Our read on Benderson Family Skilled Nursing And Rehab Center

Benderson Family runs 45 beds in Sarasota under corporate ownership, and the numbers hold up well. Nurse staffing sits at 4.72 hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip only about 6% below weekday levels, a smaller drop than many homes show. Turnover is 46.3%, essentially matching the national 45.8%, so you're not looking at a churning floor staff. Ten deficiencies appear on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in June 2025. The one caveat: corporate for-profit ownership means decisions about this building get made somewhere else.
