Staff turnover

Crowne Healthcare Of North Baldwin runs on better-than-average nursing hours, 4.07 per resident day against a national 3.86, though weekends dip about 21% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. Staff turnover sits at 35.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, ten deficiencies on record, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related. That last inspection was November 2021, so the record may not reflect current conditions. The staffing and turnover numbers are doing the heavy lifting here; the inspection history is the part worth asking about directly.

Serious cites

Providence Valdez Medical Center runs a ten-bed unit owned by the city, and its nurse staffing sits at 8.55 hours per resident day, more than double the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops about 14% below its own weekday levels, so the generous weekday numbers aren't quite the whole picture. Inspectors have cited 19 deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related; the most recent inspection was in May 2026. That combination of heavy staffing, a small government-run setting, and a mixed inspection history is what lands it where it does.

Camelback Post Acute runs lean on nursing hours, 3.25 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 16% below its own weekday coverage, so a Saturday or Sunday shift is when your family member is most likely to wait. The for-profit corporate owner has held onto staff better than most, with 34.4% turnover versus 45.8% nationally, and the 5/5 quality measure rating suggests the clinical tracking is solid. But 20 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm level and one abuse-related, plus a 2/5 inspection rating from the April 2024 survey, is the part I'd press the administrator on directly before deciding.

Chandler Post Acute and Rehabilitation runs 120 beds under corporate ownership, and its numbers are a mixed bag worth understanding before you visit. Nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average, and weekends drop about 17% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so a Saturday or Sunday shift is when you'd want to pay closest attention. Turnover at 43.7% is actually a touch better than the national figure, and the quality measure score is strong. The part that gives pause: 21 deficiencies on record, five tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was December 2023.

Courtyard Rehabilitation and Health Center runs 76 certified beds in El Dorado under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the standout: a perfect five-star health inspection rating with zero deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related on the books. The 15 total deficiencies are the lighter, paperwork-type findings that don't suggest residents are in danger. Staffing sits at 3.81 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 18% leaner than weekdays, so ask how weekend coverage actually looks on the floor. Turnover at 40.3% beats the national 45.8%, which matters for whether you see the same faces.

Highlands of Bella Vista runs on a for-profit LLC model with 90 certified beds, and its staffing sits about 15% above the national average at 4.44 nurse hours per resident day. That's a real cushion, though weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday levels, so coverage isn't evenly spread. Turnover lands at 45.6%, essentially matching the national rate. The harder part is the inspection record: 21 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a single $8,055 fine and a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating from CMS. The most recent survey was November 2024, so that record is fairly current. Quality measures score well, but the survey history is where the concern sits.

Harvard Creek Post Acute runs on 4.85 total nurse hours per resident day, about 26% above the national average, that's the strongest thing in its numbers. Weekend staffing dips only slightly below weekday levels, so coverage stays steady. But the record shows 44 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, even though none reached harm or jeopardy; a February 2026 inspection keeps that picture current. Quality measures score well, though the staffing star sits lower than the raw hours might suggest, and this is a for-profit LLC. If you're weighing it, ask specifically about that abuse-related citation and how the building's care planning has changed since.

The Bradley Gardens runs 44 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership in San Jacinto, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.13 hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average. Weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins slightly when families tend to visit. The bigger thing to weigh is the inspection record: 48 deficiencies on file, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was August 2025. CMS gives it 3 stars for health inspections and staffing, 4 for quality measures. Nothing here signals danger, but the deficiency count and abuse citations are worth raising directly with the administrator.

Lake Balboa Care Center runs about 4.95 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover of 26.7% sits well under the national 45.8%. Weekend coverage, though, drops about 17% below its own weekday level, so care can thin out when families visit. The current record shows 28 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in April 2026. State survey results land at 3 out of 5 stars, while the quality measures score 5 out of 5. For-profit corporate ownership, 50 beds.

Colorado Veterans Community Living Ctr At Homelake runs on unusually deep staffing for a 60-bed home, 5.08 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, with turnover at 23.7% against a national 45.8%. That stability shows: a five-star staffing rating and a five-star health inspection record, with the most recent survey in October 2024. The friction sits elsewhere. Nine deficiencies are on file, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, and the quality measure rating lands at two stars, the clinical outcomes side doesn't match the care hours. Weekend coverage also drops about 25% below weekday levels, so ask how that gap gets covered.

Bride Brook runs a tight ship on the clinical side. Its last inspection was in April 2025, and the 11 deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, that's a clean enforcement picture, which matters more than the raw count suggests. Staffing sits at 3.74 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 3% under the national average, and weekends dip about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, so ask how weekend shifts are actually covered. Turnover is the real bright spot: 33.9% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning caregivers tend to stay. For-profit LLC ownership, 130 beds.

Mountain Valley of Cascadia runs a tight ship on retention: 33.3% annual turnover beats the national 45.8% by a wide margin, so the aides and nurses here tend to stick around. Staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, a bit under the 3.86 national average, and weekends drop roughly 18% below weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. The ten deficiencies on record are all low-level, none causing harm, though one is abuse-related and deserves a direct question. Inspections are recent and the federal ratings are solid across health, quality, and staffing.

Owyhee Health & Rehabilitation Center runs 58 certified beds in Homedale, and the numbers here hold up better than most. Nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop roughly 20% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover is 38.8%, lower than the national 45.8%, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month. The home carries 13 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with its last inspection in August 2025. Corporate for-profit ownership, so ask who's actually on the floor.

Life Care Center of Sandpoint runs 124 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.92 hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86. That edge shrinks on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 17% below the home's own weekday level, so families should ask who's actually on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 35.8%, meaningfully better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 38 deficiencies on the current record and a 2-star health inspection rating, though none reached harm or jeopardy level and none were abuse-related. The most recent inspection was July 25, 2025.

Willowdale Village runs 50 certified beds in Spencer County, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the story: six deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or jeopardy, and none tied to abuse. The last state visit was in February 2026, so the record is recent rather than something you're trusting from years back. Staffing is where it gets more mixed. At 3.77 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average, and weekends run roughly 16% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover, though, is 32.1% against a national 45.8%, which suggests people tend to stay.

Todd-Dickey runs a tight ship on the clinical side, earning four and five stars for inspections and quality measures, with just three deficiencies on record and none tied to abuse. The last state visit was recent, in July 2025. Where it slips is direct care time: 3.64 nurse hours per resident day sits about 6% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 19% thinner than weekdays, so coverage can feel stretched on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover of 41.9% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, though that still means a lot of new faces. Corporate for-profit ownership, 62 beds.

Wellbrooke Of Avon sits on the west side of Indianapolis with 70 certified beds, run by a for-profit corporation. Its staffing comes in at 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, though weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs more attention on Saturdays and Sundays. The turnover picture is genuinely good: 30.2% versus a national average of 45.8%, which suggests people stick around. On inspections, there are 17 deficiencies on record but none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent visit was in March 2026. Quality measures scored well, and staffing landed solid.

Rockwell Community Nursing Home runs on 4.38 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent more than the national average of 3.86, and that strength shows up in its five-star staffing rating. Weekend coverage slips about 15 percent below the home's own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. One deficiency sits on the current record with nothing at the harm level and no abuse findings, following an inspection in September 2025, and staff turnover of 47.1 percent edges just past the 45.8 percent national figure, worth asking about, since consistency matters as much as raw hours.

Stonehill Care Center runs 4.31 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly 12% above the national average of 3.86, and that staffing shows up in its four-star rating. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, which is common but worth knowing if you're visiting on a Saturday. The inspection record is clean where it counts: four total deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a visit as recent as August 2025. As a nonprofit with 185 beds in Dubuque, it's working from a stable base. Families weighing options here are looking at a home that's solidly staffed and hasn't had serious trouble.

Serious cites

Pleasant Valley Manor runs on thin margins in a small county, but the staffing numbers are the real story here. At 4.59 nurse hours per resident day, it's giving residents roughly a fifth more nursing time than the typical American home, and the weekend gap, about 18% below its own weekday level, is smaller than what many facilities show. The catch is turnover: 55.8% of staff leave each year, well above the national 45.8%, so that generous staffing is constantly being rebuilt with new faces. Fifteen deficiencies on record sounds like a lot until you see none reached harm or jeopardy, and no abuse citations appear. The most recent inspection was February 2025, so the picture is current.
