Kahl Home has a strange split on its record. The clinical quality measures come in at the top of CMS's scale and staffing is solidly above average, 3.96 nurse hours per resident day, a bit ahead of the 3.86 national figure, with turnover at 37.2% against a 45.8% national rate. But the health inspection side tells a different story: 15 deficiencies on the current record, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and CMS rates inspections just 2 out of 5. Weekend coverage also dips about 7% below weekday levels. The most recent inspection, in March 2026, is recent enough to trust. The B reflects real strengths in care delivery weighed against unresolved problems with how the building is run day to day.

Crown Pointe Estates runs 4.88 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average of 3.86, and the weekend drop is modest at around 12 percent. Staff turnover sits at 27.8 percent against a national figure of 45.8, meaning workers tend to stick around here longer than at most homes. The tradeoff shows up elsewhere: 18 deficiencies on the current record, though none reached harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, with the most recent inspection in June 2025. Quality measure scores land below average even as staffing earns top marks, so the picture is a well-staffed nonprofit that hasn't yet turned that advantage into strong clinical outcomes on paper.

The Village in Indianola runs on a nonprofit model and staffs above the national average, 4.10 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. Turnover sits at 45.9%, essentially the national average, which means retention here isn't a crisis but isn't a strength either. Seven deficiencies appear on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was January 15, 2026, recent enough to trust. Four stars on health inspections and quality measures, five on staffing, with 54 beds, small enough that you can reasonably expect staff to know residents by name.

Laurens Care Center runs on 4.30 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, and that staffing depth is the main thing holding its record together. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, so care thins out somewhat on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 42.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection history is mixed: 15 deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, with the last inspection dated April 2026. Pocahontas County's nonprofit home isn't coasting on reputation, it's earning its marks through consistent nurse coverage, while those abuse-related findings deserve a direct question.

Good Samaritan, George runs 36 beds as a nonprofit, and its staff stick around longer than most, turnover of 37.9% beats the national 45.8%, but there aren't many of them: 3.34 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% under the national average, thinning further on weekends. The quality and staffing stars look strong, yet the inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with $18,142 in fines and a survey completed in August 2025. Stable caregivers, lighter coverage, and a cited record, weigh all three before deciding.

Fellowship Village sits in Inwood, a small town in Lyon County, and it's run by a nonprofit corporation, which tends to mean any surplus goes back into the building rather than out to shareholders. On paper, the care side looks solid: four stars each on health inspections and quality measures, and just six deficiencies on the current record with none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related. The catch is staffing, where it earns only one star, well below what you'd want for 40 residents. Inspections were recent, in November 2025, so the picture is current. The takeaway: good outcomes so far, but ask directly how many aides are on the floor during evenings and weekends.

Corning Specialty Care runs 40 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.43 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Annual turnover lands at 43.5%, slightly better than the national 45.8%. Its inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The most recent inspection was in February 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measure scores are strong and staffing scores are solid. The tradeoff here is real: good clinical outcomes and low-severity findings, but thinner daily coverage than the typical home.

Laporte City Specialty Care runs a tight ship on inspections, a four-star health inspection record with only three deficiencies and none tied to abuse. The catch is staffing. At 3.24 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 16% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 12% below its own weekday levels, which matters if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. The good news: turnover is 25.7%, well below the 45.8% national figure, so the people who are there tend to stay. Its last inspection was recent, in February 2026. For 46 beds under nonprofit ownership, that's a decent overall picture, just go in knowing the daily coverage is leaner than most.

Wapello Specialty Care runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, about 3.4 hours per resident each day against a national figure near 3.9, and weekends dip roughly 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 37%, which sounds high until you note the national average is closer to 46%, so this nonprofit keeps its people longer than typical. The inspection record is where the picture gets muddier: 29 deficiencies on file, including three at the level where residents were actually harmed or put in jeopardy, and two tied to abuse. The last full inspection was in late 2025, so that record is current. Strong quality and staffing scores from CMS sit alongside that citation history.

Pleasantview Home runs about 66 certified beds in Kalona under nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits roughly 10% above the national average at 4.26 hours per resident day. Weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinnest when families tend to visit. Staff turnover lands at 46%, essentially matching the national figure, which means retention is ordinary rather than a standout strength. The current record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 2026. Quality and staffing each earned four stars from CMS, while health inspections came in at three.

Lamoni Specialty Care runs 3.63 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage, so the daily help is thinner than average, especially Saturday and Sunday. That said, staff retention is strong: turnover sits at 32.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. Inspections back that up, with a 5/5 health inspection rating, a 5/5 quality measure rating, and only 5 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The most recent inspection was February 19, 2026. This nonprofit's record is clean, but watch weekend staffing.

Evans Senior Living Community runs 43 beds in Cresco under nonprofit ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest thing about it: one deficiency on file, nothing at the harm level, and a survey completed in August 2025. The staffing picture is more mixed. At 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday coverage, the stretch when families often notice less attention. What offsets that is retention: 28.9% turnover against a 45.8% national rate means the people caring for your relative are more likely to still be there next year. Low deficiencies, stable staff, slightly thin weekend hours.

The Vinton Lutheran Home runs a strong floor: 4.12 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, with turnover at 40% against a national 45.8%. Those are the numbers behind the top staffing rating. The problem sits in the inspection record. Thirteen deficiencies on file, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, earned a 1 out of 5 inspection rating, and the most recent survey closed April 30, 2026. Weekend staffing also drops about 17% below its weekday level, so coverage thins exactly when families visit and issues tend to surface. Good people, thin margins on compliance. Ask about the plan to fix it.

Ossian Care Center runs on 4.63 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more staffing than the national average, and turnover sits below the national rate. That combination is doing most of the work in its grade. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 18% from weekday levels, and a health inspection record carrying 19 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy. Inspectors were last in on January 22, 2026, and the 2/5 inspection rating is the weakest part of the file. The nursing care is there; the compliance history is the question mark.

Odebolt Specialty Care is a small nonprofit home, 38 beds, and its staffing picture is genuinely strong: 3.73 nurse hours per resident day, close to the national average, with weekend coverage running about 9% lighter than weekdays. Turnover sits at 31%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which matters for how well aides know the residents. The trouble is the inspection record: 20 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, and one fine of $14,433. The most recent inspection was March 12, 2026. Consistent hands, a thinner record on safety.

Sheffield Care Center runs 45 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is 36.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 14 deficiencies on record including 2 abuse-related, and three fines totaling $17,644. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Quality and staffing measures both rate 4 out of 5, so the clinical picture looks steadier than the survey history does.

Fieldstone Of Dewitt runs on 4.06 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips roughly 7% below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover sits at 34.9%, well below the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around, which matters more than any single inspection score. The home carries four deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with a health inspection from July 2025. Quality measures land mid-range while staffing and inspections score higher.

Creekside runs on 4.12 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 33.3% is well below the 45.8% national figure, two signs of a stable, adequately staffed building. Weekend coverage dips about 7% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record is thin: one deficiency total, none at harm level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in December 2025. The weaker spot is the 2/5 quality measure rating, so ask what specific clinical measures are dragging that down.

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.

Park Place runs on a nonprofit model with 49 beds in Mount Pleasant, and the staffing numbers stand out: 5.31 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's roughly a third more hands-on time than most homes, though weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Turnover sits at 51.9%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means new faces cycle through fairly often. The record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. Inspectors last visited in May 2025.
