Staff turnover

Callaway Good Life Center runs 38 beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average, about 2% higher per resident day. That sounds fine until you look at weekends, which run roughly 14% thinner than weekdays. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 28 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $34,608. Its last inspection was April 2026. The quality measure rating lands at 3 out of 5, staffing 3 out of 5, and health inspection 1 out of 5, that last number is the one worth asking the administrator about directly before you decide anything.

St. Joseph's Villa runs a nonprofit shop in David City with 58 beds, and the numbers show a home that's getting by rather than standing out. Nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, just under the national average, and weekends drop about 14% below its own weekday coverage, a gap families often feel on Saturday and Sunday. Staff turnover of 52.9% runs well above the national 45.8%, which matters because familiar faces are hard to keep when half the team leaves each year. Fourteen deficiencies sit on the current record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with a $27,115 fine attached. The most recent inspection was in August 2025.

Pole Creek Estates runs 63 certified beds in Sidney under nonprofit ownership, and its 2.86 nurse hours per resident day sit about 26% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly another 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 56.5% against a national 45.8%, that combination is where the C comes from, even though CMS gives staffing 4 of 5 stars. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, and the last survey was July 17, 2025.

Good Samaritan Society - St John's runs 56 certified beds in Kearney under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice. At 3.40 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 12% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 18% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 51.1% runs above the 45.8% national figure, which means many of the people providing that care are still new to the building. The inspection record shows 29 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two related to abuse, with the most recent survey dated April 2026.

Christian Homes in Holdrege runs 86 beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its staffing sits at 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday coverage, which matters when residents need help on a Saturday. Annual turnover is 58.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so aides and nurses are cycling through faster than average. The inspection record carries 25 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but three tied to abuse, and the last survey was March 2026. CMS rates its health inspection, quality measures, and staffing each at 2, 1, and 2 stars out of five. Nothing here is dangerous, but the pattern is thin coverage and high churn.

Park View Haven runs about 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, and weekends dip roughly 11% below its own weekday numbers. That's the good news. The trouble sits elsewhere: staff turnover is 72.2% against a 45.8% national average, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. Its current record carries 13 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three abuse-related, plus a $34,512 fine. The last inspection was April 2026, so the picture is recent. A 34-bed nonprofit in rural Cedar County can be a genuinely good fit for the right family, but ask hard questions about who's actually on shift, especially weekends.

Jefferson Community Health & Life Gardenside is a 39-bed nonprofit in Fairbury, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a five-star health inspection rating, with five deficiencies on file and none rising to actual harm or jeopardy. The staffing number is where it falls apart. At 0.14 nurse hours per resident per day, this home reports roughly 96 percent less nursing time than the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about a third thinner than its own weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 53.3 percent against a national 45.8. Two of those five deficiencies are abuse-related, which matters more at a home this small. A clean inspection and almost no reported nursing hours can both be true at once, ask which one reflects daily life there.

Northfield Retirement Communities Care Center runs 66 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its overall nurse staffing of 3.88 hours per resident day sits roughly 1% above the national average of 3.86. That headline number looks fine until you notice weekends run about 16% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover hits 65.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new to the building. The current record carries 28 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, with the last inspection in May 2025. CMS gives the home one star each for health inspections and staffing, two for quality measures.

Gold Crest is a 52-bed nonprofit home in Adams that does two things well and one thing badly. Its last inspection, in March 2025, produced a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating and 12 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. Quality measures also score 4 out of 5. The problem is staffing: 0.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 83 percent below the national average of 3.86, which is why the staffing rating sits at 1 out of 5. Annual turnover of 66.7 percent is well above the 45.8 percent national figure, so even that thin coverage keeps changing faces.

Good Samaritan Society - St Luke's Village runs 60 certified beds in Kearney as a nonprofit, and the numbers behind its federal ratings are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 3.52 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 9% thinner, and weekends dip about 14% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Staff turnover is 64.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care change often. The inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with one fine of $11,654. CMS scored the home 1 out of 5 on both health inspections and quality measures, and 2 out of 5 on staffing. That last inspection was April 14, 2026.

Crowell Memorial Home runs a nonprofit operation with 74 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.11 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average. That's the strongest number here, though weekends dip about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage. The harder facts are elsewhere. Staff turnover hit 90.5% over the past year, about double the national rate of 45.8%, meaning the people providing that care are largely new and constantly changing. The current inspection record carries 30 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse. State inspectors were last on site in June 2025, and the health inspection rating of 2 out of 5 reflects what they found.

Good Samaritan Society - Grand Island Village runs 67 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday numbers, so the thinnest coverage lands when families are most likely to visit. The 63.8% annual turnover is the number that stands out most: well above the 45.8% national figure, which means a good share of the people caring for residents are still learning the building. Its record shows 22 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with a single $10,033 fine. The last inspection was 2025-12-30, so the picture is current.

Clarkson Community Care Center runs on 1.43 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 63% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage shows up in the numbers: 24 deficiencies on the current record, including three tied to abuse and one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, plus a $15,593 fine. The last inspection was September 3, 2025, so the record is recent. This is a small nonprofit home in Colfax County, but nonprofit status isn't protecting residents here, low staffing and repeat problems are what the federal data actually shows.

Western Sky Community Care Center is a small nonprofit home in Grant, and its record is about as clean as it gets: zero deficiencies on the current survey, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and nothing abuse-related. The last inspection wrapped up in April 2026, which is recent enough that those results reflect how the place actually runs right now. With 44 certified beds, it's the kind of size where staff know every resident by name, and nonprofit ownership tends to mean decisions get made locally rather than by a distant chain. If you're weighing this one for a family member, the inspection history and ownership together are the strongest things it has going for it.
