Eamc Lanier Nursing Home runs about 3.79 nurse hours per resident per day, just under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday staffing. The tradeoff is retention: turnover sits at 32.4% against a national 45.8%, and the staffing star rating is 5/5. Its inspection record is clean where it counts, 9 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and a 4/5 inspection rating, though the last full inspection was August 2021, so that picture is aging. Quality measures score 2/5, the weak spot. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders.

Lafayette Extended Care runs 69 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing picture is the weak spot: 3.82 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average of 3.86, weekend coverage drops about 7% below its own weekday level, and CMS gives it 1 out of 5 stars for staffing. Turnover at 41.2% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, with one fine totaling $4,558. That last inspection was January 22, 2020, over five years ago, which matters when you're weighing how current any of this is.

Diversicare Of Lanett runs on 2.81 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 27% under the national average, and weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday level. Half the staff turned over in a year, a bit worse than the 45.8% national figure. On the plus side, inspections have been clean: four deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse citations, and the last visit was March 2023. Quality measures land mid-pack. Ownership is corporate for-profit. The pattern here is a home that inspects well but runs lean day to day, worth asking how thin the weekend shifts actually get.

Lafayette Nursing Home runs 63 certified beds in Chambers County under individual for-profit ownership. The staffing numbers are the first thing a family should sit with: 3.19 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average, with weekend coverage dropping about 23% below its own weekday level. Then there's the inspection record, 13 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, with the most recent state visit back in September 2022. The four-star health inspection rating looks reassuring until you pair it with a one-star staffing rating and a one-star quality measure rating. Worth asking what has changed since that 2022 survey, and who covers weekends.
