Staff turnover
47%
Serious cites

Whispering Hills runs lean on nursing hours, 2.97 per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's roughly a quarter less hands-on time than the typical American nursing home, and weekends dip another 7% below the home's own weekday pace, so the thinnest coverage lands on the days families visit most. Staff turnover sits at 47.1%, just above the national figure. The 29 deficiencies on the current record include one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection is dated February 2026. Its quality measure score is perfect even as staffing scores poorly, a split worth asking about directly.

Shaker Gardens runs lean on nursing hours, 3.18 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 9% thinner than weekdays. That staffing gap sits alongside a 3/5 staffing star, but turnover at 40.8% actually beats the national 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay. The inspection record is the stronger part of the story: 17 deficiencies on file, none of them harm-level or abuse-related, and the most recent state visit was October 2024. Seven fines totaling $35,863 show the paperwork has slipped more than once, though nothing that endangered a resident.

Arbors At Sylvania runs 77 certified beds in Toledo under corporate, for-profit ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.86 hours per resident day, almost exactly the national average, but weekends drop about 14% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover lands at 47.4%, slightly above the national 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing staff turns over in a year. The inspection record shows 32 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. Its last inspection was April 2025, so the record is recent. Quality measures score well; the staffing picture is average at best.

Embassy of Swanton runs a 68-bed for-profit home in Fulton County, and the numbers pull in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 4.27 hours per resident day, roughly 11 percent above the national average, which is genuinely good, but that average hides a 59.2 percent annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, and weekends run about 4 percent leaner than weekdays. On inspections, the home earned 4 stars, with 17 deficiencies on record but none at the harm level and none abuse-related; its last inspection was August 2024. Quality measures scored 5 stars. The staffing star rating tells a different story than the raw hours, which is worth asking about.

Austinburg Nsg And Rehab Ctr runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its 3.74 nurse staffing hours per resident day sit slightly under the national average of 3.86. Weekends thin out further, about 7% below the home's own weekday staffing, which matters if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. Annual turnover comes in at 42%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The current inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated January 30, 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, land at 3 out of 5.

Falling Water Healthcare Center is a 135-bed for-profit home in Strongsville, and the numbers tell two different stories. Its quality measure score is perfect, but that's a self-reported picture; the staffing score sits at 2 out of 5, with nurses providing 3.34 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops about 4% below weekdays, and annual turnover hits 51.5%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because constant churn is hard on residents who need consistency. The inspection history shows 20 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $10,839. The most recent inspection was in August 2025, so the record is current. Nothing here suggests abuse, but the pattern of thin staffing and high turnover is worth asking about directly.

Dayspring of Miami Valley, a for-profit home in Fairborn with 133 beds, has a clean recent inspection record, nine deficiencies on file, none causing harm or involving abuse, and the state visited as recently as March 2026. Its staffing sits slightly above the national average at 3.96 nurse hours per resident day, though weekends run about 9% leaner than weekdays, and turnover at 48.1% edges past the national rate. The inspection and quality-measure ratings are both top marks; staffing earns a middle score, which is the honest picture here, good care on paper, with room to steady the workforce.

Terrace View Gardens sits in Cincinnati with 82 certified beds and a corporate for-profit owner. The clinical picture is genuinely strong, a 5/5 quality measure rating and a 4/5 on health inspections, with 10 deficiencies on record and none rising to harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse. The catch is staffing. At 3.38 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 12% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday numbers. Annual turnover of 48.1% edges past the national 45.8%. A recent inspection in February 2026 means the record is current. Good care metrics, thin coverage, worth asking how weekends actually feel on the floor.

Cumberland Pointe runs on 3.18 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 18 percent under the national figure, and weekends dip about 10 percent below its own weekdays. That staffing level is the main thing dragging the numbers down. Turnover is the bright spot: 24.5 percent against a national average near 46 percent, so the aides and nurses here tend to stay. The inspection record shows 39 deficiencies, none at the harm level, one tied to abuse, with a survey completed in September 2025. Corporate-owned, 75 beds, mid-range marks on inspections, quality measures, and staffing alike.

Hillspring runs 140 beds in Springboro under limited-liability, for-profit ownership, and its last health inspection came back clean enough in November 2024 to earn a top inspection rating from CMS, with six total deficiencies on record and none involving harm, jeopardy, or abuse. That's a genuinely good paper trail. The staffing picture is thinner than it looks: 3.87 nurse hours per resident day sits essentially at the national average of 3.86, weekend coverage drops about 13% below weekday levels, and 49.3% annual turnover runs above the 45.8% national figure, which is why CMS rates staffing 2 out of 5 even as quality measures score 5.

Shawneespring runs 140 beds in Harrison, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially dead even with the national average, not above it. The problem is consistency: weekends run about 8% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover hits 53.7% against a national 45.8%, so the same faces aren't always there. Inspections tell the harder story, 16 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a $28,190 fine and a two-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was March 5, 2026. A four-star quality measure score doesn't cancel out a two-star staffing and inspection picture at a for-profit corporate home.

Venetian Gardens sits in Loveland, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a five-star health inspection score, only five deficiencies on the books, and none of them at the harm or jeopardy level. That last inspection came in January 2025, so the picture is current. Where the home gives ground is staffing: 3.74 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, with weekends running about 10% lighter than weekdays and turnover at 47.1%, slightly above the national figure. Two abuse-related deficiencies also appear on the record. The care environment looks well-monitored; the question is whether there are consistently enough hands on deck, especially on weekends.

The Avenue at Medina runs a leaner floor than most: 3.67 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 9% below its own weekday levels. That thinner coverage shows up in the staffing star rating, which sits at 2 out of 5, and in a 50% annual turnover rate that edges past the national 45.8%, you may see unfamiliar faces. What works in its favor is a clean recent inspection history: 23 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last survey dated February 2026. Quality measures score 5 out of 5. For-profit corporate ownership. Worth asking how they cover a weekend call-off.

Avenue At Aurora is a for-profit LLC home with 98 certified beds in Aurora, and its inspection record has some real strengths: 14 deficiencies on file, only one at the harm or jeopardy level, none tied to abuse, and a recent inspection date of January 20, 2026. The clinical quality measures also look strong at 5 out of 5 stars. Where the picture weakens is staffing. At 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, the home runs about 7% below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 10% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 54.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for residents are often new.

Arlington Pointe, a 107-bed for-profit in Middletown, runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.67 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 48.4%, a few points above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because that staffing category is where its federal rating lands at just 2 out of 5 stars even as inspections and quality measures each hold 4. The good news: nine deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a clean inspection as recently as December 2025.

Advanced Health Care of Cincinnati runs a 46-bed for-profit home in Hamilton County, and the staffing numbers are a mixed picture. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.47 hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 63.8% against a national 45.8%. That churn matters more than the headline hours, since it shapes who's actually at the bedside. The current record shows 20 deficiencies, one abuse-related, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was June 23, 2025. Quality measures rate 4 out of 5 stars; inspection and staffing each sit at 3.

Taylor Springs Health Campus runs below the national average on nurse staffing, 3.58 hours per resident day against 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage, which matters most when families visit and fewer eyes are watching. The inspection record shows 36 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a $17,225 fine; that history sits behind a 2-star health inspection rating even though the quality measure score is perfect at 5 stars. Staff turnover of 46.8% is slightly above the national average, so the people providing care change often, and the most recent inspection was in April 2025.

Pleasantview runs 4.46 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average, and its quality measure rating sits at the top of the CMS scale. So the care model isn't the problem. Retention is. Annual turnover hits 61.4% against a national average of 45.8%, and weekend staffing drops about 17% below its own weekday level, meaning the aide who knows your mother on Tuesday may be gone by spring, and the weekend crew is thinner than the weekday one. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, including one at harm level and one abuse-related, with the last survey in June 2024. Corporate-owned, 162 beds.

Vancrest Of Urbana runs 75 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11 percent below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15 percent below its own weekday levels, meaning coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record shows 36 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse; the last survey was April 2024. Turnover lands at 44.9 percent, essentially tracking the national 45.8 percent. Quality measures score well, but that's largely built on charted outcomes rather than the hands-on time residents actually receive.

Parma Care Center runs 104 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.76 hours per resident day, a bit under the 3.86 national average, with weekends dropping roughly 18% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover lands at 43.8%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 22 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with the most recent survey dated July 2025. CMS gives it 2 out of 5 stars for both staffing and health inspections, though its quality measure score is 5 out of 5, a split worth asking about directly.
