0

Briarcliffe Manor runs 4.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 21% above the national average, and keeps 22.6% annual turnover against a national rate near 46%, that retention matters more than any single number here, because consistent caregivers know the residents. Weekend staffing dips about 10% below its own weekday levels, which is worth asking about directly. Five deficiencies on the current record, none causing harm, none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. For-profit corporate ownership, 122 beds, and top marks from CMS across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing. The record shows steady, well-staffed care rather than a place limping along.

Staff turnover

Roberts Health Centre in North Kingstown runs on 4.80 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the national average, and its weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 36.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record: nine deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none abuse-related, and the last survey was May 2026. That mix of strong staffing and a handful of real problems is what a family should weigh, ask specifically what those two harm-level findings involved and how they were corrected.

Nurse staffing at Tockwotton On The Waterfront runs 4.86 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and the weekend drop of about 16% is worth asking about directly, that's when families tend to visit and notice. Staff turnover sits at 29.1%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers learn residents' routines. The trade-off shows in the inspection record: 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a single fine of $8,628. That one harm-level finding is the number to press the administrator on, what happened, and what changed afterward.

Nurse staffing at Hattie Ide Chaffee Home runs 5.39 hours per resident day, roughly 40% above the national average, and weekends hold within about 10% of weekday coverage, a gap that trips up many homes. Staff turnover sits at 34.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record: 19 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a $40,295 fine. That combination, strong daily staffing, thinner safety and compliance results, is what pulls the score down despite the five-star staffing rating.

Cedar Crest runs a 156-bed for-profit operation in Cranston, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 4.10 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, with a 5/5 CMS staffing star. Turnover sits at 27%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about. The inspection record is where it gets complicated, 22 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $14,433 fine. The most recent inspection was September 2025, so the record is current.

Cherry Hill Manor in Johnston runs on 4.07 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip roughly 12% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 37.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record is clean where it counts: 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse citations, and one fine of $6,201. Its last inspection was January 2026, so the picture is current, and CMS rates it 5 stars for both health inspections and quality measures. Corporate for-profit ownership is the one thing to keep an eye on.

Evergreen House runs 160 certified beds in East Providence under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.92 hours per resident day, slightly above the national figure of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so families should ask how that gap gets managed. Annual turnover is 24.5%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests less churn than most places. Inspectors were last on site in July 2025 and logged 21 deficiencies, none causing harm or jeopardy; two were abuse-related. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 4 out of 5.

Harris Health Center is a small for-profit home on the East Side of Providence County, just 31 beds, run by a limited liability company. Its strongest number is turnover: 28% of nursing staff leave each year, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. But the current inspection record carries 33 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a $10,276 fine. Staffing sits at 3.52 hours per resident day, about 9% below the national average, and weekends run roughly 4% thinner than weekdays. A recent inspection in January 2026 means the record is current, not stale.

Adviniacare Newport runs 114 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 8 percent below its own weekday staffing, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. The tradeoff is retention: 26 percent annual turnover beats the 45.8 percent national figure, meaning the aides you meet are more likely to still be there next year. What pulls the record down is the inspection side, 41 deficiencies on file, including two at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $16,801 fine. The most recent inspection was December 19, 2025, so that picture is current. Quality measures score well; the compliance history is the concern.

Alpine Nursing Home runs about 60 beds in Coventry under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits right around the national mark, 3.80 nurse hours per resident day versus 3.86 nationally, though weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover lands at 42.9%, a touch better than the 45.8% national average. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations, and the most recent survey came in March 2025. A four-star inspection rating alongside that harm-level finding is worth asking about directly, since one deficiency at that severity matters more than the raw count suggests.

Jeanne Jugan Residence runs on 5.93 nurse hours per resident per day, well above the 3.86 national average, and weekends barely dip from weekday coverage, about 5%. Its last inspection, in April 2026, turned up three deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the health inspection rating sits at the top of the scale. The quality measure rating is where it thins out, landing at 2 of 5, so the clinical numbers families often weigh don't match the staffing strength. As a nonprofit with 49 beds, it's small enough that nurse coverage translates directly to the floor. Ask what's driving the quality measures before you decide.

Grandview Center in Cumberland runs 72 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.68 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday level, so care thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 30% against a national average near 46%, meaning aides and nurses here stick around longer than at most homes. The inspection record shows 24 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in August 2025. Quality measures score well and inspections are solid; staffing is the number pulling the overall picture down.

John Clarke Senior Living runs a leaner nursing floor than most, 3.47 hours of nurse staffing per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly another 10% below its own weekday coverage. The trade-off looks deliberate: turnover sits at 25.5% while the country averages 45.8%, so the aides and nurses here tend to stay. The home carries four deficiencies on its current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and no abuse citations. Inspections came in April 2026. If the C grade gives you pause, the numbers behind it are thin coverage and one real lapse, not a pattern of churn.

Eastgate runs on leaner nursing hours than most homes, 3.35 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage. What offsets that is stability: turnover sits at 36.4%, well under the 45.8% national figure, and a recent inspection in February 2026 turned up 12 deficiencies with none at the harm level and none tied to abuse. The inspection and quality measure ratings both came back at the top of CMS's scale, and the state survey was fresh enough to reflect how the place runs now. For a 60-bed for-profit, that's a cleaner record than the staffing number alone would suggest.

Steere House runs on a nonprofit model with 120 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.64 hours per resident day, about 20% above the national average of 3.86. That's meaningful coverage, though weekends dip roughly 11% below its own weekday level, so the floor gets thinner when families tend to visit. The bigger story is consistency: annual turnover of 16.7% against a national average of 45.8% suggests a stable workforce that knows its residents. But the inspection record pulls this down. Thirteen deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and three fines totaling $85,654. The most recent inspection was March 5, 2026. Strong staffing and low turnover are real strengths, they just don't erase four harm-level findings.

Elmwood runs leaner on nursing hours than most homes, 3.33 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get thinner still, dropping about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. That's the kind of pattern families notice on a Saturday afternoon when call lights take longer to answer. Staff turnover sits at 27.5%, well under the national 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Eighteen deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related. A September 2025 inspection is recent, and the 2/5 quality measure rating is the number worth asking about on a tour.

Woonsocket Health Center gets decent marks on its last two inspections, which is why its inspection and quality scores sit at four out of five stars. The trouble is underneath: 21 deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, is more than you'd want to see at a home with recent survey activity. Nurse staffing runs 3.52 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 7% below the home's own weekday staffing. For a 150-bed for-profit run by a corporation, that pattern matters, fewer hands on evenings and weekends is when problems tend to surface.

Kent Regency Center runs 153 certified beds in Warwick under corporate ownership, and the numbers suggest a home that inspects well but runs lean on the floor. State surveyors gave it four stars for health inspections and quality measures, with 20 deficiencies on record and none rising to harm or jeopardy. Staffing tells a different story: 3.55 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday pace. The encouraging piece is turnover at 28.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people who are there tend to stay. Its last inspection was September 2025.

Holiday Retirement Home in Manville runs 170 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits around 4.26 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 4% below its own weekday levels, and turnover lands at 44.7%, nearly identical to the national 45.8%. The trouble shows up in inspections: a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 26 deficiencies on the current record, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. One fine totaling $46,118 has been levied, and the last inspection was June 13, 2025. Adequate staffing, real compliance problems.

Warren Center runs 63 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national mark, 3.89 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationwide. That's basically even, though weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage, which is worth asking about if your family member needs care on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is the stronger piece here: 21 deficiencies logged, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, with the last state visit in September 2025. Staff turnover of 44.2% is slightly better than the 45.8% national average, so the team isn't bleeding people faster than typical. Nothing here is alarming, but nothing stands out as exceptional either.
