Our read on Fair Oaks Healthcare Center

Fair Oaks Healthcare Center runs on a genuinely strong staffing model, 4.36 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only modestly below weekdays. Turnover sits at 30.4%, well under the 45.8% national rate, which matters for consistency of care. The trouble is the inspection record: 57 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm level and 4 tied to abuse, with a health inspection rating of just 2 out of 5. Fines are modest at $8,990, and the most recent inspection was February 2026. Strong staffing and quality scores are pulling against a thin inspection history at this for-profit, limited-liability operation.
