percent below its own weekday level, and the staffing star rating reflects that at 1 out of 5. The inspection record is heavier: 82 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, along with a $72,514 fine and a November 2025 inspection. Annual turnover of 42.7 percent is slightly better than the national figure, and the quality measure rating of 4 out of 5 stands out against the rest. For-profit, limited liability ownership.

If you're weighing Jewish Healthcare Center, the numbers pull in two directions. The state inspection record is genuinely clean for a 141-bed home, one harm-level deficiency out of 17 total, no abuse findings, and a recent survey in January 2026, and residents score well on the federal quality measures. Staffing is the problem. Total nurse hours sit near zero per resident day against a national average around 3.86, weekend coverage drops roughly 17% below weekdays, and 71% of staff turned over in a year versus about 46% nationally. That combination, good outcomes on paper, thin and unstable coverage, is what holds the grade down. Ask how they actually fill a weekend shift before you decide.

Willow Care Nursing Home

Staff turnover

Serious cites
0

Willow Care runs about 3.67 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends drop about 17% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters more than the headline number, because weekends are when families often visit and when fewer eyes are on residents. Annual turnover sits at 58.6%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses caring for people here are, more often than not, relatively new to the building. The inspection record is the bright spot: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 16 deficiencies on file, and none of them at the harm or jeopardy level, with nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was January 8, 2026. Quality measures, though, score 1 out of 5, and that's the split worth asking about on a tour.

Life Care Center of Bridgeton runs on thin nursing coverage. At 3.32 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 14% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 15% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover is the bigger tell: 68.2% annually, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers are constantly new to residents. The inspection record backs that up, 58 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus one fine of $21,801. The last inspection was February 2025, so the record is current. Ownership is for-profit, a limited liability company. Quality measures look decent; staffing is where the problems concentrate.

Hunter Acres Caring Center runs 120 certified beds in Sikeston under individual for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble shows. At 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 20 percent below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Half the staff turned over in the past year, above the 45.8 percent national figure. Inspections look decent on paper (4 of 5 stars, most recent in August 2025), but the record carries 24 deficiencies, including one at harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $10,023 fine. Quality measures earned 2 stars, staffing just 1.

New Haven Care Center runs a tight ship on inspections, a perfect five-star health inspection rating and a recent March 2025 survey with 13 deficiencies, none of them causing harm or involving abuse. That's a real strength. The staffing picture is different. At 3.09 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 20 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 16 percent below its own weekday coverage, so care can thin out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 38.2 percent is better than the national 45.8 percent, meaning workers stay longer than most places. Low quality-measure scores (1/5) round out the concern.

Oak Park Care Center runs 120 beds under corporate ownership, and its numbers tell a mixed story. The health inspection and quality measure ratings both sit at 4 out of 5, and the most recent inspection in August 2024 turned up no abuse citations, but there are 39 deficiencies on record, one of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy. Staffing is where the cracks show: 3.80 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average, with weekend coverage dropping roughly 16% below weekdays. Annual turnover of 55.4% is nearly ten points above the national rate, which means the people caring for residents are frequently new. Plenty of homes in worse shape, but the thin weekend staffing and constant churn are worth asking about directly.

St. Joseph's runs on 3.44 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in the numbers that matter: 65% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, plus 30 deficiencies on the current record, two of them abuse-related. The last inspection was March 2026, so the record is recent rather than stale. A for-profit limited liability company owns the 83-bed home, and its one-star health inspection rating sits alongside two-star marks for staffing and quality measures. No deficiencies rose to harm or jeopardy level, which is worth noting, but the pattern of low staffing and high turnover is the thing to ask about directly.
