Sunporch Of Dodge City runs at 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 9 percent below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters more than the raw number, because care doesn't pause on Saturdays. Annual turnover sits at 63.9 percent against a national 45.8, so nearly two-thirds of the staff cycle out each year, a churn rate that makes consistent care hard to hold onto. The current record shows 16 deficiencies, none at the harm level but one tied to abuse, and the last inspection came in January 2025. This is a nonprofit corporation, 45 beds, mid-range on all three federal ratings. Nothing here is alarming, and nothing here is reassuring either.
Linn Community Nursing Home runs on thinner staffing than most Kansas homes its size, 3.38 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover sits at 51.1%, above the 45.8% national figure, which means new faces on the floor and less continuity for residents who need consistent care. The current record carries 20 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $10,036 fine. A February 2026 inspection is recent, so this reflects present conditions rather than an old history. Quality measures look better than the day-to-day staffing does.
Park Lane runs on more nursing hours than most homes nationally, 4.45 per resident day against a 3.86 average, and that staffing shows up in a four-star staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips only slightly below weekdays, and turnover at 42.9% is a bit better than the typical 45.8%. Where the picture darkens is quality measures, which land at one star, and a record of 19 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $22,925 fine. The most recent inspection was in March 2025, so the record is current rather than stale. Nonprofit ownership with strong staffing is a real positive, but the quality and deficiency numbers are the parts a family needs to ask about directly.
Parkside Homes runs on an unusual split: the nursing hours are genuinely generous, 5.01 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and staff turnover sits right around the national mark at 44.2%. But that staffing cushion takes a hit on weekends, when coverage drops about 17% below the home's own weekday level, and the inspection record is heavy, 34 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, plus two fines totaling $56,941. The last full inspection was in October 2024. This is a 50-bed nonprofit where the day-to-day care hours look better than most, but the compliance history and a 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating suggest the care being delivered isn't consistently matching the time being paid for.
Good Samaritan Society - Ellsworth Village runs on 3.64 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 6% under the national average, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters in a 43-bed nonprofit home where turnover sits at 52.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record is genuinely strong, a 5/5 health inspection star and a recent survey, but it carries 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus an $8,190 fine. Quality measures score 2/5. Stable inspections, thinner daily coverage.
Villa Maria is a 64-bed nonprofit home in Mulvane, and its inspection record is the strongest thing it has going: a five-star health inspection rating, with the most recent survey in December 2024 and 18 deficiencies on file, none of them at the harm or jeopardy level and none related to abuse. The nursing hours tell a different story. At 3.92 per resident day, staffing sits barely above the national average of 3.86, and the three-star staffing rating reflects that. Weekend coverage drops roughly 8% below weekday levels, and annual turnover of 65.8% runs well above the national 45.8%. One fine totaling $22,081 is on record.
Leisure Homestead At Stafford runs 37 beds as a nonprofit, and its health inspection record is where it looks strongest, a recent August 2025 survey and no deficiencies tied to actual harm or abuse among the 20 on file. Staff turnover sits at 36.7%, better than the 45.8% national average, which matters for consistency of care. The staffing numbers tell a different story: the government's staffing rating is the lowest tier, and quality measures land at 2 of 5, so day-to-day coverage and clinical outcomes lag well behind the inspection picture. For a family weighing this home, the honest read is a place that passes its surveys but may run thin on the floor.
Sunset Home in Concordia runs 45 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its federal record is rough in the areas that matter most. Inspectors have cited 44 deficiencies, four of them tied to abuse and three serious enough to put residents in immediate harm's way, with five fines totaling $43,175. Staffing sits at the bottom of CMS's scale, one star, and the health inspection rating matches it, so the direct-care and oversight numbers aren't offsetting each other. The quality measure score, three stars, looks better on paper, but those measures depend on staff actually documenting and following through. The most recent inspection was March 2025, so this is current, not old history. If you're considering it, ask what's changed since then.
Frankfort Community Care Home runs a nonprofit operation with 40 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average, 3.93 hours per resident day versus 3.86. That margin shrinks on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover is the bigger concern: 57.1% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing team leaves each year. The inspection record is where things get harder to explain away, 33 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $25,413. A 2025 inspection is recent enough to reflect current conditions. Strong staffing numbers sit alongside real quality and safety problems here.
Westy Community Care Home runs a 40-bed nonprofit operation in Westmoreland, and the staffing numbers are genuinely its strongest point, 4.25 nurse hours per resident day sits about 10% above the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 6% below its own weekday level. That's real direct-care presence. But the staff giving that care turn over at 65.3% a year, well above the 45.8% national rate, and that churn shows up elsewhere: 24 deficiencies on the current record, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse. Two fines total $19,406. The last inspection was September 2024. Good hours on paper, but heavy turnover and a troubled inspection history.
Greeley County Hospital Ltcu is a small non-profit home in Tribune, just 16 certified beds, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture, with a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating and a recent survey from November 2025. The trouble sits in the other two categories: CMS gives it 1 out of 5 for both quality measures and staffing. Its record carries 19 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one tied to abuse. Staff turnover runs 38.5%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national average, so retention isn't the main problem here. The low staffing rating is about hours and coverage, not whether people stay.
Topeka Presbyterian Manor runs a genuine split: the nursing hours are there, 4.54 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and that earns a top-tier staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, though it stays respectable. The problems sit elsewhere. On the current record there are 33 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and one tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $56,260. Health inspection and quality measure ratings both land at the bottom of the scale. Staff turnover, at 47.4%, runs slightly worse than the national figure. Good hours, troubled oversight, the staffing is not where the risk lives here.
Sandstone Heights has a staffing story worth noticing: 4.18 nurse hours per resident day sits about 8% above the national average, and weekends only dip roughly 9% below weekdays. That consistency matters. Less encouraging is who's providing that care, nearly 59% of staff turned over in a year, well above the national 45.8%. The inspection record is where things get concerning: 20 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $67,763. The last inspection was March 2025, so the record is current. Nonprofit ownership offers some stability, but with quality measures scoring 1 out of 5 and health inspections at 2, the strong staffing numbers aren't translating into strong outcomes.
Russell Regional Hospital Ltcu is a 23-bed nonprofit unit, and the numbers here deserve a close look before you decide anything. The inspection history shows 33 deficiencies on the current record, including three tied to abuse, none of those reached the level of actual harm or jeopardy, but the volume still stands out for a home this small. Staffing and quality measures both sit at one star out of five, meaning the direct-care hours and clinical outcomes fall well below what CMS expects. The most recent inspection was in September 2025, so the picture is fairly current. With a record this heavy on a 23-bed unit, ask hard questions about turnover and who's actually on the floor at night.
Riverview Estates runs on a paradox: the aides show up, but the building keeps failing inspections. At 4.35 nurse hours per resident day, staffing sits about 13% above the national average and earns a top CMS staffing rating, though weekends run roughly 12% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover of 51.3% tops the national 45.8%. The trouble is everything else. Health inspection and quality measure ratings both sit at the bottom, with 25 deficiencies on record, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse. Two fines total $35,839, and the last inspection was March 2025. Good coverage can't offset a record like that.
Staffing is this home's strongest number. At 4.47 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 16% above the national average, and a 38.2% turnover rate sits well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Weekends thin out roughly 11% from weekday coverage, worth asking about if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays.
The trouble sits in the inspection record. Twenty-two deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse, and a $36,040 fine. The most recent inspection was in February 2026. Strong day-to-day care, but a survey history that needs explaining before you sign anything.
Logan County Senior Living runs 30 beds as a nonprofit, and the direct-care hours are genuinely better than most, 4.19 per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips modestly below its own weekday pace, which is typical but worth watching at a home this small. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 25 deficiencies on file, six of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $98,346. Staff turnover sits right at the national average, so retention isn't the problem here, oversight and compliance appear to be. Ask about the abuse citations and what changed since the February 2026 survey.
Via Christi Village Pittsburg runs a nonprofit home with 96 beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.06 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, though weekend coverage drops roughly 7% below its own weekday level. The bigger issue is turnover: 88.8% annually, nearly double the national rate of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents are constantly changing. On inspections it holds a 3-star rating with 29 deficiencies on record, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a $13,397 fine. Ownership changed within the past year, and its last inspection was October 2024.
Good Samaritan Society - Liberal runs a non-profit home with 45 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are genuinely strong: 4.07 nurse hours per resident per day, about 5% above the national average, with turnover at 32.6% versus 45.8% nationally. Weekend coverage dips roughly 15% below weekday levels, which matters when a resident needs help on a Saturday.
Where it falls apart is inspections. CMS rates the health inspection side 1 out of 5, with 32 deficiencies on record, 7 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, plus four fines totaling $94,784. The home sits in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the country's most persistently troubled homes, and its last inspection was July 2024. Good staff, serious safety problems.
The Shepherd's Center is small, 28 beds, and it's a nonprofit, but that hasn't kept it out of trouble. CMS has it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a pattern of serious problems, and the inspection record backs that up: 26 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level, three abuse-related, plus a $13,627 fine. Staffing tells two stories. The federal formula gives it top marks, yet the actual hours per resident land about 19% under the national average, and weekends run thinner still. Turnover sits at 58.1%.
