Our read on Jennie B Richmond Chaffee Nursing Home Company Inc

Jennie B Richmond Chaffee in Springville runs a nonprofit home of 80 beds where the day-to-day staffing is genuinely strong, 4.04 nurse hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, and its 32.6% turnover is well below the 45.8% typical elsewhere, which matters because consistent aides know the residents. Weekends thin out about 15% from weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The harder reading is the inspection record: 14 deficiencies, including two at harm level and four tied to abuse, plus a $68,591 fine, and the state's last visit was June 2025. Good care on paper, uneven oversight in practice.
