Grass Valley Healthcare Center runs 86 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.37 hours per resident day, about 13% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real margin, though weekends dip roughly 11% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. Annual turnover of 40.9% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The record isn't clean: 23 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. The last inspection was September 2025, so the picture is current. Staffing and quality measures both rated 4 out of 5; health inspections came in at 3.

Guardian Rehabilitation Hospital sits in Los Angeles with 93 certified beds and a corporate for-profit owner. The staffing numbers are the strongest part of the story: 4.87 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, with turnover at 31.2% against a national 45.8%, so people are staying longer than at the typical home. Weekends run about 12% leaner than weekdays, which is worth asking about. Against that, the current inspection record carries 49 deficiencies, four tied to abuse, and one fine of $32,040. None of the deficiencies reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was in March 2026, so the record is recent.

Escondido Post Acute runs 180 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.78 nurse hours per resident day, about 2% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 4% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. What stands out is retention: 37.9% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, which means more familiar faces than most places. The record shows 42 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. Inspectors were last on site in May 2025, and the quality measure rating is strong while staffing lands mid-range.

San Luis Post Acute Center sits in San Luis Obispo with 162 certified beds under corporate ownership. Its 4.44 nurse hours per resident day runs about 15% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing dips roughly 8% below weekday levels, a gap worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is the stronger story: a recent March 2025 survey, 16 deficiencies on file but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. Turnover lands at 45.5%, essentially matching the national 45.8%. For-profit ownership and a solid survey history together.

Broadway Healthcare Center runs 59 beds in San Gabriel under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national average of 3.86 nurse hours per resident day, with weekends about 3% thinner than weekdays. What stands out is retention: 21.4% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record, 43 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with a single $3,145 fine. The most recent inspection was February 2026. Quality measures rate well above average, so the day-to-day care looks steadier than that paper trail suggests.

Palm Springs Healthcare & Rehabilitation Center runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.10 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips modestly, about 8% below weekday levels, while annual turnover of 41.2% comes in slightly under the national 45.8%. The current inspection record shows 31 deficiencies but none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, with the most recent survey completed in December 2024. Its CMS stars line up evenly across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, each at 4 out of 5.

San Leandro Healthcare Center runs 62 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.14 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 37.5%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your family sees the same faces. The current record shows 27 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in November 2024. Inspections, quality measures, and staffing each landed at 4 out of 5 stars.

Lake Merritt Healthcare Center runs on a for-profit LLC structure with 53 certified beds, and its staffing is the clearest strength: 4.16 nurse hours per resident day sits about 8% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping roughly 9% below its own weekday level. Turnover at 28.6% is well under the national 45.8%. The inspection record is where the picture darkens, 44 deficiencies on file, three tied to abuse, and a 2/5 health inspection rating, though none reached harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was October 2024. A 4/5 staffing rating paired with a 2/5 inspection rating tells you the hands are there but the compliance history has been rougher than average.

Fremont Healthcare Center runs 115 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and the staffing numbers here are the real story: 4.12 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 7% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 36%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record, 30 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse, plus one fine of $12,051. The most recent inspection was November 2025. Quality measures score well and staffing is strong; the survey history is where a family should ask questions.

Willows Post Acute runs 79 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean for a home this size: 20 deficiencies on the books, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, with a survey completed in April 2025. The weaker spot is staffing. At 3.77 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 5% below its own weekday level, a gap families should ask about directly, since needs don't pause on Saturdays. Turnover at 38.6% is better than the 45.8% national figure. Quality measures score strongly; direct-care hours are the number to watch.

Vineyard Hills runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.89 per resident per day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and that shows up in its four-out-of-five staffing rating. It's not perfect coverage, though: weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover sits at 48.1%, a touch above the national figure, so the faces around a resident change fairly often. On the regulatory side, the record is clean where it matters most. Sixteen deficiencies on the current file, but none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, with a five-star health inspection rating and a survey completed in June 2025. Corporate-owned and Medicare-certified for 99 beds.

Lakeport Post Acute runs leaner than most homes on nurse staffing, 3.51 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover at 29.8% is notably better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn among the people actually providing care. The inspection record is the harder read: 49 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a two-star health inspection rating, though the most recent inspection came in June 2025. Quality measures score well, but that reflects resident outcomes on paper, not how consistently the building is staffed or cited.

Alta Gardens runs 129 certified beds in Garden Grove under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits essentially at the national average, 3.87 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. Weekends run about 7% leaner than weekdays, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is where it stands apart: 20.4% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in oversight. Inspectors last visited in February 2026 and logged 58 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a single $8,278 fine. Quality measures score well; the inspection record is the weaker half.

Stoney Point runs 132 beds in Chatsworth under for-profit LLC ownership, and its record is a split picture. Nurse staffing sits at 3.78 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. What stands out is turnover: 21.2% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning this staff largely stays put. Against that, the current inspection record carries 53 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. State surveyors have cited real problems here, even as the same residents' quality measures score well.

The Shores Post-Acute runs 305 beds in San Diego under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.58 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage barely dips from weekday levels, and turnover is 26.4%, well below the national 45.8%, so the hands-on care is at least consistent week to week. The inspection record is where it gets messier: 61 deficiencies on file, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. State surveyors last visited in December 2024, so that history is fairly current. Solid marks on quality measures and staffing balance against a long citation list, a mixed picture, not a clear yes or no.

Alameda Care Center in Burbank runs 89 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than average: 4.00 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86, with a 35.2% turnover rate that's well below the 45.8% national figure. Weekends dip about 8% below weekday staffing, but that's a modest gap. The real concern sits on the inspection side. A 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 88 total deficiencies, and seven abuse-related citations on the current record point to persistent problems with how care is delivered and monitored, even though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so that record is current.

Vista Real Post Acute sits in Beaumont with 57 beds and a for-profit LLC owner, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Staffing runs 4.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, with turnover at 28.8%, well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning aides and nurses tend to stay. But weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday staffing, and the inspection record carries 43 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse. A June 2025 inspection is recent, and the 3/5 health inspection rating reflects that record even as quality measures score 5/5. Ask about weekend coverage and how those abuse-related findings were resolved.

Country Crest runs 4.70 nurse hours per resident day, about 22% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 53.7% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that above-average care keep changing. The current record shows 41 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, and the last inspection was January 2026. Quality measures score at the top of CMS's scale even as health inspection and staffing each land mid-range. It's a for-profit limited liability company, 59 beds, in Oroville.

South Bay Post Acute Care runs 99 beds in Chula Vista under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are mostly solid. Nurse staffing sits at 4.23 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, though weekends dip about 13% below the home's own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 40.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The home carries 30 deficiencies on its current record, but none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was in May 2025.

The Bradley Gardens runs 44 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership in San Jacinto, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.13 hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average. Weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins slightly when families tend to visit. The bigger thing to weigh is the inspection record: 48 deficiencies on file, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was August 2025. CMS gives it 3 stars for health inspections and staffing, 4 for quality measures. Nothing here signals danger, but the deficiency count and abuse citations are worth raising directly with the administrator.
