Our read on Katherine Luther Residential Hlth Care & Rehab

Katherine Luther Residential in Clinton is a 280-bed nonprofit home run by a church group, and its numbers tell a split story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.49 hours per resident day, roughly 10 percent under the national average, and weekends run about 16 percent thinner than weekdays, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the brighter spot at 34.9 percent, well under the national 45.8 percent, which suggests a steadier workforce than many homes manage. The inspection record is the real concern: 33 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and $80,558 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was August 2024.
