Plaza Health And Rehab in Gainesville runs 180 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, but weekends drop about 7% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 60.4% is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning nearly two-thirds of the nursing staff turns over each year. The good news: a September 2025 inspection with four out of five stars, no harm-level or abuse deficiencies among the 15 on record, and top marks on quality measures. Staffing consistency is the weak spot.

Titusville Rehabilitation & Nursing Center runs on thin staffing: 3.02 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday levels. That's the kind of gap families feel on Saturday afternoons. Annual turnover sits at 63.4%, well above the national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for your relative are often new to the building. The inspection record is the heavier concern, 27 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a $17,369 fine. A 5/5 quality measure score sits oddly beside a 1/5 inspection rating; ask what the quality numbers actually capture. The most recent inspection was March 2026, and the for-profit LLC ownership structure is worth asking about directly.

Aviata At Arbor Springs runs about 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 8% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover hits 62.9% against a national 45.8%, so the people around your family member change often. The 39 deficiencies on record include one at harm or jeopardy level, and the one-star health inspection rating reflects a pattern, not a single bad day. Quality measures score well, but that's resident data, not a statement about the building's systems. A 180-bed for-profit LLC with staffing at two stars and that churn is worth visiting unannounced on a weekend before deciding.

Lotus Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 180 beds in Orlando under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last state inspection was in October 2024, recent enough that the record reflects current conditions. That record shows 32 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, which is a serious pattern for a single home. Nurse staffing sits at 3.55 hours per resident day, roughly 8 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 9 percent below its own weekday level. Staff turnover is 34.4 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so retention isn't the weak spot here. The inspection and staffing ratings tell the harder story.

Carlton Shores looks strong on paper where inspections and quality measures are concerned, both hold top marks, the five deficiencies on record are all minor, and a January 2026 inspection means the state's findings are recent. Staffing is where the picture changes. At 3.79 nurse hours per resident day, it runs slightly under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 9% below weekday levels, right when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 55.4% sits well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters more than raw hours, a revolving crew knows residents less well. The corporation running it keeps costs tight.

Avante At St Cloud runs on thinner nursing hours than most homes: 3.38 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip further below its own weekday numbers. That shortfall shows up in its staffing rating, and 55.3% annual turnover means more than half the nurses left within a year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The 20 deficiencies on record include two tied to abuse, though none reached actual harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was August 2024. Its quality measure scores are strong, which suggests residents' clinical outcomes are being tracked well even as day-to-day staffing stays lean.

Oakpark runs 3.41 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 12% under the national average, and weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday level, so the hours you'd want most, evenings and Saturdays, are the thinnest. Staff turnover sits at 55.8% against a national 45.8%, which means a revolving door of caregivers who don't stay long enough to know your mother's routines. The record shows 23 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. That quality-measure score of 5 out of 5 looks strong, but it's built on charted outcomes, not the staffing hours actually delivered at the bedside. It's a for-profit LLC with 180 beds.

Palm Garden of Pinellas runs 120 beds in Largo under individual for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the main thing to know. The current file lists 31 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one abuse-related finding. Two fines totaling $10,039 are on record, and the most recent inspection was May 15, 2025. Staffing sits at 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, with weekends roughly 8% lighter than weekdays, and turnover runs 57.9% against a national 45.8%. The quality measure score looks good, but quality measures are self-reported, and 31 deficiencies with three at harm level is a lot to weigh against them.

Conway Lakes runs 120 certified beds in Orlando under for-profit partnership ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.99 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover of 45.4% lands right at the national norm, so retention isn't the problem here. The trouble shows up in its record: 31 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, plus six fines totaling $94,672. A recent inspection in September 2025 means the findings are current, not stale. Quality measures score well, but the inspection history is what drags the overall picture down.

Kensington Gardens runs 150 beds in Clearwater under individual for-profit ownership, and the inspection record is the first thing to look at. Forty-one deficiencies on the current record, five of them abuse-related, with a one-out-of-five inspection rating. Staffing also sits at one star, well below what CMS expects for a building this size, so the people caring for residents are stretched thin by the numbers. There's no harm-level citation on file and quality measures land at three stars, which says the clinical tracking isn't the problem. It's the oversight and the floor coverage. Two fines totaling $18,070 and an inspection from February 2024 round out the picture.

Coquina Center runs 3.42 total nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, that staffing shortfall is what drags its CMS staffing rating to 1 out of 5. The inspection side looks better: a 4/5 health inspection rating with only 8 deficiencies on record and none at the harm or jeopardy level, plus quality measures at 4/5 and a recent survey dated February 2026. This for-profit LLC home in Ormond Beach has 120 certified beds, and the split is the story, decent care outcomes and a clean recent inspection history sitting on top of thin daily nursing hours.

Pruitthealth - Pensacola runs 120 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its recent inspection history is the strongest thing it has going: three deficiencies on record, none rising to harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse, with the last survey completed in March 2026. Staffing is thinner than it looks, though. At 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday levels, worth asking how coverage holds up on a Sunday. The quality measure rating of 2 out of 5 is the number to press on, since it reflects resident outcomes rather than the paper trail.

Boca Ciega Center runs about 3.17 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 18% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 6% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That thinner coverage matters more given 52.1% annual turnover, higher than the 45.8% national figure, because residents see a rotating cast of caregivers. The health inspection history is the weakest part of the picture: 31 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse, and the last inspection was May 2024. Quality measures score well, but quality scores reflect resident outcomes, not whether the building is reliably staffed and inspected clean.

Aviata At Colonial Lakes runs 180 certified beds in Winter Garden, and nurse staffing sits at 3.21 hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 8 percent thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover is 49.3 percent, slightly above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people caring for residents keep changing. Its inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus three fines totaling $23,136; the last inspection was April 2, 2026, and the health inspection rating is 2 out of 5. Quality measures score well at 4 out of 5, but that reflects resident outcomes on paper, not the staffing that shapes daily life.

Ormond Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs 60 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing tells the clearest story here: 3.55 nurse hours per resident day sits about 8% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below the home's own weekday staffing. That dip matters for families whose visits fall on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover of 56.5% is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning aides and nurses cycle through more often than at a typical home, which can affect how well staff know individual residents. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025.

Annual turnover is 48.4%, a bit above the national 45.8%. The current record shows 34 deficiencies, none at the harm level but one abuse-related, plus a single fine of $6,351. CMS gives it 2 stars for health inspections and 2 for staffing, though 3 for quality measures, and its last inspection was May 8, 2025.

The staffing picture at Springs At Lake Pointe Woods is thin: 3.68 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 8% below the home's own weekday level. Turnover sits at 53.9%, well above the 45.8% national figure, that's more than half the nursing staff leaving in a year, which matters for a 101-bed building where residents need consistent caregivers. The inspection record carries 21 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, plus six fines totaling $51,671. A five-star quality measure score can reflect good clinical numbers on paper, but it's hard to see how it offsets a one-star inspection rating.

Timberridge runs 180 certified beds in Ocala under corporate for-profit ownership, and its 24 deficiencies on the current record, three at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, are the kind of numbers that explain the $119,636 federal fine. The health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5, though the quality measure score is a perfect 5, a split that often says the charted outcomes look better than the day-to-day oversight does. Nurse staffing lands at 3.66 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national figure, and weekends drop roughly 10% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover at 44.2% is slightly better than average, which is worth something, but it doesn't offset the inspection history.

Aviata At Central Park runs 3.24 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 16% under the national average, and weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday staffing. The 46.5% turnover rate sits close to the 45.8% national figure, so retention isn't the standout problem, raw coverage is. Inspectors cited 34 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with two fines totaling $7,456; the last visit was January 2024. The 5/5 quality measure score contrasts with 2/5 marks for both staffing and health inspections, a split that usually means the home documents care processes well while running thin on direct nursing hours. For-profit corporate ownership. Worth a visit, with staffing questions ready.

Sunset Lake Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center, a 120-bed for-profit in Venice, sits at a staffing level that essentially matches the national average, 3.86 nurse hours per resident day, but weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays, and turnover hits 54.5% against a national 45.8%. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 30 deficiencies, five of them at harm or jeopardy level, three abuse-related, and a single fine of $319,770. That combination earned a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating even though its quality measure score is perfect and staffing is middling. The last inspection was in April 2025, so the record is current. Families weighing this home should ask directly about the abuse findings and how weekend coverage is handled.
