Jnh-Madison Inn is state-owned, which matters here because it's held to public records and public budgets in a way private operators aren't. The numbers back it up: 4.89 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and turnover at 30.3% when the typical home runs closer to 46%. Three deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with an inspection as recent as October 2025. The one soft spot is weekends, when staffing drops about 18% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits Saturday or Sunday. Otherwise, the record is clean and unusually well-staffed.

Forrest General Hospital's skilled nursing unit runs on 8.20 nurse hours per resident day, more than double the national average of 3.86. That's an unusual number, most homes don't come close. Weekend staffing dips about 13% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 44.8%, essentially matching the national rate, so retention here isn't a problem or a strength. The county-owned unit carries two deficiencies on its current record, neither at the harm level and none abuse-related, with its last inspection in May 2026. All three CMS star ratings land at five.

Martha Coker Green House Home in Yazoo City runs on unusually heavy staffing for a nursing home, 5.63 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and it holds a five-star CMS staffing rating. Weekend coverage does dip about 14% below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 26.8%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The home is a nonprofit with 15 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was in September 2024. For families weighing a move, the pattern here is steady hands and few serious problems.

Jnh-Jefferson Inn runs on 4.92 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home. Weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets covered. Turnover sits at 43.5%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, and the current record shows 15 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. State-run ownership means public accountability, though the three-out-of-five inspection rating suggests room remains. The last inspection was October 2025, so the picture is current. Strong staffing and quality scores carry this home; the inspection history is where you'd want to ask questions.

Ms Care Center Of Raleigh runs on 5.00 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 29% more than the national average of 3.86, a real margin, though weekends dip about 18% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Staff turnover sits at 31.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The home carries four deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was in February 2025. For-profit, limited liability ownership, 110 certified beds, with CMS giving it four stars for health inspections and quality measures and five for staffing.

Ashland Health and Rehabilitation runs on 4.42 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 15% more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 31.7% sits well under the national 45.8%, two numbers that tend to matter more to daily life than anything else on a report. The trade-off: weekend staffing drops about 17% below its own weekday level, so a Saturday shift looks different from a Tuesday one. Inspections in April 2026 produced ten deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one was abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Benton County's for-profit corporate owner has kept this building's record clean enough to earn top marks on health inspections and staffing.

Merit Health Wesley runs a small 25-bed unit in Hattiesburg, and the numbers that stand out most are staffing and inspection history. At 5.83 nurse hours per resident day, it puts roughly half again as much nursing time into each resident as the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover of 33.3% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. Seven deficiencies on record, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in February 2026. The weaker spot is quality measures, which land mid-range.

Jnh-Jaquith Inn runs on 5.14 total nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and that shows up in the federal star ratings: five out of five on staffing and on quality measures, four on health inspections. Weekend coverage drops about 19% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 51.7%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for how well anyone knows your parent. Seven deficiencies on the current record, none causing harm and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in February 2026. It's state-run, which shapes both the accountability and the pace of change.

Vicksburg Convalescent Center runs on 4.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent above the national average, and its staff turnover of 22.6 percent is about half the national rate, that kind of retention usually means people stay because the place is manageable to work in. The one mark against it: weekend staffing drops about 23 percent from weekday levels, so ask specifically who's on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. Otherwise the record is thin in the way you want, a single deficiency on file, nothing at the harm level, nothing abuse-related, and an inspection from April 2026. A for-profit corporation owns its 100 beds.

Golden Age runs a leaner ship than most. At 4.74 nurse hours per resident day, it beats the national average by roughly 23%, and its 26.9% turnover sits well below the 45.8% norm, a sign that caregivers tend to stay. Weekends thin out about 17% from weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets managed. Sixteen deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related; that's worth a direct question. The last inspection was November 2024. A three-star inspection and quality score with five-star staffing suggests a home carried by its floor staff. Nonprofit ownership means no shareholder pressure, which often shows up in exactly this pattern.

Wilkinson County Senior Care runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 60-bed home, 5.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 41% above the national average, and that shows up in a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 34.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, and the home has a clean inspection record: 12 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with its most recent inspection in August 2025. The 3-out-of-5 quality measure rating is the softer spot. It's a for-profit limited liability company.

Tallahatchie General Hosp Ecf runs on county money, and the staffing numbers reflect that: 4.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 13% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 33.7%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record, 12 deficiencies currently, including two at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a single $11,450 fine. The most recent inspection was October 2025. Solid staffing and stable retention, but the harm-level findings are the part a family should ask about directly.

Pearl River Co Nursing Home runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 105-bed nonprofit, 5.95 nurse hours per resident day, well above the 3.86 national figure. The catch is weekends, when hours drop roughly a quarter below the weekday pace, so coverage isn't as steady as the top-level number suggests. Staff turnover sits at 39.3%, better than the 45.8% national average, which matters for residents who value seeing the same faces. Nine deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The last inspection came in February 2025, so the picture is current.

Shady Lawn runs a hundred beds in Vicksburg under corporate ownership, and the numbers here mostly hold up. Nurse staffing sits at 4.01 hours per resident day, roughly 4% above the national average, and the five-star staffing rating backs that up, though weekend coverage dips about 11% below what the home manages on weekdays. Staff turnover is the standout: 29.6% against a national average near 46%, which suggests people actually stay. The inspection record is clean where it matters most, five deficiencies total with none at harm level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in March 2026. Quality measures come in at three stars, softer than everything else.

Jefferson Davis Community Hospital Ecf runs on unusually strong staffing for a small rural home, 4.66 nurse hours per resident day, about a fifth more than the national average, and it shows in a five-star staffing rating. Weekend coverage drops roughly 21% below its own weekday level, so ask how that gap gets covered. Turnover sits at 34% against a national 45.8%, which matters for whether residents see the same faces. The health inspection rating is solid at four stars and the record shows ten deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. Quality measures are the weak spot at two stars, so press on falls, weight loss, and medication numbers before deciding.

Diversicare Of Tylertown runs 60 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its recent inspection record are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 17% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits Saturday or Sunday. Turnover lands at 43.6%, just under the national 45.8%, which for a smaller rural home is reasonable. The ten deficiencies on record include one abuse-related finding, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was January 2026, so the picture is current.

The numbers at Pontotoc Health & Rehab Center are mostly doing what you'd want them to. Nurse staffing runs 4.13 hours per resident per day, a little above the national average, and while weekends drop roughly 19% below the home's own weekday level, that's the pattern at most places. The standout figure is turnover: 34.6% against a national average near 46%, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents' routines. Eight deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and a five-star health inspection rating from CMS as recently as December 2025. For-profit corporate ownership is worth knowing, but nothing here suggests the corners that ownership type sometimes cuts.

Clinton Healthcare runs on 4.04 total nurse hours per resident per day, a bit above the national average, and its 27% turnover is well under the 45.8% typical elsewhere. The catch is weekends: coverage drops roughly a quarter below the home's own weekday levels, so care can thin out exactly when families tend to visit. On paper the record is steady, 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, with one abuse-related citation and an inspection dated November 2025. A for-profit LLC of this size carries that kind of inspection history; the staffing numbers, especially weekend consistency, are what a family should actually ask about.

Quitman County Health & Rehab runs 4.62 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 38.8% sits below the national rate of 45.8%, a sign people tend to stay. Weekends are thinner, though, with staffing about 24% under weekday levels, so a Saturday or Sunday visit may feel different from a Tuesday. The home carries 10 deficiencies on its current record, none of them at the harm level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was in August 2024. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, staffing, land at 4 out of 5.

Pontotoc Nursing Home runs lean in a good way on staffing, 4.27 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, and the low 28.6% turnover means the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 18% below what the home staffs during the week, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday shift. Seven deficiencies sit on the current record, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was July 2025. Quality measures score low even as staffing scores high, which is worth asking about directly.
