Our read on Fianna Hills Nursing And Rehabilitation Center

Fianna Hills runs 102 certified beds as a for-profit LLC, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.15 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average. That's a real strength, with one catch: weekends run about 13% leaner than weekdays, so coverage isn't as steady as the headline number suggests. Turnover is the bigger concern at 59.3% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, which makes consistent care harder to sustain. The current record shows 19 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in June 2025.
