Our read on The Springs Of Camden

The Springs of Camden runs a 106-bed for-profit operation in Ouachita County, and its recent inspection history is a mixed bag. Twenty-three deficiencies show up on the current record with none rising to actual harm or jeopardy, but one abuse-related citation is there, and that's the kind of thing worth asking about directly. Staffing sits slightly above the national average at 3.96 nurse hours per resident day, though weekends drop roughly 14% below weekday coverage, a gap families often feel on Saturday and Sunday. Turnover runs 48.8%, a few points above the national rate, which means the people caring for your relative may not be the same faces month to month. The last inspection was May 2025, so the record is current.
