Imperial Care Center runs 130 certified beds in Studio City under a for-profit limited liability company, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national average, 3.84 hours per resident day against 3.86. That's the good news. The rest is harder. Staff turnover is 54.8% a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, and weekend coverage drops about 6% below the home's own weekday levels. The inspection record shows 99 deficiencies, including 8 at harm or jeopardy level and 15 tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $212,749. The most recent inspection was June 20, 2025. When you visit, ask directly how they've addressed the abuse-related findings and what weekend staffing actually looks like.
Los Feliz Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 131 certified beds in Los Angeles under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.94 hours per resident day, just barely above the national average of 3.86. That thin margin narrows further on weekends, when staffing drops about 6% below the home's own weekday levels. The inspection record is where the real concern sits: 107 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 9 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $58,006. A 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating alongside those numbers tells you regulators have found repeated, serious problems across multiple visits, not a single bad day.
York Healthcare & Wellness Centre sits on 107 certified beds in Los Angeles, run by an individual for-profit owner. The raw staffing number looks decent, 4.36 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% above the national average, but weekend coverage drops roughly 12% below its own weekday level, and CMS still rates staffing at just 2 out of 5 stars. The inspection record is the real problem: 56 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, with a $99,206 fine and the most recent inspection in May 2025. Quality measures land mid-range at 3 stars, but that paperwork score doesn't offset what surveyors actually found in the building.
Norwalk Skilled Nursing & Wellness Centre runs 99 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average of 3.86. That sounds fine until you look at weekends, when coverage drops about 9% below the home's own weekday level. The bigger problem is the inspection record: 81 deficiencies, including 6 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $72,794 and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. The most recent inspection was in July 2025. Staffing volume alone doesn't offset that pattern.
Mar Vista Country Villa reports 4.21 total nurse hours per resident day, which sounds solid next to the national average of 3.86, but weekend staffing drops about 9% from its own weekday level. The bigger issue is what inspectors have found: 64 deficiencies on the current record, including 4 at the harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, with $96,569 in fines across four penalties. That inspection record explains the 2/5 health inspection rating despite a 4/5 on quality measures. This is a for-profit limited liability company with 68 certified beds, last inspected November 1, 2024. The staffing number alone doesn't tell the story here.
Westwood Post Acute Care sits in Los Angeles with 93 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner. Its overall nurse staffing of 4.07 hours per resident day runs about 5% above the national average, but that edge fades on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 7% below its own weekday level, and CMS rates staffing just 2 out of 5, with the same score on health inspections. The inspection record is the real weight here: 87 deficiencies, including 5 at harm or jeopardy level and 1 tied to abuse, plus 2 fines totaling $110,919. Quality measures score 4 out of 5, and the most recent inspection was April 2025.
Chino Valley Health Care Center runs 102 beds in Pomona under limited-liability, for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the thing to look at first. Forty-eight deficiencies are on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse, that combination is what drives the one-star health inspection rating. Nurse staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average, and weekends run about 5% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover of 45.1% is essentially the national norm, so the instability here isn't unusually bad, but the last inspection was May 2025, and a $10,361 fine is on file.
North Valley Nursing Center sits in Tujunga with 92 certified beds, run by a for-profit corporation. The staffing numbers look strong on paper, 4.35 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% above the national average, with weekend coverage running roughly 12% lighter than weekdays. Turnover is just 17%, far below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a stable workforce. The trouble shows up in inspections: 63 deficiencies on the current record, including six at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $64,102 fine. The most recent inspection was May 22, 2026. Good staffing and a clean quality-measure score can't offset that kind of inspection history.
Vernon Healthcare Center has a staffing number that looks fine on paper, 4.23 nurse hours per resident day, about 10% above the national average, but it drops roughly 10% on weekends, so the coverage your family sees Monday isn't what shows up Saturday. The inspection record is where this home really struggles: 103 deficiencies on file, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and 15 tied to abuse. Three fines total $178,438, and the most recent inspection was in January 2026. This is a for-profit LLC with 99 beds operating under a 1-star health inspection rating despite decent quality scores. Ask hard questions about the abuse deficiencies and weekend staffing before you consider it.
Long Beach Healthcare Center runs 154 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.13 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average of 3.86. But weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The bigger issue is the inspection record: 104 deficiencies, including 5 at the harm or jeopardy level and 15 tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $74,841 and a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Staff turnover (45.7%) is essentially the national average (45.8%). Quality measures rate 4 out of 5, but that doesn't offset a documented history this serious.
West Valley Post Acute sits in West Hills with 128 certified beds, run by a for-profit limited liability company. The staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, and turnover of 22% is roughly half the national rate, a sign people stay. But weekends run about 9% leaner than weekdays, and the inspection record is where the trouble lives: 83 deficiencies on file, three at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, and $71,200 in fines. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Strong daily staffing can't offset that kind of enforcement history.
New Vista runs a for-profit operation with 116 beds, and the nurse staffing number looks good on paper: 5.18 hours per resident day, about a third above the national average. The catch is who's delivering that care. Turnover sits at 68.6%, roughly half again the national rate, so the people at the bedside keep changing, and weekend coverage drops about 8% below the home's own weekday level.
The inspection record is the harder problem: 124 deficiencies on file, three serious enough to put residents in harm's way, nine tied to abuse, and eight fines totaling over $52,000. A five-star quality measure score sits alongside a one-star inspection rating. The most recent look came in February 2026.
Inglewood Health Care Center runs 99 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its staffing sits at 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping about 5% below its own weekday level. Turnover is 34.3%, better than the national 45.8%, so the same faces are more likely to stay. The trouble sits in the inspection record: 81 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus $27,356 in fines and a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, even though quality measures scored 5 out of 5. The most recent inspection was December 5, 2025.
North Long Beach Post Acute runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits just above the national average, 3.93 nurse hours per resident day versus 3.86 nationally, though weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the bigger issue: 51.4% of staff leave annually, against a 45.8% national rate, which means the people caring for your family member are often new. The inspection record is where this home struggles most, with 86 deficiencies on file, including 4 at harm or jeopardy level and 8 abuse-related, plus two fines totaling $69,421. The most recent inspection was June 26, 2025, so that record is current.
Sunland Post Acute has the staffing most families hope for: 4.53 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent above the national average, with a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating and turnover at 44.1 percent, slightly better than the national 45.8. The problem sits elsewhere. The health inspection rating is 1 out of 5, with 115 deficiencies on the current record, including 5 at the harm or jeopardy level and 8 abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $240,281, serious money, serious findings. A 4-out-of-5 quality measure score can look reassuring, but that rating draws on self-reported data. Staffing alone can't offset a record like this, and the most recent inspection, in December 2025, kept those concerns current.
Tarzana Health and Rehabilitation Center has 126 deficiencies on its current record, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse. That's the number that matters most here, and it's why CMS has placed this for-profit, LLC-owned home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the homes with the worst inspection histories. Staffing looks decent on paper at 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, and turnover at 26.5% is well below the national 45.8%. But weekend coverage drops about 6% below weekday levels, and two fines totaling $95,254 sit on the record. The last inspection was June 5, 2025.
Live Oak Rehab Center runs 99 beds under corporate ownership in San Gabriel. The nurse staffing number looks decent on paper, 4.27 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, but weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 56.7% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that care keep changing. The inspection record is where things get harder to explain away: 86 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, eight abuse-related, one fine of $27,425, and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. Quality measures score well, but a recent April 2026 inspection means that history is current, not old.
Long Beach Care Center runs 4.43 nurse hours per resident day, about 15% above the national average of 3.86, but that staffing still only earns two stars from CMS, and weekend coverage dips roughly 4% below its own weekday levels. The real problem sits in its inspection record: 78 deficiencies, including 10 tied to abuse and 3 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, with $54,834 in fines across two cases. A recent September 2025 inspection doesn't erase that history. Quality measures look strong at four stars, yet strong numbers on paper can't outweigh a pattern this persistent.
Pacific Villa runs about 4.06 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 5% above the national average, and its 36.7% turnover is meaningfully better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere. Those numbers matter, but the inspection record is what stands out: 79 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and 16 abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $41,809. A last inspection in February 2026 means the record is current, not stale. That mix explains a C grade: decent daily care hours and steadier-than-average staffing, undercut by a long and serious enforcement history at a for-profit, individually owned home. Weekend coverage runs about 8% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about directly.
Studebaker Healthcare Center is a 99-bed for-profit in Norwalk, and the staffing numbers are the bright spot: 4.48 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average, with weekend coverage about 11% thinner than weekdays. Turnover runs 44.1%, basically in line with the national figure. The trouble sits on the inspection side. A one-star health inspection rating comes with 108 deficiencies on the current record, including nine tied to abuse and one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level. One fine totaling $27,378 is on file, and the most recent inspection was February 2026. Strong hands-on care, weak compliance history, that's the tradeoff to weigh.
