Our read on Stonegates

Stonegates runs on unusually heavy staffing, 5.96 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's not a rounding quirk; it's roughly half again as much hands-on time as the typical home, and turnover at 26.4% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people providing that care tend to stay. Weekends thin out about 14% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The caution sits in the inspection record: 20 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one abuse-related, and a $48,696 fine. The most recent inspection came in December 2025, so the picture is current.
