Our read on The Eleanor Nursing Care Center

The Eleanor Nursing Care Center runs on 2.67 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a third below the national average, and weekends are thinner still. Its inspection record is the real story: 83 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, plus a $132,957 fine. Those numbers put it in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of serious problems. Turnover at 30.2% is actually better than the national average, which suggests the trouble here isn't a churning workforce so much as too few hands on the floor and a long history of failed inspections.
