Mountain View Conv Hosp

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Serious cites
0

Mountain View Conv Hosp runs on a for-profit LLC model with 114 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.59 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average of 3.86. Turnover is 26.5% against a national 45.8%, so the same caregivers are more likely to stick around. Weekend staffing dips about 9% below its own weekday level. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 109 deficiencies on file, including one at harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse, with a 1/5 health inspection rating. That's a wide gap between how the place is staffed and how it has actually been cited.

Golden Empire runs 148 beds in Grass Valley under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover lands at 40.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. Inspections are current as of August 2025, and the record shows 30 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though four are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Quality measures score well; the health inspection side is where the record is thinner.

Laurel Park runs on 2.68 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 31 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 10 percent below its own weekday level. Turnover is 35.3 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the problem looks less like a revolving door than like too few hands on any given shift. The current record carries 48 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and nine tied to abuse, against a health inspection rating of 2 out of 5. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, but strong charting doesn't offset thin coverage or that inspection history.

Shandin Hills runs lean on nursing hours: 2.55 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a third below. Weekends dip further, about 7% under the home's own weekday staffing, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 41.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the home's inspection record is recent and clean at the harm level, 18 deficiencies on file, none causing harm or jeopardy, though one is abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. For-profit, LLC-owned, 78 beds. The care numbers look strong; the question is whether the staffing level holds up on a bad night.

Hayes Convalescent Hospital is a small for-profit home in San Francisco, 34 beds, owned by a limited liability company. Its most recent inspection was in November 2025, and the record shows 10 deficiencies, none of which rose to harm or jeopardy, though one was abuse-related. Nurse staffing sits at 4.00 hours per resident day, modestly above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only slightly below weekdays. Annual turnover of 44.1% is a touch better than the national figure. The five-star health inspection rating is the standout here; the one abuse-related deficiency is worth asking about directly before you decide.

Sunny Vista Living Center runs a tight ship on staffing for a 116-bed nonprofit in Colorado Springs. Nurse coverage sits right at the national average of 3.86 hours per resident day, and turnover is where this home separates itself, 26.5% against a national average of 45.8% means caregivers are staying put, which usually shows up in how consistently residents get the same faces. Weekend staffing dips only about 4% below weekdays, a modest drop. The tradeoff is inspection history: 16 deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related finding, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. A July 2025 inspection is recent, and the 3/5 health inspection rating reflects that mixed record. Families weighing a move here should ask directly about that abuse citation.

Briarwood runs 201 certified beds in Denver under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.90 hours per resident day, barely above the national average of 3.86, roughly a 1% edge. Weekends drop about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the floor is thinner when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 44.3%, essentially matching the national rate of 45.8%. The current inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse. One fine totaling $9,110 is on file, and the last inspection was October 2024. Quality measures score high; the inspection history is where the problems concentrate.

Katherine and Charles Hover Green Houses runs 48 beds in Longmont as a nonprofit, and its staffing is the real story here: 5.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only about 5% below weekdays. That consistency matters more than most families realize. The caution side is turnover, at 53.9% against a national 45.8%, and an inspection record showing 13 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm level and 2 tied to abuse, plus six fines totaling $42,262. The most recent inspection was January 2026, so the record is current. Strong hands-on care, but ask directly about staff retention and those abuse-related findings.

Apple Rehab Middletown runs 70 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits around 3.27 hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 37.5 percent, actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record is the harder read: 54 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with the last inspection in October 2024. Quality measures score well, but that inspection history is what a family should ask about directly.

Avon Health Center runs 4.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 46%, almost exactly the national rate, so retention isn't the problem here, the record is. Thirty-one deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus $32,692 in fines across two penalties, add up to more than the staffing numbers alone would suggest. The last inspection was March 17, 2026, and the health inspection rating comes in at 4 out of 5. Ask about those abuse-related findings directly before you visit.

Fairview runs on 4.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 33.7% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, both signs of a stable floor. The trade-off shows up on weekends, when staffing drops about 12% below its own weekday level, and in a record of 19 deficiencies that includes one at the harm level and one abuse-related citation. Its last full inspection was July 2024. A nonprofit corporation operates the 120-bed home. Strong routine staffing and low turnover matter, but that deficiency record is the part worth asking about directly.

Pomperaug Woods runs a small 37-bed unit, and its nurse staffing sits well above the national norm, about 5.26 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally. That's the strongest part of the picture, though weekend coverage dips roughly 12% below its own weekday level, so care isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover lands at 45.1%, essentially matching the national rate. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 20 deficiencies on file, including 2 at the harm level and 3 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $20,872. The most recent inspection was in October 2024. Strong staffing, a rougher paper trail.

Saint Josephs Living Center runs a tight ship on staff retention, 32.5% annual turnover is well under the national average of 45.8%, which means the people caring for your relative are more likely to still be there next year. Nurse staffing sits at 3.91 hours per resident day, just barely above the national figure, though weekends dip about 8% below the home's own weekday coverage. The record isn't spotless: 22 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $13,065 fine. The most recent inspection was December 2024, so the picture is reasonably current.

Pendleton Rehabilitation And Nursing Center runs 120 certified beds in Mystic under for-profit LLC ownership, and its record is mixed in ways families should weigh carefully. Nurse staffing sits at 3.75 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday level, a pattern worth asking about if your relative needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover is 33.7%, noticeably better than the national 45.8%, so the consistent faces are a real point in its favor. The inspection history is a split story: 32 deficiencies on record, one at harm level, though none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in January 2025.

Civita Care Meadowbrook runs a fairly steady ship for a for-profit home in Granby. Its 30 deficiencies sound like a lot until you notice none rise to harm or jeopardy, the serious category, though two abuse-related citations are worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.54 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends dip about 7% below the home's own weekday coverage, so ask how they handle a Saturday fall. What stands out is turnover: 21.3%, less than half the national rate, which suggests aides and nurses tend to stay. A December 2025 inspection is recent, and four-star marks on health inspections and quality measures round out a home that looks solid rather than exceptional.

Civita Care Center At West River runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.61 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday level, so families should ask how that gap gets managed. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.6% against a national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in January 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections land mid-range.

Delmar Nursing & Rehabilitation Center runs 109 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Staffing sits at 3.90 nurse hours per resident day, barely above the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 8% below what the home manages Monday through Friday. Turnover is where it looks better than most: 36.4% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record is the concern, 17 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $23,998 fine. A December 2025 inspection is recent, and the four-star health and quality ratings suggest the home corrected course, but those abuse-related citations are the kind of thing you'd want to ask about directly before deciding.

Cadia Rehabilitation Silverside runs 116 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers sit slightly above the national average, about 3.99 nurse hours per resident day versus 3.86 nationally, though weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover is 48.1%, a bit higher than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents' routines. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 28 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with one fine of $10,608 and a health inspection rating of 2 out of 5. The most recent inspection was March 27, 2025, so the record is current.

Life Care Center Of Punta Gorda runs 180 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits just barely above the national average, 3.91 nurse hours per resident day versus 3.86 nationwide. That margin is thin, and weekends run about 12% lighter than weekdays, so coverage isn't uniform across the week. Staff turnover comes in at 38.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The current inspection record shows six deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a single fine of $8,151; the most recent state visit was July 2024. Quality measures score well, but the two-star health inspection rating is where the real caution lies.

Life Care Center of Melbourne runs 120 certified beds in Brevard County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its numbers are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 3.59 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is where it separates itself: 26.5% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning far fewer people cycling through the building. Inspections show 12 deficiencies on record with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent visit was in September 2025.
