Marion Regional Nursing Home

Hamilton, AL · Marion County

CMS 3/579 bedsNon-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
4.26 /day
Staff turnover
21%
Serious cites
0

Marion Regional runs a tight ship on staffing. At 4.26 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 10% above the national average, and a 20.6% turnover rate is less than half the national figure of 45.8%, that kind of stability usually means residents see the same faces. Weekends dip about 14% below the home's own weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits then. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 13 deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related, and a 2-star health inspection rating from CMS. None of those deficiencies rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was February 2025, so the record is current. A nonprofit operator with strong staffing and a recent, mostly low-level survey history.

Washington County Nursing Home

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
25%
Serious cites
0

Washington County Nursing Home runs on numbers that hold up. Nurse staffing sits around 4.61 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth above the national figure, and weekend coverage dips about 16 percent from weekday levels, a gap worth asking about, since that's when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 25.3 percent, well under the national 45.8 percent, which suggests people stay. The one mark against the place is on the inspection side: a single deficiency on record, abuse-related but not at harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection was June 2021, so that record is getting old. County-owned, 88 beds.

Staff turnover
41%

Arbor Woods runs leaner on risk than most homes its size. Its 5.07 nurse hours per resident day sit about a third above the national average, which is the kind of number that shows up as more hands on the floor, though weekends dip roughly 18% below weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Turnover at 40.7% is a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The current record carries just two deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. The one thing to weigh: that last inspection was in May 2022, so you're looking at a fairly old snapshot of how it's actually running today.

Staff turnover

Willowbrooke runs on a non-profit model with nurse staffing at 4.05 hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 14.3% against a national 45.8%. That retention number matters more than it might look, consistent caregivers know the residents. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, which is common but worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays. Four deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, though the last inspection was May 2022, so the picture is a few years old. Quality and staffing both rate 5 out of 5 from CMS; health inspection sits at 3.

Traylor Retirement Community runs 4.14 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, and its turnover sits below the national figure at 40.8%. Weekend staffing, though, drops about 18% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. The 10 deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in December 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale. Corporate for-profit ownership and a 2/5 inspection rating are the weaker spots, while the quality and staffing ratings both come in at 5/5.

Fayette Medical Center's long-term care unit runs on county ownership and a payroll that stays put, 26.7% turnover against a national average near 46% means the aides and nurses here are unusually likely to still be around next year. Nurse staffing sits at 4.47 hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national figure, though weekends drop about that same amount below the home's own weekday pace, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Ten deficiencies sit on the record with none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and the last full inspection was in May 2021, worth asking what's been surveyed since.

Lauderdale Christian runs about 4.54 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 18% above the national average, and that staffing shows up in the CMS star ratings, five out of five there. It's a church-affiliated nonprofit with 58 beds, and the inspection record is short: three deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last state visit in September 2023. Staff turnover sits at 43.8%, which is a touch better than the national 45.8% but still means a lot of churn. One thing worth asking about: weekend staffing runs about 15% below its own weekday level, so if you're planning visits or care conferences for Saturdays and Sundays, know that the floor is thinner then.

Altoona Health & Rehab

Altoona, AL · Etowah County

Altoona Health & Rehab runs 50 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is its clearest strength: 3.90 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping about 8% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 31.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether residents see familiar faces. The tradeoff is oversight. Five deficiencies sit on the current record with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, but the last inspection dates to June 2022 and the health inspection rating is 2 of 5. Quality measures score 4 of 5. Stable staff, thin recent inspection history.

Staff turnover

Serious cites

Parkwood runs on more nurse hours than most homes, 4.11 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stick around, with turnover at 35.8% compared to roughly 46% nationally. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 15% below what the building staffs on weekdays. Inspectors logged 14 deficiencies on the current record, two of them abuse-related, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, and the most recent visit was in February 2026. It's a for-profit limited liability company, 74 beds, sitting in the middle of the pack on inspections while scoring at the top on quality measures and staffing.

Staff turnover
27%
Serious cites

Evergreen Nursing Home runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.44 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 27.3% versus 45.8% nationally. That kind of retention usually shows up in how consistently residents get the same caregivers. Two things to keep in mind: weekend staffing drops about 19% below weekday levels, so coverage is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays, and the last state inspection was in March 2020, meaning the record you're looking at is several years old. Six deficiencies on file, none involving harm or abuse. Corporate-owned, 61 beds.

Cleburne County Nursing Home runs on county government ownership, and the numbers show it. Nurse staffing sits at 4.32 hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend staffing drops about 23% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record carries just 2 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though 1 is abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Staff turnover is 42.2%, better than the national 45.8% but still meaning nearly half the workforce turns over. The last inspection was March 2022, so the record you're reading is nearly three years old.

Terrace Manor runs about 4.01 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 4% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 37.3% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, a sign people tend to stay. The tradeoff is weekends, when staffing drops about 19% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. Its record shows four deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related. One thing worth asking about directly: the last inspection was August 2021, so that clean-looking record is several years old.

Nurse hours

Serious cites
0

Wiregrass Rehabilitation Center & Nursing Home is county-owned, which is unusual in Alabama and tends to mean steadier budgets than the for-profit chains. Its 3.86 nurse hours per resident day sits right at the national average, though weekends run about 15 percent lighter than weekdays, so ask how that gap gets covered. Staff turnover is 33.8 percent against a national 45.8, lower, which usually means more familiar faces. Ten deficiencies are on record, none at harm level, none abuse-related, and the last full inspection was March 2022, so the picture is a few years old. The quality and staffing stars look solid; the three-star inspection rating is what holds it back.

Englewood Health Care Center runs 5.28 nurse hours per resident per day, about 37% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 34.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning fewer caregivers cycling out the door than is typical. Weekend staffing does drop roughly 19% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows four deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The last full inspection was June 14, 2021, so you're looking at a four-year-old snapshot of the building's compliance.

Serious cites

Willowbrooke runs on 4.49 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent more than the national average, and that staffing shows up clearly in its five-star CMS staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips only about 4 percent below weekdays, so care doesn't thin out much when families visit. The trade-offs sit elsewhere: ten deficiencies on the current record, including two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy. Its last inspection was April 2021, so that record is getting old and may not reflect today's conditions. Quality measures score well at four stars. Nonprofit ownership under a corporation. The strongest argument here is hands-on time; the open question is what a fresh inspection would find.

Southern Springs runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, 4.09 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its weekend staffing only dips about 14% below weekday levels, which matters because weekend gaps are where a lot of problems hide. Staff turnover sits at 22.4%, roughly half the national rate of 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The tradeoffs: seven deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection was back in August 2022. For-profit corporate ownership, 123 beds.

Woodhaven Manor runs on a steady, well-staffed floor: 3.84 nurse hours per resident day sits essentially even with the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 24% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about since that's when families often visit. Turnover at 27.3% is dramatically better than the 45.8% national average, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The current record shows a single deficiency, none at harm level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was March 2022, over three years ago as of today, which means that clean record is somewhat dated. A for-profit corporation owns the 75-bed home.

Crowne Health Care Of Citronelle runs on 4.55 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 18 percent more than the national average, and its last health inspection in June 2023 closed with no deficiencies at all, none at the harm level, none tied to abuse. Staff turnover sits at 41.8 percent, which is lower than the 45.8 percent national figure but still high enough that you should ask how they keep consistent caregivers on the floor. The one thing to look at closely is weekends, when staffing drops about 15 percent below its own weekday level. If your family member needs help most on Saturday and Sunday, ask who is actually there.

Aliceville Manor runs about 3.88 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a hair above the national average, with weekends dropping about 14% below its own weekday staffing. The turnover picture is better than most: 38.3% against a national average of 45.8%, so more of the people caring for residents tend to stick around. On the inspection side, there are 8 deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last full inspection was in June 2023. This is a for-profit corporate home with 100 certified beds, and the staffing and quality measure ratings both land at 4 out of 5, staffing at 5.

Albertville Nursing Home runs on unusually heavy staffing for a for-profit corporate home, 5.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, which is why its staffing rating tops out. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekdays, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 46%, essentially the national average, so the extra hours don't come with unusual churn. Nine deficiencies are on record with nothing at the harm or abuse level, and the last inspection was November 2019, a long stretch without a fresh look, worth asking about directly.
