What to ask about before you visit

Nursing staff turnover of 61%
High turnover means residents rarely see the same caregiver twice. The national average is about 50%.
Our read on Nhc Place Sumner
Nhc Place Sumner runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.47 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday pace, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. The bigger number to sit with is turnover: 61.1% of staff leaving in a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for your relative are often new. Inspections are a genuine strength here: a perfect health inspection rating, seven total deficiencies with none at the harm level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent state visit in March 2026. Quality measures also score 5/5. Ownership is for-profit, a limited liability company.
