Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Morton Bakar Center in Hayward holds 97 certified beds and is run by a for-profit corporation. Its most striking number is staff retention: turnover sits at 14.9%, well under the 45.8% national average, which matters because consistent caregivers know their residents. Total nurse staffing comes in at 3.73 hours per resident day, just under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 14% lighter than weekdays, a dip worth asking about. The inspection record is clean where it counts: four deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the last inspection in September 2024.

Driftwood Healthcare Center - Hayward

CMS 3/588 bedsFor-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
4.93 /day
Staff turnover
30%
Serious cites
0

Driftwood Healthcare Center runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.93 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and staff tend to stay, with turnover at 30.3% versus 45.8% nationally. Weekend coverage slips only slightly below weekday levels. The trouble sits on the inspection side: 39 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus five fines totaling $24,666 and a two-star health inspection rating. That last inspection was August 2024, so the record is fairly recent. Quality measures score well, but the enforcement history is the part worth asking about directly.

Hayward Gardens Post Acute

Staff turnover
31%
Serious cites

Hayward Gardens runs on 4.27 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 30.6% is well below the 45.8% national figure, that combination is harder to find than the bed count suggests. The trade-off sits in the inspection record: 32 deficiencies on file, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekday levels, which matters for a 75-bed for-profit home where families often visit on Saturdays and Sundays. The last inspection was in May 2026, so the record is current rather than stale.

Emmanuel Post Acute Care in Hayward runs 99 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.94 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover is 49.5%, higher than the 45.8% national average, and the inspection record shows 39 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related. CMS gave it 2 out of 5 stars for health inspections but 5 out of 5 for quality measures, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. The pattern here is strong clinical scores offset by a thinner margin on safety and consistency.

Vista Post Acute

CMS 4/571 bedsFor-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
3.97 /day
Staff turnover
28%

Vista Post Acute runs 71 beds in Hayward under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers here are steadier than most. Nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 12% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits primarily on Saturdays and Sundays. The standout figure is turnover: 28% against a national average near 46%, meaning the people caring for residents are more likely to still be there next year. Inspections in January 2025 turned up 28 deficiencies, but none caused harm or jeopardy and none involved abuse.

Serenethos Care Center, Llc

CMS 5/536 bedsFor-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
3.99 /day
Staff turnover
36%
Serious cites
0

Serenethos runs a 36-bed for-profit home in Hayward, and the staffing picture is decent but not deep: 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 3% above the national average, with weekends about 6% thinner than weekdays. That modest cushion matters in a building this small, where one call-out shifts the whole floor. Turnover sits at 36.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stick around longer here than at the typical home. Inspections came back clean enough for a 5-star health rating in June 2025, but the record still carries 25 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to risk harm. No abuse findings. Good care, some real scars underneath.

We Care Skilled Nursing Facility

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

We Care Skilled Nursing Facility is a small, for-profit home in Hayward, 28 beds, that scores well on inspections and quality measures but sits closer to average on staffing. Its 3.90 nurse hours per resident day edges the national figure of 3.86 by roughly 1%, and weekend coverage dips about 5% below its own weekday level, so care may thin out when families visit. Annual turnover of 51.5% is higher than the 45.8% national average, meaning aides and nurses cycle through faster than typical. The record shows 27 deficiencies, but none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in February 2025.

Hayward Hills Health Care Center

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
56%

Hayward Hills is run by a for-profit partnership and holds 74 certified beds in Alameda County. Nurse staffing sits at 4.21 hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average, though weekends run roughly 5% thinner than weekdays, worth knowing if you're planning visits or asking who's on duty Saturday. The bigger number is turnover: 56.1% of staff leave within a year, against 45.8% nationally, which matters for whether your mother sees the same aides more than once. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in August 2024. Quality and staffing each earned 4 of 5 stars; inspections earned 3.

St Francis Healthcare Center runs 62 certified beds in Hayward under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.28 hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average of 3.86. That headline number deserves a caveat: weekend coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday levels, so care on Saturdays and Sundays looks thinner than the weekly average suggests. Staff turnover is 52.9%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because new faces mean less continuity for residents. The current record shows 21 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related. The most recent inspection was April 2026.

Eden Healthcare Center

Eden Healthcare Center runs 121 certified beds in Hayward under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits just barely above the national average, 3.91 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. The more telling number is turnover: 27.6% versus a national average of 45.8%, meaning workers here tend to stay. But the inspection record is where the picture darkens. Fifty-six deficiencies are on file, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with one fine of $30,870. The most recent inspection was October 2024. Strong retention and decent quality scores don't erase that many serious findings.

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Hayward Post Acute runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its recent inspection history is the strongest part of the picture, a December 2025 survey with 32 deficiencies on record but none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. Staffing is where it slips: 3.78 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average of 3.86, weekends run about 6% lighter than weekdays, and turnover hits 50% against a national 45.8%. So you have a home that inspects well and measures decently on quality, but churns staff faster than average and thins out on weekends. Worth asking how they cover Saturday and Sunday.

Hayward Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 99 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.06 hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average of 3.86. That's the strongest part of the picture, though weekend coverage drops about 9% below what the home staffs on weekdays. The inspection record is where the numbers get harder to shrug off: 24 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one flagged as abuse-related. The last full inspection was July 2023, so that record has had time to age without a fresh look. Worth asking the administrator directly what changed after that harm-level finding.

Bethesda Home in Hayward is a small church-affiliated nonprofit with 40 beds, and its inspection record is genuinely solid: 20 deficiencies on file, but none rose to harm or jeopardy, and none involved abuse. Quality measures hold at 4 out of 5 stars too, so residents' clinical outcomes look reasonable on paper. The staffing number is where the story turns. One star out of five means nurse and aide hours fall well below what CMS expects for a building this size, that's the single biggest drag on the score, and it matters most on nights and weekends when needs don't pause. Its last inspection was October 2024, so the record is current. Ask about actual daily aide coverage before you decide.

St Anthony Care Center

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

St. Anthony Care Center is a 30-bed for-profit home in Hayward, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a perfect health inspection rating, with all 21 deficiencies on file falling below the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse. Staffing is where it gets shakier: 3.92 nurse hours per resident day sits just above the national average of 3.86, but the staffing rating is only 2 out of 5, weekend coverage dips below weekday levels, and turnover runs 50 percent against a national 45.8. One fine totaling $51,355 is on record. The last inspection was October 2024. Small homes can be uneven this way, so ask directly about weekend nurse coverage and how long the current director of nursing has been there.

Golden Harbor runs 99 certified beds in Hayward under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is more mixed than the raw number suggests. Total nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, about 3% above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 7% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 45 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $40,025. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection ratings both sit at 2 out of 5.

Sage Post Acute runs 99 certified beds in Hayward, and the staffing numbers are the clearest thing to look at here. At 3.30 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 15% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip a further 3% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover is 55% against a national 45.8%, which means aides and nurses are cycling through steadily. The inspection record shows 42 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $4,938. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current. Individual, for-profit ownership.
