Our read on Fremont Healthcare Center

Fremont Healthcare Center runs 115 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and the staffing numbers here are the real story: 4.12 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 7% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 36%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record, 30 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse, plus one fine of $12,051. The most recent inspection was November 2025. Quality measures score well and staffing is strong; the survey history is where a family should ask questions.
