Staff turnover

Daytona Beach Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 180 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers here are steadier than most. Nurse staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, just above the national average, though weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits primarily on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover is 34%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. Its inspection record shows seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated January 2026. The five-star health inspection rating and four-star quality and staffing ratings reflect that record.

South Orange runs a for-profit limited liability operation with 115 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 4.50 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 17% above the national average, though weekends run roughly 7% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits then. Turnover lands at 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure. Inspections in February 2025 turned up 15 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse, which you should ask about directly. Two fines totaling $14,442 round out the record.

Nurse staffing at Village On The Green runs 4.05 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, and turnover of 42.4% is slightly better than the typical 45.8%. But look closer: weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level, and the current record carries 10 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy. Inspectors were last on site in March 2025. The quality measure rating sits at 5 out of 5, and health inspection and staffing each land at 4, yet a nonprofit with 60 beds scoring well on paper still shows that one harm-level finding and thinner weekend staffing. That gap between ratings and the record is what a C reflects.

Savannas Park runs on 4.38 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average, with weekend staffing dipping about 8% below its own weekday level, so the coverage is real, but it thins out a bit on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 35.3% against a national average of 45.8%, which suggests the workforce here is steadier than most. The record shows 25 deficiencies with none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related, and the last inspection came in August 2025. Quality measures score high; the health inspection side is more middle-of-the-road.

Covenant Village runs a leaner floor than average, 3.77 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. What stands out more is retention: 15.3% annual turnover against a national 45.8% means the people caring for your family member tend to stay, which matters for knowing who's in the building. Its 13 deficiencies include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was May 2025. The nonprofit ownership and steady workforce are the real story here, not the letter grade.

Nspire Healthcare Kendall runs 120 beds under corporate ownership, and its recent inspection history is genuinely solid, a November 2024 survey, 22 deficiencies on record but none at the harm or jeopardy level. One abuse-related citation is the outlier worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.55 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends run about 5% thinner than weekdays, so coverage can feel stretched. What offsets that is retention: 26.9% turnover against a national 45.8% means the aides and nurses here tend to stay, which matters more for daily care than a staffing number on paper.

Bayshore Pointe runs 117 beds in Tampa under limited-liability, for-profit ownership, and its inspection record carries 34 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level. The last full look from regulators came in September 2024, so that record is recent. Staffing sits slightly under the national average at 3.73 hours per resident day, and weekends dip about 10% below weekdays, worth asking how coverage holds up on a Sunday. Turnover is the brighter spot at 36.1%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn than many homes. The 5/5 quality measure score stands out against a 2/5 inspection rating, so ask what drives each.

Regency Oaks Health Center sits in Clearwater with 60 certified beds and for-profit LLC ownership. Nurse staffing runs 4.28 hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 7% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover is 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure. Those numbers support the staffing picture, and the quality measure rating comes in at 5 out of 5. The inspection record tells a different story. Sixteen deficiencies are on file, five at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in December 2024. The health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5, so the daily care metrics look strong while the survey history carries real weight.

Nurse staffing at Lake Park runs 4.16 hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, which matters more than any single number here. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level, that's when families tend to notice. Staff turnover sits at 32.4%, well under the 45.8% national rate. The inspection record is clean where it counts: seven deficiencies total, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in February 2026. For-profit ownership through an LLC is worth knowing, but the numbers suggest stable staffing and no serious safety findings.

Solaris Healthcare Coconut Creek runs on a nonprofit corporate model with 120 certified beds, and its staffing sits at 3.77 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 10% below weekday coverage there, so if you're visiting or calling on a Saturday, expect a thinner floor. The stronger number is retention: 32% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, which suggests caregivers stick around longer than at the typical home. Inspections back that up, 13 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in January 2026.

St. Andrew Post-Acute Rehabilitation Center is a 45-bed for-profit home in Tampa, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stands out. At 4.67 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 21 percent above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips below weekdays. Turnover sits at 41.7 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure. What holds it back is the inspection record: 20 deficiencies on file, though none involved harm or abuse, and the health inspection rating is 2 out of 5. The last survey was September 5, 2024, so it's reasonably current. Strong care numbers paired with a middling inspection history is the honest picture here.

Pruitthealth - Santa Rosa runs 120 beds in Milton under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers suggest a home that's been run carefully. Nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, about 3% under the national average, close enough to call it a rounding difference. Weekends dip roughly 11% below weekday coverage, and 37.7% of staff turned over last year, which is actually better than the 45.8% national rate. The current record shows 6 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. That last inspection was March 27, 2026. Four stars on health inspections, five on quality measures, four on staffing: consistent across the board, with the weekend gap worth asking about directly.

Life Care Center of New Port Richey runs 113 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is solidly above average: 3.98 total nurse hours per resident day against a national figure of 3.86. Turnover sits at 37.4%, well under the 45.8% national rate, which matters for continuity of care. The trade-offs show up elsewhere. Weekend staffing drops roughly 8% below the home's own weekday level, and a current record of 24 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, points to paperwork and process problems rather than resident safety failures. The last inspection was March 5, 2025, so the record is recent. Quality measures score 5/5 while health inspections score 3/5, a split worth understanding before you visit.

Freedom Pointe Health Center runs on 4.61 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 32.9% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, a combination that usually means caregivers stay long enough to know the residents. Weekend staffing drops about 13% from weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The 17 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none related to abuse, and the most recent inspection was in January 2026. Three of four CMS star categories land at 4 out of 5.

Sierra Lakes runs 180 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the real problem here: 28 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. That's what drives a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, and it matters more than the quality measure score of 4 out of 5, which comes from resident assessment data rather than a surveyor's eyes. Staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, with weekends about 8% thinner than weekdays. The genuinely good number is turnover at 15.8% against a national 45.8%, stable caregivers, but they're stretched. The last inspection was January 15, 2026, so the record is current.

Biscayne Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 98 certified beds in North Miami under for-profit limited liability ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed. At 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 4% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Retention is the real strength: 20.5% annual turnover against a national 45.8% means the aides and nurses here tend to stay, which matters more for daily care than a raw hours number suggests. Thirteen deficiencies are on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a health inspection completed May 14, 2026.

Wilton Manors Healthcare runs a leaner ship than most on staff retention, 16.5% turnover against a national average of 45.8% means the people caring for your relative are more likely to still be there next year. Nurse staffing sits at 4.11 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, though weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays, so ask how coverage looks on a Sunday. The health inspection record is the weak spot: 27 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a $17,345 fine. No abuse citations, and the last full inspection was March 2024.

Cypress Cove runs a tight ship, and the numbers back it up. Five deficiencies on record with nothing at the harm level and no abuse citations is a clean inspection history, and a 4/5 health inspection star with the most recent survey dated April 2026 means the state has looked recently and found little to flag. Staff turnover sits at 34.3%, well under the national 45.8%, that kind of retention usually means people stay because the place is run decently. Where it slips is raw staffing hours: 3.79 per resident day against a national 3.86, and weekends drop about 9% below the home's own weekday pace. Nothing alarming, but if you're touring, ask who's actually on the floor on a Saturday.

Isles of Boynton runs 3.59 nursing hours per resident day, about 7% under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the genuine bright spot: 27.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. The inspection record is more mixed. Twenty-six deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $16,152 in fines and a February 2026 inspection. Quality measures score well, but quality scores come from the home's own reporting; the deficiency count and thin weekend staffing are what outside surveyors actually found.

Harbour Health Center runs on a for-profit LLC structure with 104 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are where it stands out: 4.81 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, with turnover at 28.2% against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 15% below its own weekday level, so care thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. The trouble sits on the inspection side, 15 deficiencies on record, one at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $35,597. The most recent inspection was March 2026. Strong staffing and a 4/5 quality measure score are real, but they don't erase what inspectors found.
