Our read on Winner Regional Healthcare Center
Winner Regional Healthcare Center sits in a small South Dakota town and puts more direct nursing time into each resident than most homes in the country, about five hours a day against a national figure near four. That cushion matters, and it's the main reason inspections look solid, with the most recent visit in December 2024. The trouble is what the numbers show underneath the surface: weekend coverage drops roughly a fifth below its own weekday pace, and more than two-thirds of staff turned over last year, well above the typical rate. Eighteen deficiencies sit on the record, including three tied to abuse and one involving actual harm. Quality scores are weak despite the staffing.
