Our read on Elim Wellspring Health Care Center
Elim Wellspring runs about 5.05 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more staffing than the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip only about 14% below its own weekday level, which is a smaller drop than many homes show. The record is clean where it counts: two deficiencies total, none causing harm and none tied to abuse, with an inspection completed in December 2025. Staff turnover sits at 46.3%, nearly identical to the national 45.8%, so retention here looks typical rather than exceptional. As a nonprofit, it isn't managing to a quarterly earnings number. The staffing and inspection numbers are doing the talking.
