Cumberland Healthcare Center runs 130 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.29 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops another 10% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot at 23.2%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a steadier crew than most. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 59 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus a $97,777 fine. The most recent inspection was October 2025.

0

Autumn Lake Healthcare at Loch Raven runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes, 3.57 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 11% below its own weekday staffing. That pattern matters because the hours are already lean before the weekend dip. Staff turnover sits at 50.5%, above the 45.8% national figure, so half the nursing workforce turns over in a year at a 113-bed for-profit limited liability company. The inspection record shows 89 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was September 2025. Resident outcomes score well even as the staffing and inspection sides lag.

Autumn Lake Healthcare at Waugh Chapel runs 110 beds in Gambrills under for-profit LLC ownership, and its numbers tell a split story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.64 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average, with weekends running about 11% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage families count on can vary by the calendar. The record shows 25 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, and the last inspection was in March 2025. Turnover lands at 45.7%, essentially the national rate. Strong inspection and quality marks sit alongside that thinner staffing, which is the tension worth asking about directly.

Fairfield Nursing & Rehabilitation Center runs 3.57 nursing hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 32.6%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests a more stable crew than many for-profit homes. The tradeoff shows in oversight: 58 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $51,597 fine. Its last inspection was November 2025. The staffing numbers look better than the inspection history does, worth asking about those abuse-related citations directly before deciding.

Autumn Lake Healthcare At Glen Burnie runs 190 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.34 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop another 9 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover at 43.2 percent is slightly better than the 45.8 percent national figure, which matters given how much churn disrupts daily care. The inspection record is the real weight here: 127 deficiencies, 11 tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent visit in February 2025. Quality measures score well; the inspection history is what pulls the overall picture down.

Autumn Lake Healthcare at Long View runs 109 beds in Manchester under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average, 3.96 hours per resident day versus 3.86. That edge is thin, though, and weekends run about 8% lighter than weekdays, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Staff turnover lands at 50%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether caregivers stick around long enough to know residents well. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. Its most recent inspection was December 2025, so the picture is current.

Complete Care At Corsica Hills is a 120-bed for-profit home in Centreville, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.59 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends run thinner still, roughly 7% below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover is 51.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for your relative are more likely than average to be new. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 36 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, plus a $55,564 fine. The most recent inspection was in January 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well; staffing and safety are where the gaps show.

Franklin Woods Center is a for-profit home in Baltimore with 117 certified beds, and its inspection record is genuinely solid, a four-star health inspection rating and no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level. What pulls it back is staffing: 3.68 nurse hours per resident day sits about 5% under the national average, weekend coverage drops roughly 14% below its own weekday level, and turnover runs 49.5% against a national 45.8%. The three abuse-related deficiencies on record are worth asking about directly. Quality measures also rate four stars, so care outcomes look better than the raw staffing numbers would suggest. Ask how the weekend schedule actually gets covered.

Complete Care At Springbrook runs about 3.45 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips another 8% below what it does on weekdays. The inspection record is where the real concern sits: 47 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the last health inspection dating to September 2020. That's a long gap, and it means the picture regulators have is old. Turnover, at 37.8%, is actually better than the national 45.8%, and the quality measure score is solid. But thin staffing and a stale, crowded deficiency history are hard to overlook.

Towson Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs 132 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing worth noting. At 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 13 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 9 percent below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. The clinical quality scores look strong, but the inspection record tells a different story: 44 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, plus a $10,036 fine. Staff turnover of 48.4 percent runs slightly above the national 45.8 percent. The most recent inspection was February 2026.

Green Acres runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes, 3.48 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 13% below what the building staffs on weekdays. That gap matters, since 51.3% of staff left over the past year, higher than the 45.8% national rate. The 45 deficiencies on record include five tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, which tells you the clinical metrics look better than the day-to-day inspection and staffing picture. Last inspected January 20, 2026.

Sterling Care Rockville sits right at the national average for total nurse staffing, 3.86 hours per resident day, but that average hides a problem: weekends run about 14 percent thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your family sees on a Tuesday isn't what shows up on a Sunday. The staffing star rating lands at 2 out of 5, and turnover is 46.2 percent, essentially the national rate, meaning nearly half the nursing staff turns over in a year. Twenty-nine deficiencies appear on the current record, four of them abuse-related, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was January 22, 2025, so the record is recent. Quality measures score well; staffing doesn't match.

Autumn Lake Healthcare at Riverview runs 238 beds in Essex, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.50 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover is 35.1%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, and the home's 41 deficiencies include none at the harm or jeopardy level, though 4 are abuse-related. The last inspection was June 3, 2025, and CMS rated its quality measures 4 out of 5. It's a for-profit limited liability company, so weigh the modest staffing shortfall against the steadier retention.

Autumn Lake Healthcare At Overlea runs 160 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the place to start: 64 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. The health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5, though the most recent visit was in April 2025, so the picture is current. Nurse staffing averages 3.25 hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national figure, and weekends run about 6 percent thinner than weekdays. Turnover, at 42.4 percent, is actually slightly better than the national rate. Resident care measures rate 4 out of 5, but thin coverage and that deficiency history are the bigger story.

Allegany Health Nursing and Rehab runs 153 beds in Cumberland under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the story starts. At 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 13% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. What stands out in the other direction is turnover: 28.1% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning workers here tend to stay. The inspection record is mixed, a 4/5 health inspection star, but 23 deficiencies on file, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus $18,636 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was April 2026.

Weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover is 52.5% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses your relative sees may change often. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 73 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. Its quality measure score is strong, but that reflects charted care, not the staffing and inspection problems underneath.

Encore At Turf Valley runs 91 certified beds in Ellicott City under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.39 hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real strength. But weekends dip about 13% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 60.4% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people providing that care keep changing. The current inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. Inspections are recent, dated May 2025. The federal quality measure score sits at 2 out of 5, which doesn't match the stronger staffing picture.

The Nursing and Rehab Center at Stadium Place runs 49 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing is thinner than most: 3.61 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 15% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 51%, 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 heavier concern, 60 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, from a July 2025 survey.

Turnover is 47.1%, slightly above the national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 60 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse.

Future Care Irvington runs 4.18 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, which is a real point in its favor. But look at the rest: weekend staffing drops roughly 10% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit, and annual turnover sits at 50.7% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 44 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,417. The last inspection was September 2025, so the picture is current. Staffing quantity is decent; consistency isn't, and that gap shows in the numbers.
