Weirton Medical Center runs a small 33-bed unit, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a 4 out of 5 on health inspections with no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level. The trouble sits elsewhere. Nurse staffing comes in at 2.50 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a third lighter, and weekends drop about 38% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover of 63.8% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which means aides and nurses are cycling through regularly. Three abuse-related deficiencies also appear on the current record. Good surveys can reflect a single visit; staffing numbers reflect every day in between.
