Regency Care of Rogue Valley runs 5.14 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 23% is about half the national rate, a combination that usually shows up in how consistently residents see the same caregivers. Weekend staffing dips about 13% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in March 2026. Josephine County's for-profit corporate owner keeps the building fully staffed on paper, and the record largely backs that up.

Reedwood Post Acute runs 64 beds in Portland under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through.

Staff turnover is 28.8%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters for continuity of care.

Regency Gresham runs about 5.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 40% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing dips only about 9% below its own weekday level, so care doesn't thin out as much as it might when families visit. Turnover sits at 29.7% against a national 45.8%, which matters for whether you see the same faces. The 21 deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm level and nothing abuse-related, and the last inspection was September 2025.

West Hills runs nurse staffing at 5.03 hours per resident day, roughly 30 percent above the national average, and its weekend coverage dips about 13 percent below its own weekday numbers. Staff turnover sits at 41.5 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 26 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine of $12,659, with the most recent visit in April 2025. That mix, strong staffing and quality measures against a middling inspection history, is what separates the numbers here from a clean record.

Fernwood runs on 6.29 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 63% above the national average, and weekends dip only about 11% below weekdays, a smaller drop than many homes show. That staffing depth is what lifts its grade despite a mixed inspection record: 22 deficiencies on file, including two at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with a 3/5 inspection rating. The last inspection was August 2025, so the picture is recent. With 16 beds and nonprofit ownership, it's small enough that staff consistency matters more than corporate polish. The quality measure rating is 5/5, which suggests residents' clinical outcomes track better than the deficiency count alone would imply.

Avamere Rehabilitation of Newport runs about 4.46 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping only about 8% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 29.8%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters for consistency of care. The 22 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related; the last inspection was August 2025. The for-profit LLC ownership and a mid-range health inspection rating are the main things keeping this from being a stronger record, the staffing numbers and quality measures are doing the heavy lifting here.

Marquis Springfield runs 5.26 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its 29.7% turnover is well under the 45.8% most homes see. That staffing depth is the strongest thing in the numbers, though weekends thin out about 12% from weekday levels. What holds it back is the inspection record: 33 deficiencies, including three tied to abuse, with no harm-level findings, and the most recent state visit was January 2026. Ownership is corporate for-profit. The care hours and low turnover point to a home that keeps its people; the deficiency list is the part worth asking about directly.

Regency Care of Central Oregon runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 46-bed for-profit home, 5.86 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national figure, which is the main reason it sits where it does. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its weekday level, and annual turnover of 35.2% is meaningfully lower than the 45.8% national average, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 22 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection is from December 2025, so the picture is current.

Staff turnover sits at 30.6%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people tend to stay. The tradeoff is the inspection record: 31 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last survey was in February 2025. Ownership is corporate for-profit. Strong staffing and steady retention are doing the heavy lifting here; the deficiency count is what a family should ask about directly.

Beaverton Post Acute Care of Cascadia runs a for-profit operation with 104 certified beds, and the numbers suggest it's doing the basics well. Nurse staffing sits at 4.66 hours per resident day, roughly 21% above the national average, and the five-star staffing rating backs that up, though weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your relative needs care on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 38.8%, better than the 45.8% national average, which matters for continuity of care. Seventeen deficiencies appear on the current record, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. The last inspection was in August 2025, so the record is recent. Four-star ratings on health inspections and quality measures round out a clean picture.

Marquis Plum Ridge runs 5.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 30 percent above the national figure of 3.86, and that staffing depth shows in the five-star rating CMS gives it for hours worked. Turnover sits at 40.9 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national rate, though weekends run about 9 percent thinner than weekdays. Inspections turned up 30 deficiencies, none causing harm or jeopardy, but three tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. State surveyors were last in on May 22, 2026. Corporate-owned and for-profit, with four stars on both inspections and quality measures. The care hours are the real strength here; the abuse citations are the thing to press on.

Fairlawn runs on 4.76 nurse hours per resident per day, which is roughly a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home. That matters, and so does the stability behind it: turnover sits near 34% while the national figure is closer to 46%, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces from one shift to the next. Weekends dip about 10% below weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The tradeoff shows up in the record: 27 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm, though none tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection is current. For-profit corporate ownership is worth knowing, but the staffing numbers are the real story here.

Avamere Crestview of Portland runs 127 certified beds under corporate, for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.19 hours per resident day, roughly a third above the national average of 3.86. That helps explain the top-tier staffing rating, though weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekday levels, so care may thin out on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover lands at 36.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is where things get murkier: 57 deficiencies on file, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse. The last inspection was February 13, 2026.

Village Manor of Cascadia runs 4.52 nurse hours per resident day, about 17% above the national average, and its staffing star rating reflects that. Weekend coverage dips roughly 8% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 20.9% against a national average of 45.8%, staff here tend to stay. The tradeoff is the inspection record: 24 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, plus a $13,520 fine. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so the record is current. A for-profit LLC with 60 beds. Strong staffing and retention, but the deficiency history is the piece to press on.
