Our read on Willow Wood At Woldenberg Village

Willow Wood runs about 120 beds as a nonprofit, and its nurses put in 4.37 hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent more than the national average of 3.86. That sounds solid until you look at how the hours land: weekend staffing drops about 17 percent below the home's own weekday level, and turnover sits at 50.4 percent against a national 45.8 percent. The current inspection record carries 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $40,248 fine. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so the picture is fairly current. Generous weekday coverage, thinner weekends, and a long deficiency list are the real story here.
