Sarasota Health And Rehabilitation Center runs 144 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits around 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover at 43.4% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so that part isn't the problem. The inspection record is: 23 deficiencies on file, three at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus five fines totaling $230,102, with the last inspection in June 2024. CMS gives it one star for health inspections but four for quality measures and four for staffing, the quality and staffing numbers look stronger than the inspection history, and that gap is what matters here.

Greenbriar is a for-profit corporate home in Bradenton with 79 beds, and its numbers land close to average without much cushion. Nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, a hair under the national 3.86, and weekends run roughly 8% thinner than weekdays, so coverage depends on when you visit. Staff turnover is 48.8%, above the national 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing team turns over in a year. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine of $8,512; the most recent inspection was July 2025. Quality measures score better than staffing or inspections do.

Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center of Tampa, a 174-bed nonprofit, carries 32 deficiencies on its current record, five of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in jeopardy, plus $231,152 in federal fines. The health inspection rating sits at the bottom of CMS's scale, and the most recent inspection was in April 2025, recent enough that these findings reflect how the place operates now. Staffing is a mixed picture: 3.42 nurse hours per resident day runs about 11% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday levels. Turnover, though, is 33.8% against a 45.8% national average, which suggests workers tend to stay. Weigh that stability against the harm-level citations before deciding.

Heather Hill runs a nonprofit home with 105 beds in New Port Richey, and its strongest suit is staffing: 3.44 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average, but turnover sits at 38.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses here stick around longer than is typical. Weekends dip roughly 6% below weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The state inspection record is the weak spot: 25 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with the last survey in June 2024. Nothing abuse-related appears on file. A 2/5 inspection rating next to a 4/5 staffing rating tells you where to aim your questions.

Aspire At Ridge Haven runs 120 beds in New Port Richey under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out: 3.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 10% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 49.5%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the faces around your relative may change often. The record shows 22 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in January 2024. Quality measures score well; it's the day-to-day coverage that's lean. Ask how weekends and evenings are actually staffed before deciding.

Royal Palm Beach Health and Rehabilitation runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.38 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, with weekends running about 6% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the brighter spot: 35.1% against a national 45.8%, which suggests a more stable crew than most. The inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, plus a single $4,156 fine. State inspectors last visited in May 2025.

Regents Park of Jacksonville runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture: 11 deficiencies on file, none causing harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse, with a survey completed in May 2025. Staffing is where it slips. At 3.37 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 13% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 8% lighter than its own weekdays. Turnover lands at 42.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same faces are more likely to stay, but the day-to-day coverage is thinner than average.

Avante Villa At Jacksonville Beach runs 165 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its last health inspection came in September 2024, recent enough that the 14 deficiencies on record are current, though none rose to harm or jeopardy and none involved abuse. Nurse staffing sits at 3.62 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 6% below the home's own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts are predictable. Staff turnover of 48.4% runs a few points above the national 45.8%, meaning a meaningful share of caregivers are still new to the building. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspection results are more middle of the road.

Palatka Center runs 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 6% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 51.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the faces around your relative may change often. The current inspection record carries 33 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level; the last survey was in February 2025, so that record is fairly recent. For-profit operation under an LLC, with a two-star staffing rating and a two-star inspection rating against a four-star quality measure score, the clinical metrics look better than the day-to-day staffing picture. Ask about weekend coverage and how they manage turnover before deciding.

Boca Circle Rehabilitation Center runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.62 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 8% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 40%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 39 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a $31,736 fine. The most recent inspection was February 2025, so the record is current. Quality measures score well; the survey history is where the problems concentrate.

Ruleme Center runs 138 beds in Eustis under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.56 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 9% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 63.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning well over half the nursing staff turns over each year. The inspection record shows 18 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus two fines totaling $24,889; the most recent inspection was January 23, 2026. Quality measures score well, but the staffing and inspection numbers tell the more grounded story.

Adviniacare At Naples runs 40 beds, and its last full health inspection was in March 2024. The inspection record is the hard part: 18 deficiencies, seven of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in jeopardy, and three tied to abuse. Federal fines total $231,990 across three penalties. Staffing is a mixed picture, 3.55 nurse hours per resident day sits about 8% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 3% below the home's own weekday levels, though 41.5% annual turnover is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. A family deciding here should weigh that inspection history carefully against the decent staffing numbers.

West Delray runs 3.46 nursing hours per resident day, about ten percent under the national average, and weekends dip roughly six percent below its own weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 39.3%, better than the national 45.8%, which suggests some steadiness in the workforce. The inspection record is the harder part: 40 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $39,841, with the most recent inspection in March 2025. The quality measure score looks strong, but that reflects charted care, not the day-to-day supervision the state cited.

Grove Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center in Hernando runs 120 beds under for-profit limited liability ownership. Its nurse staffing sits just barely above the national average, about 3.89 hours per resident day, but weekends drop roughly 8% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 51.7%, worse than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 30 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and one fine totaling $167,954. Quality measures score well here, but the health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5, and a recent June 2025 visit means the state was in the building not long ago.

Ridgecrest runs 146 beds in Deland under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely solid, a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, only eight deficiencies on file, and none of them tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse, with the most recent survey completed in January 2026. The weaker spot is staffing. At 3.61 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% below the national average, weekends run roughly 7% lighter than weekdays, and turnover lands at 47.7% against a national 45.8%. Quality measures score well and inspections look clean, but the daily coverage numbers are thin enough that you'd want to ask about evening and weekend nurse presence specifically.

The Villages Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership in Lady Lake, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.39 hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average. That number is the strongest thing it has going. The catch is consistency: weekend staffing drops about 8% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 51%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. On the health inspection side, 23 deficiencies sit on the current record, though none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. The last inspection came in May 2025. The quality measure rating is strong; the inspection and staffing ratings are not.

Pruitthealth - Southwood runs 101 certified beds in Tallahassee under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture: a recent July 2025 survey, 10 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine of $6,380. Staffing is where it gets thinner. At 3.80 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover of 48.6% runs a few points above the national 45.8%, so expect some unfamiliar faces.

North Port Rehabilitation runs 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, which is about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop another 9% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in its CMS staffing rating of 1 out of 5, even as its quality measure score sits at 5 out of 5, a split worth noticing, since strong outcome numbers don't necessarily mean enough hands on the floor. The inspection record is mixed: 33 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, and one fine of $14,770. The last inspection was July 2024. A for-profit LLC with a 2 out of 5 on health inspections makes staffing the thing to ask about directly.

Jacksonville Rehabilitation and Nursing runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.27 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86. That gap shows up in turnover too: 66.4% of staff leave annually, well above the 45.8% national figure, and weekend coverage dips about 3% below the home's own weekday level. The current record lists 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 30, 2026.

Sandgate Gardens runs about 9% below the national average on nurse staffing hours, 3.52 per resident day against 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 9% below what the home itself provides Monday through Friday. That thinner weekend coverage matters because staff turnover sits at 57.6%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people covering those shifts are often new. The inspection record shows 45 deficiencies, none tied to harm or abuse, with the most recent survey in April 2025. Quality measures score well, but the staffing and inspection ratings don't match that picture, which is the gap worth asking about before you visit.
