Staff turnover

Advanced Health Care Of Sacramento runs on unusually thin turnover for a for-profit LLC, 30.2% against a 45.8% national average, which suggests people stay. Nurse staffing sits at 6.06 hours per resident day, roughly 57% above the 3.86 national figure, though weekends drop about 21% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent survey came in July 2025, so the picture is current. At 40 beds, it's small enough that staffing swings matter more than they would in a larger building.

Acc Care Center runs on unusually heavy staffing for a nursing home, 5.42 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip only about 8% below its own weekday levels, which matters because weekend coverage is where a lot of homes quietly thin out. Turnover sits at 43.3%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection record: 45 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, and six fines totaling $24,087, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was in September 2025, so the picture is current.

University Post-Acute Rehab runs 4.55 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 18% above the national average, and its weekend coverage holds within about 7% of weekdays, a gap that tends to matter more than the raw total. Staff turnover sits at 31.9%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a steadier crew than most corporate-owned homes manage. The tradeoff is a longer deficiency record: 26 findings on the current record, including two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. Inspectors were last on site in May 2025.

Woodside Healthcare Center runs about 4.42 nurse hours per resident day, which is roughly 14% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend staffing dips about 8% below its own weekday level, a gap worth asking about if your family member needs more hands-on help on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 23.8%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The home carries 21 deficiencies on its current record, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. Its last inspection was in November 2024, and it's a for-profit corporation operating 58 certified beds.

Sherwood Healthcare Center runs 62 beds in Sacramento under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers here are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip about 8% below weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family member needs care on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 30%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests a more stable crew than many places. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. State surveyors gave four stars for health inspections and five for quality measures, with three for staffing.

Saylor Lane runs a tight ship on staffing: 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, about 6 percent above the national average, with turnover at just 20 percent against a national 45.8. That retention matters more than the raw hours, because familiar aides tend to notice changes sooner. Weekend coverage dips roughly 9 percent below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Sundays. The inspection record is mixed, 41 deficiencies on file, two tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent visit was in May 2025. Quality measures score well, and the for-profit limited liability ownership is worth knowing when you ask who's actually on the floor.

Staff turnover

Asbury Park runs 139 certified beds under a for-profit LLC, and the nursing hours tell a decent story: 4.41 per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 9% below weekdays, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Staff turnover at 45.2% lands right at the national rate, meaning the people caring for your relative cycle through about as fast as anywhere else. The inspection record is where it gets uneven, 50 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was March 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well; the health inspection side is what holds this one back.

Mckinley Park Care Center runs 86 certified beds in Sacramento under for-profit LLC ownership, and its numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.81 hours per resident day, basically even with the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses stick around longer than at the typical home. The inspection record is the concern, 60 deficiencies, one abuse-related, and a 2/5 health inspection rating, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was January 2026.

Cedarwood Post Acute runs 51 beds in Sacramento under corporate for-profit ownership, and its numbers pull in two directions at once. The clinical quality measures look strong at five stars, and the health inspection rating sits at three, a recent June 2025 survey with 45 total deficiencies on record, three of them abuse-related, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. Where it falls apart is staffing: one star, the lowest CMS gives, even as annual turnover of 37.5% beats the national 45.8%. That combination matters. Better-than-average retention doesn't mean enough hands on deck, and with 51 beds and a for-profit operator, the question worth asking is what the daily aide and nurse coverage actually looks like on the shifts your family would visit.

College Oak runs on 4.33 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 12% above the national average, and its weekend staffing only dips about 9% below weekdays, a smaller drop than many homes show. Turnover sits at 40%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The caution signs are in the inspection record: 25 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $9,814. The most recent inspection was April 2026, so the findings are current, not stale. For-profit, limited liability ownership. The staffing is genuinely solid; the question is whether that care holds up when inspectors look closely.

Sacramento Post-Acute runs 4.65 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 42.3% is slightly better than the typical 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family member needs care on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record shows 33 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related. A February 2026 inspection is recent, and the 5/5 quality measure rating stands out against a 2/5 staffing rating and 3/5 inspections. Corporate-owned, 99 beds.

Windsor Care Center of Sacramento holds 128 certified beds and is owned by a for-profit limited liability company. Its record shows a sharp split: the quality measure rating is strong at 5 out of 5, but staffing sits at the bottom, 1 out of 5, which matters because daily care depends on having enough hands on deck, not on how well a facility documents clinical metrics. The inspection history is heavier than that staffing score alone would suggest, 52 deficiencies on the current record, including eight tied to abuse and one at the harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent inspection dated December 20, 2024. Ask about direct-care staffing levels and how the abuse-related citations were resolved before you decide.

Mid-Town Oaks runs 4.07 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but that staffing thins out on weekends and more than half the nurses turned over last year, 54.1% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record carries 58 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, and the health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, which is a real signal, but it's worth asking how a building with this many cited problems and this much turnover holds that score. The most recent inspection was December 4, 2025, so the record is current. One fine on file, $15,593.

City Creek Post Acute runs a 99-bed for-profit operation in Sacramento, and the staffing picture is more mixed than the headline number suggests. Total nurse hours come in at 4.10 per resident day, about 6% above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the care your family member gets on a Saturday may look thinner than what the tour showed. Staff turnover sits at 47.2%, slightly worse than the national rate, and the current record carries 39 deficiencies, including three tied to abuse and one at the harm level. Three fines total $26,497. The most recent inspection was October 2024.
