Clifford Chester Sims, the state-run veterans home in Panama City, runs on 5.28 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 37% more than the national average, and that shows up as five stars for staffing. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below weekdays, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 45%, essentially the national rate, which is unremarkable for a workforce this size. The health inspection record is where it separates itself: five stars, three deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and a clean April 2025 inspection. The catch is quality measures, where two stars suggests outcomes don't fully track the staffing investment.

Arabella Health & Wellness of Carrabelle runs 74 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits about 13% under the national average at 3.37 nurse hours per resident day, with weekends roughly 5% thinner than weekdays. Still, turnover is 37.7%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests the staff who are there tend to stay. The inspection record is clean where it counts: four deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in March 2026. So you're looking at a home that runs lean on hours but has held onto its people and avoided serious findings.

Solaris Healthcare Celebration runs 120 beds in Kissimmee under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers on its current record are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 4.08 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, though weekend coverage dips roughly 7% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover of 42.7% is a touch better than the national 45.8%, and the home carries 19 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. Its last inspection was February 2026, so the record is recent.

Life Care Center Of Punta Gorda runs 180 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits just barely above the national average, 3.91 nurse hours per resident day versus 3.86 nationwide. That margin is thin, and weekends run about 12% lighter than weekdays, so coverage isn't uniform across the week. Staff turnover comes in at 38.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The current inspection record shows six deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a single fine of $8,151; the most recent state visit was July 2024. Quality measures score well, but the two-star health inspection rating is where the real caution lies.

Life Care Center of Melbourne runs 120 certified beds in Brevard County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its numbers are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 3.59 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is where it separates itself: 26.5% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning far fewer people cycling through the building. Inspections show 12 deficiencies on record with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent visit was in September 2025.

Whispering Oaks runs 236 beds in Tampa under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.9% against a national 45.8%, which suggests less churn in who's actually at the bedside. Inspections are another story. The current record carries 29 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last survey was recent, in February 2026. Quality measures score well; the inspection history is what pulls this one down.

Ocala Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 180 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.82 nurse hours per resident day. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, worth knowing if you visit or call on a Saturday. Turnover is the brighter spot: 37.8% against a national 45.8%, so more of the aides and nurses who start here tend to stay. The current inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last survey in September 2025. Quality measures scored well; staffing and inspections landed mid-range.

Nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident per day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 8% lighter than weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs help most on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover is 40.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests aides tend to stay. Sixteen deficiencies appear on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was May 2026. Quality measures score well; staffing is the softer spot.

Woodbridge Care Center and Rehab runs 120 certified beds in Tampa under individual for-profit ownership, and its strongest numbers sit on the clinical side. The CMS quality measure rating is a perfect 5 out of 5, and the staffing rating is 4 out of 5. Turnover is the standout: 24.7% annually, roughly half the national average, which suggests a stable crew. The trade-off is daily coverage. Total nurse staffing comes in at 3.69 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop another 6% below its own weekday level. Health inspections rate 2 out of 5, with 21 deficiencies on record, none at harm level, none abuse-related, and two fines totaling $4,938. The most recent inspection was August 2025.

Vivo Healthcare Gandy runs 160 beds in Tampa under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the number that should worry you most: 23 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. CMS gave it a single star for health inspections. The quality measure score sits at five stars, but that reflects resident assessment data, not how the building actually performs when a state surveyor walks through. Nurse staffing runs 3.67 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover at 39.7% is better than the 45.8% national figure, though the last inspection was January 2025.

Beach Breeze runs on a corporate for-profit model, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.51 hours per resident day, about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 5% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover at 32.3% is meaningfully better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests the staff who are there tend to stay. The current record shows 30 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. Inspections scored 2 out of 5 stars while quality measures and staffing each earned 4, so the gap between day-to-day care indicators and the survey history is worth asking about directly.

Susanna Wesley Health Center runs 120 certified beds in Hialeah under for-profit LLC ownership, and its strongest signal is staffing stability. Annual turnover sits at 36%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines and catch changes early. Total nurse staffing is 3.67 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86, though weekend coverage actually edges slightly above its own weekday level, unusual, since many homes thin out on weekends. Its 14 deficiencies include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in June 2025. Quality measures score well above inspection results here.

Margate Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 170 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 6% below its own weekday numbers, so families should ask how that gap gets handled. What stands out favorably is turnover: 31.3% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses here tend to stay. The current record shows 16 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection dated April 9, 2026. Federal ratings land at 4 of 5 for health inspections, 5 of 5 for quality measures, and 4 of 5 for staffing.

The Good Samaritan Society-Kissimmee Village is a 161-bed nonprofit home where the staff tends to stay: turnover runs 23.2%, roughly half the national average of 45.8%. That stability shows up in the quality measure star rating, which sits at 4 out of 5. But the inspection record is where the trouble is, 22 deficiencies, including 5 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $246,133. Total nurse staffing is 3.42 hours per resident day, about 12% below the national average, and weekends drop another 6% below the home's own weekday level.

Total nurse hours sit at 3.76 per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits primarily on Saturdays or Sundays.

North Lake Care Center runs 85 beds in Lake Park under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last inspection was in September 2025. The 30 deficiencies on record include one at the harm level, though none are abuse-related, and there's a single fine of $10,206. Nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends run about 6% leaner than weekdays. Turnover at 41.9% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, which matters for consistency of care. What you're looking at is a home that scores well on quality measures but runs thinner on direct nursing hours than most, with a mixed inspection record.

East Bay Rehabilitation Center runs 120 certified beds in Clearwater under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national average, 3.87 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally. The catch is weekends, when hours drop about 10% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover lands at 44.8%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. Twelve deficiencies appear on the current record, though none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in February 2024. Quality measures score well, and the staffing rating is solid. What holds the overall picture back is a middling health inspection result and that weekend dip.

Solaris Healthcare Merritt Island runs 180 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its staffing sits at 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 9% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the better story here: 38.8% against a national 45.8%, so this home holds onto its nurses better than most. The trade-off shows up in inspections. Twenty-two deficiencies on the current record, one abuse-related, none at harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection was August 2024. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections are middling. A place with stable caregivers and a recent, mostly low-level citation history.

Solaris Healthcare Imperial runs on remarkably steady staff for a nonprofit, 11.3% turnover against a national average near 46% means the people caring for your relative mostly stay. That matters more than raw hours, though the 3.53 daily nursing hours sit about 8% under the national figure, and weekends dip another 5%. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 19 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with a $29,738 fine and a two-star health inspection rating from CMS. Quality measures score five stars, staffing four. The last full inspection was November 2024, so the record is current. Consistency here is real; the compliance history is the question mark.

Cypress Village is a for-profit corporation running 100 certified beds in Jacksonville, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture: 5.07 nurse hours per resident day, well above the 3.86 national average. That said, weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays, so ask how coverage holds up on a Saturday. The health inspection record is clean where it matters, seven deficiencies on file, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and the last inspection was April 2025, so the picture is current. Staff turnover of 43.9% is slightly better than the 45.8% national average, though still means roughly two in five caregivers left within a year.
