Saint Mary's Asbury Ridge is a nonprofit home in Erie with 80 certified beds, and the numbers behind its grade hold up pretty well. Nurse staffing sits at 4.21 hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, though weekend coverage drops about 13% compared to weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is clean where it counts: four deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in September 2025. Its health inspection rating is 5 out of 5, with quality measures at 4 and staffing at 4.

0

Nurse staffing here runs about 3.42 hours per resident day, roughly 12 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 6 percent below the home's own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage tends to land when families are most likely to visit. That said, turnover is 28.8 percent against a national average near 46 percent, meaning the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year than at the typical home. The current record shows 34 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though two are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The last inspection was February 2026, so the picture is recent. It's a for-profit limited liability company with 74 beds.

Scottdale Healthcare runs high on nurse hours, 4.43 per resident day against a national average around 3.86, and that's a real strength at a 35-bed home. The catch is consistency: weekends fall roughly 15% below weekday coverage, so the staffing you see on paper isn't always the staffing present on a Sunday. Turnover sits slightly above the national rate, and the inspection record is crowded: 48 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in December 2025. None of those deficiencies rose to harm or jeopardy level, which matters, but the volume and the abuse citations are what hold this home's grade down despite strong staffing numbers.

The Pines at Philadelphia runs on 5.43 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national figure of 3.86, that staffing cushion is the main reason its numbers hold up. It isn't uniform, though: weekends drop about 20% below the home's own weekday coverage, and turnover sits at 48.8%, slightly worse than the 45.8% national rate. Twenty deficiencies appear on the current record with none at the harm level, but two are abuse-related, which families should ask about directly. Inspectors were last on site in July 2025, and the for-profit corporate owner operates 49 beds. Quality and inspection scores both come in strong; the weaker spots are the ones that don't show up in a star rating.

Presbyterian Homes-Presby runs lean on nurse hours, 3.63 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 9% thinner than weekdays. Yet its staff tends to stay: turnover of 35.8% beats the 45.8% national figure by a wide margin, and CMS gives the staffing and quality measures 4 and 5 stars. The inspection record is where things get harder to square. Forty deficiencies are on file, four of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse, and three fines totaling $32,949. A November 2025 inspection means the picture is current. Steady caregivers, yes, but a documented pattern of problems that stability hasn't erased.

Embassy Of Park Avenue runs 173 beds in Meadville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.62 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends run roughly 5% thinner than weekdays, so coverage dips exactly when families tend to visit. What stands out is retention: 25.8% turnover against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses largely stay put, which matters more for daily care than a single staffing number. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last visit in December 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing is the weaker pillar.

Rittenhouse Post Acute runs 4.68 nurse hours per resident day, about 21% above the national average of 3.86, that's a real staffing cushion, though weekends dip roughly 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Turnover sits at 40.7%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 25 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with a 3/5 inspection rating that pulled down an otherwise strong 5/5 on quality measures. A May 2025 inspection means the findings are recent. For a 38-bed for-profit home, the direct-care hours are the selling point; the survey history is what you'd want to ask about directly.

Homewood Living Martinsburg runs a nonprofit shop with 129 beds, and the numbers suggest decent day-to-day care. Nurse staffing sits at 4.31 hours per resident day, about 12% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 11% below its own weekday level, so families should ask how that gap gets managed. Staff turnover lands at 31.4%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters for continuity. On the record: 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth a direct question. A December 2025 inspection and 4 out of 5 stars for both health inspections and staffing back up the pattern.

Forestview runs on a nonprofit model with 80 beds in Erie, and the numbers show a home that's mostly steady but not perfect. Nurse staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, just above the national average, though weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage, worth asking about if you're planning visits or worrying about Saturday care. The inspection record is clean where it matters: three total deficiencies, none at the harm level, no abuse citations, and the most recent state visit was in August 2025. Staff turnover lands at 46.8%, right in line with the national rate. The quality measure score is the softer spot here, sitting at three stars against five for inspections and staffing.

Conemaugh Memorial's TCU runs a genuinely unusual staffing level for a nursing home, about 5.99 nurse hours per resident day, well clear of the national average, and its inspection and quality scores both sit at the top of CMS's five-star scale. The record is clean where it counts: five deficiencies, none causing harm, nothing abuse-related, and a recent inspection. The catch is the workforce itself. Every position turns over roughly once a year, more than double the national rate, and weekend coverage drops off noticeably from weekday levels. Those two facts don't cancel out the strong numbers, but they tell you the care you see on a Tuesday may not be the care you see on a Saturday.

Locust Grove Retirement Village runs 104 certified beds in Mifflin under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits just barely above the national average, 3.91 hours per resident day against 3.86. That thin margin matters, because weekend coverage drops roughly 17% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the cushion you see in the yearly figure isn't there every day of the week. Turnover is the genuine bright spot: 34.3% against a national 45.8%. But the inspection record carries 39 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus a $12,831 fine. The most recent inspection was June 27, 2025, so the picture is current. Ask about weekend staffing and those abuse-related citations directly.

Barclay Friends runs 4.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend staffing does dip about 5% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits mostly on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record is thin in a good way: one deficiency total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the last inspection was June 2025, so the picture is current. CMS rated the health inspection side 4 out of 5, with quality measures and staffing each at 3. As a nonprofit corporation with 64 certified beds, it's small enough that you'll likely get to know the staff. The staffing number is the real strength here; the mid-range quality and staffing stars are what keep it from scoring higher.

Alpine Valley runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership out in Lebanon County, and the numbers show a stable operation. Nurse staffing sits at 3.94 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends dip about 8% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover of 32.1% is well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay, and eight deficiencies on record with none at the harm level and none abuse-related is a clean sheet. The last inspection was September 2024, so the picture is current. The main soft spot is staffing depth relative to what the top-rated homes carry.

Harmon House runs about 109 beds in Mount Pleasant under for-profit LLC ownership, and its current inspection record carries 43 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to involve actual harm or jeopardy, plus three abuse-related citations and $32,394 in fines across four penalties. The last inspection was May 2026, so the record is recent. Staffing sits at 3.69 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends drop about 7% below the home's own weekday coverage. What stands out in the other direction is turnover: 28.6% against a national average near 46%, which suggests people tend to stay. The state inspection rating lands well below the quality measure score, and that gap is worth asking about directly.

Quality Life Services - Henry Clay runs a tight ship on inspections: four deficiencies on record, none causing harm or involving abuse, and a five-star health inspection rating from CMS with a visit as recent as July 2025. Staffing is where it slips, 3.50 nurse hours per resident day sits about 9% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 5% thinner than weekdays, though a 31.3% turnover rate is well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people who are there tend to stay. For 74 beds in a for-profit setting, the care appears consistent; the question is whether there are enough hands on weekend shifts.

Juniper Village at Brookline runs a leaner weekend than weekday, with staffing dropping about 19% on Saturdays and Sundays, so if you're planning visits or asking about care then, that gap is worth knowing. Overall nurse hours sit at 4.65 per resident day, roughly a fifth above the national average, and turnover lands at 45.5%, essentially the national rate, not better. The inspection record shows 16 deficiencies with none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in March 2026. State College families weighing this one against others nearby are looking at a home that staffs generously on paper but carries a persistent weekend dip.

Rosewood Gardens runs a tight ship on the things that matter most. Four deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a February 2026 inspection that's still fresh, that's a clean paper trail for a 146-bed for-profit. Staff retention is unusually steady at 24.8% turnover against a national average near 46%, so you're less likely to see a rotating cast of unfamiliar aides. The tradeoff is daily coverage: 3.70 nurse hours per resident sits about 4% under the national figure, and weekends dip roughly 6% below the home's own weekday staffing. Ask specifically who's on the floor on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Maybrook Hills runs 240 certified beds in Altoona under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover lands at 43.8%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so the workforce is a bit more stable than average even with the thinner weekend hours. The current record carries 55 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but one abuse-related, and the last inspection was August 2025.

Ivy Hill runs 145 beds in Philadelphia under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national mark, 3.84 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, with weekends dipping about 7% below its own weekday levels. Turnover matches the national average at 45.8%, so retention isn't the problem here. The inspection record is: 47 deficiencies on file, four tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent look came in March 2026. Quality measures score well and staffing holds up, but that inspection history is the piece worth asking about directly.

Uniontown Nursing And Rehab runs 120 certified beds as a for-profit LLC, and its nursing hours come in around 3.53 per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend staffing dips about 7% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 25%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses here tend to stick around. Inspections in July 2025 turned up 21 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one was abuse-related; that record lands a mid-range inspection rating while resident outcome measures score at the top.
