Our read on Ridgeview Skilled Nursing Facility

Ridgeview runs on a lean 45 beds in San Diego, and the staffing numbers are the real story here: 5.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 38% above the national average. That's a meaningful cushion, though weekends dip about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. Turnover sits at 55.1%, nearly ten points above the national rate, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with six fines totaling $33,238 and a recent June 2025 survey. For-profit individual ownership is worth asking about directly.
