Our read on August Healthcare At Leewood

August Healthcare at Leewood runs 157 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits about 4% under the national average at 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, with weekends roughly 11% leaner than its own weekdays. Turnover lands near the national mark at 44.7%. What stands out is the inspection record: 36 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse, with a single $25,488 fine and no inspection since March 2022. The five-star quality measure score contrasts with a one-star health inspection rating, so ask directly how those abuse-related findings were resolved and who is on duty on weekends.
