Our read on Union Nursing

Union Nursing runs 60 beds in Franklin County under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out: 2.95 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip another 9% below its own weekday level, and 54.5% of staff turn over annually against a national rate near 46%, so the thin coverage is also a moving target. Inspections look steadier, a 4-star health inspection rating, 14 deficiencies on record with none at harm level, though two are abuse-related, and the most recent survey was August 2025. Quality measures also rate 4 stars; staffing rates 2.
