Oak Knoll runs 3.71 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends dip about 21% below its own weekday coverage, that gap is where problems tend to surface. Staff turnover sits at 52.5%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so familiar faces are harder to count on. The record shows 12 deficiencies with none at the harm level, but one is abuse-related, which families should ask about directly. Its last inspection was March 2021, so the picture is years old. Quality measures score well; the inspection history and weekend staffing are the parts worth pressing on.

Diversicare Of Riverchase runs 132 certified beds in Birmingham under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.05 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the brighter spot: 33.8% against a national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most. Nine deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, though the last inspection dates to July 2021, a long stretch without a fresh look.

Northway runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.57 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly a fifth below its own weekday staffing. Nearly 52% of its nursing staff turned over in a year, a rate that sits above the national figure. The health inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, including one tied to abuse; none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. Its last inspection was in April 2024. Quality measures score well, but the staffing and inspection side of the picture is where the gaps sit.

Brookdale University Park sits at 66 certified beds in Birmingham, run by a for-profit corporation. Staffing works out to 3.90 nurse hours per resident day, essentially matching the national average, though weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Annual turnover of 44.6% lands slightly better than the national figure, which means less churn than many peers but still a workforce that changes over regularly. The real concern is the inspection record: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 17 deficiencies on file, one tied to abuse. Nothing currently rises to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was June 2024. Ask directly what that abuse citation involved.

Civic Center Health and Rehabilitation runs 95 beds in Birmingham under corporate for-profit ownership, and its numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8 percent under the national average, and weekends run about 20 percent leaner than weekdays, which matters when families visit and needs don't pause. Staff turnover hits 50 percent, higher than the 45.8 percent national figure, so continuity of caregivers is a real question. The current inspection record shows 10 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the last inspection was in March 2024. Quality and staffing measures rate well above average; the health inspection side trails.

Fair Haven is a 259-bed nonprofit home in Birmingham, and its strongest card is raw nursing hours: 4.38 per resident per day, about 13% above the national average. That said, weekends run roughly 9% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your family sees on a Tuesday isn't quite what shows up on a Sunday. The inspection record carries 11 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, none at the harm or jeopardy level, plus 10 fines totaling $31,615. The last full inspection was in June 2021, which is a long stretch without a fresh look. Ownership is nonprofit, and quality measures score well, but staffing consistency and that dated inspection are the real caveats here.

South Health and Rehabilitation runs a for-profit shop with 83 beds in Birmingham, and the staffing numbers are genuinely a bright spot: 4.19 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average of 3.86. That's real coverage. But look closer and the picture gets uneven, weekends run roughly 27% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover sits at 53.4% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people providing that care keep changing. Inspections tell a similar story: six deficiencies on record, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with $8,569 in fines and the last full look coming back in August 2023. Good weekday staffing, shakier consistency.

Staffing at Galleria Woods runs about 4.36 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 13 percent above the national figure, and that shows up in its staffing rating. The catch is turnover: close to 70 percent of staff left over the past year, well above the 45.8 percent national average, so the people providing that care are often new. On inspections, the record shows 10 deficiencies with none at the harm level and no abuse findings, but the last full look was December 2021, a long gap. A for-profit corporation operates this 30-bed home, and weekend coverage dips slightly below its own weekday level.

The Healthcare Center Of Eastview runs 92 beds in Birmingham under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 14% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. Turnover is 36.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in the workforce even if raw hours fall short. The current record shows 8 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but one tied to abuse, and the last inspection was September 2023. Quality measures score well; the inspection history is the weaker piece.

Greenbriar At The Altamont runs 95 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national average, 3.87 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationwide. That's not a cushion, it's a tie, and weekends dip about 19% below the home's own weekday coverage, so care looks thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover at 43.7% edges just under the 45.8% national figure, a modest positive. Six deficiencies are on record with none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The last inspection was April 2021, meaning the public picture is roughly five years stale.

The numbers here tell two different stories. Nurse staffing runs 4.86 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and that earned a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating, genuinely good coverage on paper. But weekend hours drop about 16% below the facility's own weekday level, so the care you'd see on a Saturday looks thinner than a Tuesday. Staff turnover sits at 62.4% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people providing that care are relatively new. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 17 deficiencies, one serious enough to cause harm, and a $16,801 fine, all from a January 2024 visit. Ask how they've addressed that harm-level finding since.

Self Skilled Nursing & Rehab runs 131 certified beds in Hueytown, and the staffing number is the genuine bright spot here, 4.20 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, and it earns a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating from CMS. Look closer and the picture complicates. Weekend coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 51.1% against a national average of 45.8%. What pulls the overall picture down is the inspection history: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 20 deficiencies on the current record, and a last inspection date of March 2021, meaning that record is now years old. None of those deficiencies were flagged at the harm or jeopardy level, and none were abuse-related.

Aspire Physical Recovery Center At Hoover runs 4.80 nurse hours per resident day, about 24% above the national average of 3.86, and that staffing shows up in its four-out-of-five staffing rating. Two things pull against it. Weekend coverage drops roughly 22% below weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 67.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning a large share of the people providing that above-average care are new or on their way out. The health inspection record is the bigger concern: a one-out-of-five rating, 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection dates to June 2023. No abuse deficiencies are on record.

South Haven runs on a for-profit, individually owned model with 101 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, just slightly above the national average of 3.86. That edge narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 22% below weekday levels, so the weekday-to-weekend gap is worth asking about directly. Staff turnover lands at 50% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning roughly half the nursing team turns over in a year. The current record shows 12 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. Three stars on health inspection and two on quality measures point to room for improvement, while the last inspection dates to July 2022.

Oaks On Parkwood has enough nurses. At 3.97 hours per resident day, staffing sits slightly above the national average, and CMS gives it top marks there, a rare bright spot. But that same federal data flags real problems: 20 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse. The last full health inspection was in May 2021, so that record is years old now. Weekend coverage drops about 16% below weekday levels, and turnover runs near the national rate. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders, but the inspection history is what a family should weigh here.

The numbers here tell a mixed story. Staffing sits at 4.18 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, which is genuinely good, but weekends run about 24% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your family sees on a Tuesday isn't what shows up on a Sunday. Annual turnover of 53.2% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, against a national average near 46%, and that churn matters more than raw hours when it comes to knowing your mother's habits and preferences. Eighteen deficiencies sit on the record, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and none involved abuse. The last inspection was February 2022, over three years ago, so that record is aging.

Redmont Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 163 beds in Birmingham under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.48 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 59.6% against a national average of 45.8%, so the aides and nurses your family would see most often are cycling through faster than usual. The current record shows 15 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in October 2022, meaning that snapshot is getting old. Federal ratings land at three stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing. Nothing here is alarming, but the thin weekend coverage and heavy turnover are the parts worth asking about directly.

Elite Nursing and Rehabilitation Care Center runs 143 certified beds in Birmingham under for-profit LLC ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.28 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and weekends drop about 9% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover of 52.4% tops the national rate of 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, including one abuse-related citation, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and CMS has fined the home $6,682 across a single penalty. Its last inspection was March 29, 2024. Quality and staffing measures both land at 3 out of 5 stars, while health inspections sit at 1.

Northgate runs on thin nursing coverage, 3.19 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 18% below what the home manages Monday through Friday. That staffing picture gets harder to defend next to a 78.6% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents are frequently new or on their way out. The inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, three involving actual harm or jeopardy and two tied to abuse, along with three fines totaling $17,346. One recent inspection in January 2025 produced a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5.

East Glen runs 108 beds in Birmingham under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.66 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 18% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters most when families visit and when residents need help. Annual turnover is 56.9%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so caregivers change often. The inspection record shows seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last full inspection in March 2023. Federal ratings land at three stars for health inspections, three for staffing, and four for quality measures, decent care measures propped up by thin and shifting staffing.
