Our read on Springs Of Lima The

The Springs of Lima runs 56 certified beds in Allen County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, 19 deficiencies on file, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, with a survey as recent as July 2025. Nurse staffing sits at 3.86 hours per resident day, right at the national average, though weekends drop roughly 15% below what the home staffs on weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover of 30.6% is well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay longer than at the typical home.
