Our read on Waverly Heights
Waverly Heights runs on a nonprofit model with 31 certified beds, and the numbers behind its record are worth a closer look. Nurse staffing sits at 7.52 hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage holds within about 5% of weekday levels, so families visiting on Saturdays and Sundays aren't walking into a thinner floor. Staff turnover is 16.7%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents. Six deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated February 2026. All three CMS star categories, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, come in at five out of five.
