Altercare of Cuyahoga Falls runs 91 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.90 hours per resident day, barely above the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels. That thin margin matters more when you see annual turnover at 74.1% against a national average of 45.8%, which is a lot of churn for a building this size. The health inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but one abuse-related, with the last inspection in June 2025.

Bath Manor runs 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday staffing. That thin weekend coverage matters more when you look at turnover: 56% of staff left over the past year, against a national rate near 46%. The inspection record carries 46 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with a $14,433 fine. Ownership is a for-profit corporation, and the last inspection was May 13, 2025. Families comparing options here should weigh that staffing and inspection history carefully.

Tallmadge Health & Rehab Center runs 90 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and the numbers tell a split story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.90 hours per resident day, roughly a hair above the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover is 56.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning the people around your family member change often. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 37 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and a CMS health inspection rating of 1 out of 5, though the quality measure rating is 4 out of 5.

Abuse icon on record

Nurse staffing at Arbors At Stow sits at 3.90 hours per resident day, barely above the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays. More telling is the turnover: 53.8% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record is where things get serious, 43 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level, eight involving abuse, and four fines totaling $252,801, with the most recent inspection dated March 2026. A 5/5 quality measure rating stands in odd contrast to a 1/5 inspection rating, but quality measures come from self-reported data, while inspections and fines come from what surveyors actually found.

Abuse icon on record

Wyant Woods runs 180 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its 3.01 nurse staffing hours per resident day land about 22 percent under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping roughly 8 percent below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 40.9 percent, slightly better than the national 45.8 percent, so the issue here isn't retention as much as raw hours per resident. The inspection record carries 61 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 9 abuse-related, plus $153,317 in fines across 2 penalties, and CMS scored its last inspection 1 out of 5 in April 2025. Its quality measure rating is 5 out of 5, which can reflect charted outcomes more than day-to-day coverage.

Nurse hours

The Pavilion at Stow runs about 51 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out: 3.16 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 18% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping another 7% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage shows up in the 1-out-of-5 staffing rating. Turnover sits at 72.1% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses cycling through are often new. Inspections last happened in August 2023, and the record carries 27 deficiencies, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. Health and quality measures both land mid-range at 3 stars, which suggests care isn't falling apart, but the workforce behind it keeps changing.

Twinsburg Post Acute runs 114 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are on the staffing side. Nurse coverage sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 64.3% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which means aides and nurses are cycling through regularly. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 73 deficiencies, seven of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a $70,756 fine and a one-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was March 2024.

Hudson Elms runs on 3.17 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 15% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 76.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. The inspection record backs that up: 45 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with the last inspection in June 2023. Corporate ownership and one $17,610 fine round out the picture. Quality measure scores look strong on paper, but that's family-reported data, and it's hard to see how it holds up when the floor staff keeps changing.

Special Focus Facility

Continuing Healthcare Of Cuyahoga Falls runs 98 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are what stands out first: 3.46 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 7% thinner than weekdays. That gap matters when you're deciding which day to visit. The inspection record is heavier still, 93 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, seven tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $178,725. Annual turnover sits at 77.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aide who knows your mother this month may not be there the next. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care.

The Merriman runs on 3.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 64.9% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. Its inspection record carries 65 deficiencies, three of them at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse; two fines total $134,475, with the most recent inspection in January 2025. A 4/5 on quality measures doesn't offset a 1/5 on staffing and 1/5 on inspections. The corporate owners profit while the floor stays thin.
