How non-profit Medicaid-certified homes in Michigan compare
This group set against every nursing home in Michigan, from the current CMS release.
The Village of East Harbor runs a church-affiliated nonprofit home with 102 beds in Chesterfield Township, and its staffing sits at 4.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average. That edge narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 14% below the home's own weekday level, something worth asking about if your family visits primarily on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover lands at 43.4%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows 17 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine of $15,593. The most recent inspection was April 2, 2025, so the picture is reasonably current.
Resthaven Care Center runs about 4.33 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average, and its staff tends to stay, turnover of 35.5% sits well under the national 45.8%. That stability matters, though weekend coverage drops about 16% below weekday levels, so staffing isn't perfectly even across the week. The inspection record is mixed: 29 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse. A June 2025 inspection keeps the picture current. As a nonprofit with 145 beds, it shows real strengths in direct care hours and retention, paired with a health inspection history that's merely average.
Bronson Commons has real strengths in its staffing, and they're worth naming: 4.43 nurse hours per resident day puts it about 15% above the national average, and turnover at 40.3% is better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere. Weekend coverage dips roughly 11% below weekday levels, though, so care may feel thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. What pulls the picture down is the inspection record, 21 deficiencies currently on file, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in June 2025. Federal quality and inspection ratings both sit at 2 out of 5. Strong hands on staff, but a compliance history that needs watching.
Harold and Grace Upjohn Community Care Center runs 87 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.76 nurse hours per resident day. Weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays, so coverage dips when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 40.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, and CMS gives the home 4 stars each for staffing and quality measures.
The trouble is the inspection record: 56 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 abuse-related, with $31,186 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was March 2025, and CMS rates that inspection history 2 out of 5 stars. Strong quality scores don't cancel out that many serious findings.
Froh Community Home runs on noticeably thin nurse coverage, 2.61 hours per resident day, roughly a third below the national average, and weekends dip about 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays. The trade-off is stability: turnover sits at 18.8% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay, and quality measures score well. But the inspection record carries weight: 19 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, and a single fine of $125,564. A May 2025 inspection is recent enough to trust. As a church-affiliated nonprofit, there's no ownership chain pulling profit out, but low staffing hours and harm-level findings are what families should ask about directly.
Wellspring Lutheran Services in Frankenmuth runs on a nonprofit model with 83 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.96 hours per resident day, roughly 3% above the national average of 3.86. That margin is real but thin, and weekends dip about 7% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the weekday-to-weekend gap is worth asking about directly.
Turnover lands at 47.7%, just above the national 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing staff turns over in a year. The current record shows 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, a volume that reflects paperwork and process issues rather than resident safety. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current.
The Gilbert Residence is a 32-bed nonprofit home in Ypsilanti with a recent inspection on record and no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, a meaningful distinction, since most of its 18 citations are paperwork and process issues rather than resident injury. Two abuse-related deficiencies still stand out. Staffing sits at 3.72 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 7% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the bigger concern at 54.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters more in a building this small where residents see the same few aides every day.
Corewell Health Rehabilitation & Nursing Center runs 196 certified beds in Dearborn as a nonprofit, and its numbers pull in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.07 hours per resident day, roughly 21 percent under the national average, and weekends run about 14 percent thinner than weekdays, a pattern families often feel on Saturday and Sunday. Turnover is 36.5 percent, better than the national 45.8 percent, so the people who stay tend to stay. The current inspection record carries 20 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, which makes the thin weekday-and-weekend coverage and that deficiency list the parts worth asking about directly.
Covenant Village of the Great Lakes runs on 4.28 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, which is the main reason its staffing rating holds at 4 out of 5. That figure softens on weekends, though, when coverage drops about 11% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 50%, a bit above the 45.8% national mark, so the people caring for residents change fairly often. The 22 deficiencies on record include nothing tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse, and the last inspection closed in March 2026. Quality measures are the weak spot here, scoring 2 out of 5, even as inspections earned 4.
Heartwood Lodge Trinity Health runs 84 certified beds in Spring Lake as a nonprofit. Its nurses provide 3.97 hours per resident per day, modestly above the national average of 3.86, but weekend staffing drops about 9% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 48% against a national 45.8%. The real concern is the inspection record: 37 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating and a survey dated June 13, 2025. Quality and staffing each earn 3 out of 5. Families should ask directly how the abuse-related findings were resolved and who covers weekends.
Helen Newberry Joy Hltcu Golden Leaves Living Cent runs 39 certified beds in Newberry as a nonprofit corporation. Staff turnover sits at 34.5%, better than the national average of 45.8%, a real bright spot, since stable caregivers matter for daily consistency.
Everything else on the record pulls the other way. CMS gives this home just 1 out of 5 stars for both staffing and quality measures, and 2 out of 5 for health inspections. The current deficiency record totals 35, including 5 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse. One fine of $24,420 is on file, and the last inspection was recent, August 28, 2025. With that many serious citations, ask pointed questions before considering a move here.
Clark Retirement Community runs 39 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.55 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 50% against a national 45.8%. The current inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse. Its last inspection was July 30, 2025. Federal ratings put health inspections and staffing at 2 out of 5 stars each, with quality measures at 3. For a family weighing this one, the staffing shortfall and the abuse-related findings are the two things worth asking about directly.
Wellspring Lutheran runs on thin staffing. At 2.10 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 46% below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 17% below its own weekday level, so a Saturday shift has even less coverage than the weekday baseline. Annual turnover of 53.3% tops the national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses cycle through faster than average. The inspection record is genuinely strong: six deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse findings, and a survey as recent as March 2026. So the care environment has been judged safe on paper, but the day-to-day hours available to deliver that care are the weak point here.
Burcham Hills runs on more nursing hours than most places, about 4.49 per resident per day against a national average near 3.86, but those hours thin out on weekends and the staff doing them turn over at 65.9% a year, well above the 45.8% norm. The inspection record is where the trouble concentrates: 53 deficiencies, seven serious enough to put residents in harm's way, five tied to abuse, and a $37,557 fine, with the most recent look coming in May 2025. A nonprofit corporation owns the 133-bed building. Strong bedside hours can't outweigh that kind of citation history, especially when the people providing the care keep leaving.
Boulder Park Terrace runs 3.70 nurse hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday coverage. The inspection record is where the real concern sits: 58 deficiencies on file, seven of them at harm or jeopardy level and ten tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was June 5, 2025, so the findings are current, not stale. That combination, below-average staffing that thins further on weekends, alongside a one-star health inspection rating, explains why this nonprofit's overall standing lands at a C. Quality and staffing measures each rate three stars, but the health inspection side drags the whole picture down.
Mymichigan Medical Center Sault runs 51 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and the federal numbers are rough across the board: one star each for staffing and quality measures, two for health inspections. The deficiency record is the part that should give you pause, 32 citations on the current record, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy to residents, and three tied to abuse. Staffing sits well below what CMS expects for a home this size, which matters most on the direct-care side. One fine totaling $2,797 is on file, and the last inspection was January 14, 2026, so the record is current. If you're considering this home, ask pointed questions about direct-care hours per resident and how the abuse-related findings were resolved.
Lake Orion Nursing Center runs lean on staff. At 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 7% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 65.2% is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for your relative are likely to change often.
The inspection record is the harder read: 22 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and a $137,640 fine. A May 2025 inspection is recent, at least. Nonprofit ownership doesn't erase any of that. Ask about weekend coverage and turnover directly before deciding.
Church Of Christ Care Center runs 129 certified beds as a church-affiliated nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.58 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the 3.86 national average, with weekends running about 5% leaner than its own weekdays. Annual turnover is 54.2% against a national 45.8%, so more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $40,940; the most recent inspection was August 2025. CMS rates it 2 out of 5 on health inspections, 2 on staffing, and 1 on quality measures, a pattern where weaker clinical outcomes line up with thinner staffing.
Bayside Village is a 59-bed nonprofit home in L'Anse that CMS has placed in its Special Focus Facility program, the designation reserved for the homes with the most persistent compliance problems. The record backs that up: 47 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and two tied to abuse, plus $176,157 in fines across two penalties. Nurse staffing sits at 3.23 hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, about 11 percent below the home's own weekday level. Inspection and quality measure ratings both come in at the bottom of CMS's scale.
