Ridgecrest Village runs 137 certified beds in Davenport as a nonprofit, and the numbers worth knowing sit in its staffing and inspection record. Nurse staffing comes in at 3.69 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends drop about 7% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover is 97.4%, more than double the national figure of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses around your family member likely change often. The current record carries 41 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, along with three fines totaling $118,886. The most recent inspection was October 2025, and the health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5.

Lantern Park Specialty Care runs 90 certified beds in Coralville under nonprofit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.52 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover tells a sharper story: 59.4% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning well over half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows 47 deficiencies, including 5 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, plus one fine totaling $62,595. CMS rated its last inspection two stars on health and two on quality measures, with staffing at three. The most recent survey was July 2025.

Westwood Specialty Care is a nonprofit home with 85 beds in Sioux City, and the numbers families tend to ask about first are the inspection ones. Its record carries 79 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $181,086, and the most recent inspection was in April 2026, so this isn't a stale file. Staffing sits at 3.20 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average, with weekends running about 13 percent thinner than weekdays and turnover at 49.3 percent. Ownership being nonprofit doesn't offset any of that on its own.

Dubuque Specialty Care runs about 2.89 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 17% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 57.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing team leaves each year. The inspection record carries 23 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a $53,372 fine, and the most recent inspection was July 30, 2025. Quality measures score mid-range, but thin staffing and high turnover are the numbers that matter most for day-to-day care.

Good Shepherd Health Center runs 170 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover is 68.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year won't be there next year. The inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 1 abuse-related, with one fine of $87,458. The last inspection was recent, in December 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale.

Living Center West runs lean on nursing staff, 2.82 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday levels. That staffing shortfall shows up in a 61.4% annual turnover rate, well above the national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses at the bedside keep changing. The inspection record is heavy: 33 deficiencies, seven at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, and $72,070 in fines. A 5/5 quality measure rating and a non-profit owner don't offset a 2/5 on inspections and 1/5 on staffing.

Special Focus Facility

Bishop Drumm is run by a church-affiliated nonprofit, and its staffing numbers tell two stories. Nurse hours sit at 3.64 per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover is the bright spot: 34.9% against a national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. But the inspection record is where this home falls apart, 77 deficiencies, 9 of them at harm or jeopardy level, four fines totaling $258,177, and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the country's most troubled homes. A July 2025 inspection is recent, so the picture isn't stale.
