Our read on Fairview University Trans Serv

Fairview University Trans Serv runs 28 certified beds in Minneapolis under nonprofit ownership, and the numbers behind it are unusually clean. Nurse staffing sits at 9.19 hours per resident day, roughly two and a half times the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage only slips about 7% below weekday levels, so care doesn't thin out when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 30%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. The current record carries zero deficiencies, none at the harm level, no abuse citations, and the last inspection was November 2024, so nothing on file is stale. For a small nonprofit, that combination is rare.
