Our read on Liberty Retirement Community Of Lima Inc

Liberty Retirement Community of Lima runs 60 certified beds in Allen County under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed once you look past the headline number. Total nurse staffing sits at 4.27 hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, but weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. Staff turnover is the harder fact: 59.7% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new and still learning the building. The inspection record shows 51 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5.
