Good Samaritan Society - Ellsworth Village runs on 3.64 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 6% under the national average, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters in a 43-bed nonprofit home where turnover sits at 52.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record is genuinely strong, a 5/5 health inspection star and a recent survey, but it carries 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus an $8,190 fine. Quality measures score 2/5. Stable inspections, thinner daily coverage.

Minneapolis Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center runs 45 beds under corporate ownership, and the numbers pull in two directions. Inspections look strong, a recent May 2025 survey, five deficiencies total, only one at the harm level, no abuse findings, but staffing is where the trouble sits. At 3.57 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 8% under the national average, weekends drop another 14% below its own weekday pace, and 56.8% annual turnover means more than half the staff leaves each year. A $16,708 fine is on record. Good surveys don't staff a building on a Saturday; ask what the weekend floor actually looks like.

Legacy At Herington runs on thin margins when it comes to people. Nurse staffing sits at 4.00 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 11% below what the home staffs during the week, so the coverage families see on a Tuesday isn't what shows up on a Sunday. Annual turnover of 97.6% means the entire staff essentially replaces itself every year, more than double the national rate. That churn sits behind a one-star health inspection rating, with 44 deficiencies on record including two at the harm level and three tied to abuse. A four-star quality measure score and recent October 2024 inspection don't erase those numbers.

Medicalodges Iola runs a for-profit, limited-liability operation with 45 certified beds in Allen County, and its staffing is genuinely a bright spot: 4.20 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average. That's the good news, and it matters. But the same numbers show weekend staffing drops about 16% below weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 51.1%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the harder part: 41 deficiencies on file, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $42,224. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so the record is current, not stale.

Lincoln Care and Rehab runs 45 beds in Wichita under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the part that stands out: 43 deficiencies logged, two of them serious enough to put residents in harm or jeopardy, plus one tied to abuse. Three fines add up to $40,104. The last full inspection was October 2023, so that record has had time to age without a fresh look. Staffing sits slightly under the national average at 3.77 hours per resident day, and weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs help on Saturdays and Sundays.

Ignite Medical Resort Overland Park runs 102 certified beds under nonprofit corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 4% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 53.5% against a national 45.8%, so the people on shift change often and thin out when families tend to visit. The inspection record shows 36 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, with one fine of $6,942 and a last survey dated July 2024. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections do not.

Winfield Senior Living runs 55 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.73 hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average. Weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families are most likely to visit. Turnover is 45.2%, essentially matching the national rate, so that's not the problem here. The real issue is the inspection record: 23 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent state visit in February 2025. No abuse citations appear. Quality and staffing measures both land mid-range, but a recent inspection with a harm-level finding is the number worth asking about directly.

Heritage Gardens runs about 3.84 nurse staffing hours per resident day, essentially matching the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop roughly 9% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the coverage your family member gets depends on the day of the week. Staff turnover sits at 54.5%, well above the national 45.8%, meaning nearly six in ten caregivers left over the past year. The inspection record shows 42 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with one fine of $13,056 and a survey completed in May 2025. For-profit, limited liability ownership, 60 beds.

Sandpiper runs 104 certified beds in Wichita under corporate ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed in a way the star ratings capture: 4.00 nurse hours per resident day sits about 4% above the national average, yet weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover is 56.5% against a national 45.8%. That churn shows up in the CMS staffing score of 2 out of 5 even though raw hours look fine on paper. The quality measure score is 5 out of 5, which is genuinely strong, but the inspection record carries 32 deficiencies with no harm-level or abuse findings and one fine of $16,801, most recently surveyed in November 2024.

Richmond Healthcare & Rehab Center runs 60 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, with weekends about 12% thinner than weekdays. That pattern matters, because the staff you get on a Saturday is the staff you get. Annual turnover of 53.6% is roughly eight points above the national rate, so caregivers cycle through faster than average. The current record shows 35 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in February 2025. Quality measures score near the bottom even as staffing scores well above it, an unusual split worth asking the administrator to explain directly.

Atchison Senior Village runs 45 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially dead even with the national average of 3.86, so there's no real cushion there. Weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday coverage, which is where thin staffing usually shows up first. The inspection record carries 39 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level, plus three fines totaling $20,817; the last inspection was February 2026. The quality measure rating of 4 out of 5 is the bright spot here, and the health inspection rating of 3 reflects a mixed record rather than a troubled one. Weigh the weekend gap and that harm-level deficiency against the decent quality scores.

Riverbend Post Acute Rehabilitation runs 131 certified beds in Kansas City under for-profit corporate ownership, and CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent record of serious problems. The current inspection record shows 44 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus $84,023 in fines across two events. Nurse staffing sits at 3.53 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 35.5%, better than the 45.8% national figure, but that's the one number here that works in its favor.

Holiday Resort Of Salina runs on thin margins where it counts. The 4.05 nurse hours per resident day beats the national average, which is why staffing scores well, but a 62.3% annual turnover means the people delivering that care keep leaving, and weekend coverage drops about 9% below weekday levels, so the weakest shifts are when families visit. The inspection record is heavier: 42 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with a $16,795 fine. Ownership is for-profit, through a limited liability company, and the last inspection was July 2025. The staffing number looks better than the history behind it.

Stratford Commons runs 60 beds in Overland Park, and the nurse staffing number looks fine at first glance, 4.10 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average. The problem is who's still there and when. Weekend coverage drops about 14% below its own weekday levels, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. And 63.8% of staff turned over in a year against a national average near 46%, which means the people delivering that care are often new and still learning the building. State inspectors cited 45 deficiencies, including one involving harm and one abuse-related, with a $24,845 fine. Ownership is for-profit corporate.

Nurse staffing at Medicalodges Leavenworth runs about 10% above the national average, which sounds good until you look at how thin weekends get, roughly 13% below the home's own weekday coverage. The bigger issue is turnover: 93.3% of staff leave each year, double the national rate, so the people providing that care are constantly new. Inspections back this up. The home carries 61 deficiencies on its current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, and its last inspection was September 2024. A single fine of $8,281 is on file. For-profit corporate ownership, 45 beds.

Overland Park Post Acute runs 140 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 2.92 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 14% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 51.3%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for residents are often new to the building. The inspection record is the harder read: 59 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $59,683 in fines. The most recent inspection was September 11, 2024.

Pittsburg Care and Rehab runs 86 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.23 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover lands at 43.5%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and the last inspection was March 2026. The inspection history is the harder part: 36 deficiencies on record, including three at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related. Strong inspection and staffing stars don't cancel out a quality measure star of 1, which suggests the day-to-day clinical picture lags the paperwork.

Frankfort Community Care Home runs a nonprofit operation with 40 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average, 3.93 hours per resident day versus 3.86. That margin shrinks on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover is the bigger concern: 57.1% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing team leaves each year. The inspection record is where things get harder to explain away, 33 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $25,413. A 2025 inspection is recent enough to reflect current conditions. Strong staffing numbers sit alongside real quality and safety problems here.

The inspection record is the first thing that stands out here, a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 55 deficiencies on file, including two tied to abuse and three serious enough to cause actual harm or put residents in jeopardy. Staffing sits just under the national average, which wouldn't matter much on its own, but weekend coverage dips about 4% below the facility's own weekday level, and turnover runs at 74.6% against a national average of 45.8%. That combination, a thin weekend crew in a building where most caregivers are new, is what drives the low marks. Two fines totaling nearly $30,000 round out the picture.

Rolling Hills Health Center in Topeka is a for-profit, LLC-owned home with 70 certified beds, and its numbers point in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.27 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays, so the weakest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 53.5%, well above the national 45.8%, which means caregivers change often. On the record: 44 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a $14,186 fine. The last inspection was July 2025, so that picture is current.
