Orchardview runs on thin staffing. At 3.39 nurse hours per resident per day, it sits about 12% under the national average of 3.86, and the weekend numbers don't drop further, so there's no extra coverage cushion when census or acuity spikes. The bigger red flag is turnover: 70.8% annually, against a national average of 45.8%. That's a building where most of the people caring for your relative will be gone within a year. The inspection record backs that up. Nineteen deficiencies on file, four of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, five tied to abuse. Three fines totaling $94,905. The most recent inspection was January 2025, so the record is current, not stale. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, land at 2 out of 5.

Meridian Care Monte Vista runs 4.74 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, but that raw number hides two problems: weekend staffing drops about 15% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 68.4% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people providing that care are new and likely to leave. The inspection record is where it gets harder to defend, 49 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with fines totaling $28,345 and a February 2026 inspection still the most recent. The staffing ratio looks good on paper, but a home where two-thirds of caregivers turn over each year and inspectors keep finding serious problems isn't one where that number translates into steady care.

If you're weighing Lakeside for someone you love, the staffing numbers are the place to start. At 3.13 nurse hours per resident day, this for-profit home runs roughly 19% below the national average, and weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 82.2% against a national average of 45.8%, which means the people caring for your family member are likely to change often. The record shows 44 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in April 2025. That's a lot of history for a 93-bed building.

Forest City Rehab has 213 beds and a for-profit LLC owner, and the numbers behind its record are hard to read as anything but trouble. Nurse staffing sits at 2.39 hours per resident day, roughly 38% under the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage happens when families tend to visit. Inspectors have cited 65 deficiencies, including 10 at harm or jeopardy level and 11 tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $192,920. Staff turnover at 41% is actually a touch better than the 45.8% national figure, but that's the lone bright spot in an otherwise rough record, and the most recent inspection closed in November 2025.

Fairfield Senior Living & Rehabilitation runs 104 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at. At 3.05 nurse hours per resident day, it's about a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips even further below its own weekday level. The inspection record is heavier than that gap alone suggests: 45 deficiencies, eight of them serious enough to put residents at harm or jeopardy, four tied to abuse, and eight fines totaling $126,045. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so this is current, not stale. When resident care measures and staffing both sit at the low end, the pattern usually reflects how the building is run day to day.

Harrison Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs on thin staffing. At 3.18 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 18% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 11% below what the home manages on weekdays, meaning the thinnest coverage lands when backup is hardest to find. The inspection record backs that up: 39 deficiencies, six of them serious enough to threaten resident harm, plus five fines totaling $34,409. All three CMS ratings, health inspections, quality measures, staffing, come in at one star out of five. Corporate-owned and certified for 54 beds, its most recent inspection was April 2, 2026.

Riverdell Care Center runs about 2.82 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 27% below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops another 16% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 69.4% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people around your family member change often. The good news: inspectors gave it four stars and found no abuse or harm-level deficiencies, though 10 total issues remain on the record, with the most recent inspection in December 2024. The quality measure rating tells a different story from the inspection score, and that gap between a clean-ish inspection and thin, unstable staffing is what the numbers actually show.

Brent B Tinnin Manor runs 60 beds in Ellington under individual for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the place to start. At 3.20 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 17% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 23% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 74.5% is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new to the building. The inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent survey was March 2025.

Eldon Nursing & Rehab runs on 3.36 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends dip about 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That thin coverage sits behind a CMS staffing rating of 1 out of 5, and it's hard to keep anyone long-term: annual turnover is 77.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are new to the building. The record shows 32 deficiencies, including 4 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 abuse-related, with three fines totaling $79,671. Inspectors were last in on February 26, 2026.

Carrie Elligson Gietner Health Care Center runs 130 certified beds in Saint Louis, and the numbers behind its record aren't reassuring. Nurse staffing sits at 2.48 hours per resident day, roughly 36% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection history carries 55 deficiencies, seven of them at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, along with two CMS fines totaling $92,561. The most recent inspection was in June 2024. Corporate for-profit ownership and a one-star inspection and staffing rating round out a picture worth weighing carefully against other options.

St Joe Manor runs 155 certified beds in Bonne Terre under for-profit LLC ownership, and its most recent inspection in February 2025 produced 28 deficiencies, none at the harm level, but one tied to abuse, which is the kind of citation families should ask about directly. Staffing tells a starker story than the inspection record: the home earns just 1 of 5 stars for staffing, and annual turnover hits 73.3% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning roughly three of every four employees leave within a year. High turnover at that scale usually shows up as inconsistent caregivers and less experienced hands on the floor. Worth weighing carefully against the quality measure rating of 1 out of 5.

Bluebird Wellness and Rehabilitation runs on 2.96 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about 18% below what the home itself staffs Monday through Friday. Turnover sits at 62.3% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses present on any given shift are often new to the building. The inspection record backs up the numbers: 84 deficiencies, eight of them serious enough to put residents in harm’s way and four tied to abuse, plus a $234,836 fine. CMS gave its lowest marks to both staffing and health inspections. At 188 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, this is a home where the people providing care are stretched thin and frequently replaced.

Heritage Manor runs on 2.87 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 72.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with $30,133 in fines and a November 2025 inspection. Federal ratings put staffing and quality measures both at one star.

Rock Creek runs on 2.84 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly 27% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in turnover: 90.3% of staff left over the past year, double the national rate of 45.8%. The current record carries 36 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus $82,579 in fines across two events. Inspectors last visited in August 2025. Corporate-owned and Medicare-certified for 120 beds, the home scores 1 out of 5 on CMS staffing and 2 on health inspections, while its quality measure rating sits at 3.

The Rio at Mission Trails runs 124 beds under hospital district ownership in San Antonio, and its nurse staffing sits just under the national average, 3.71 hours per resident day against 3.86. That small gap is not the real story. Weekend staffing drops roughly 16% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 97.2%, more than double the national rate of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses at your mother's bedside are, statistically, almost certain to be new within the year. On inspections, the home carries 32 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, with two fines totaling $153,825.

Pine Knoll Path of Journey runs 122 beds in Carrollton under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, 11 deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and a survey as recent as April 2025. The problem is the floor. Nurses give 3.18 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 12% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Every single nursing position turned over last year, 100%, compared with about 45.8% nationally. A recent inspection tells you what a surveyor saw that day; it doesn't tell you who's left to answer a call light on a Sunday evening.

Jesup Ridge of Journey LLC runs 72 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 3.38 hours per resident day, about 13% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 58.8% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning more than half the caregiver workforce turns over in a year. The current inspection record carries 21 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, plus a $45,968 fine. The most recent inspection was May 30, 2025.

Tybee Island Trails of Journey runs 50 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 1.74 hours per resident day, roughly 55% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 30% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are also the least supervised. Staff turnover is 69.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new to the building. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection dated January 30, 2026. CMS rates staffing 1 out of 5 stars, health inspections and quality measures each 2 out of 5. If you're considering this home, ask directly how weekend coverage is staffed and how abuse allegations get reported and resolved.

Its last inspection was September 28, 2025, so the record is recent. Ask about direct-care hours on weekends before you decide.

Nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends drop about 8% below what the home itself provides on weekdays, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit.
