Haven Of Yuma runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday coverage, so the gaps aren't evenly spread. Turnover lands at 39.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity. The health inspection side is the weak spot: 2 of 5 stars, 13 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none abuse-related. A July 2025 inspection means the record is recent. Quality measures score 5 of 5, but that's self-reported MDS data, not an outside observer.

The Center at Val Vista sits in Gilbert with 96 certified beds, individually owned for profit. Nurse staffing runs 4.64 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, and turnover comes in slightly under the national figure at 41.3%, both signs of an operation that keeps its people and staffs up. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits then. Six deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in late December 2023.

Villa Maria Post Acute runs 83 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nursing hours sit at 3.51 per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends thin out further, about 19% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters when a fall or infection doesn't wait for Monday. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with an $8,018 fine; the last survey was January 2026. Turnover is 41.8%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. Family surveys look strong, but staffing and inspection ratings sit at 2 out of 5. Ask about weekend nurse coverage and how that abuse deficiency was resolved.

Payson Care Center runs 163 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.96 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run roughly 10% thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover is the bigger concern: 53.5% annually against a national 45.8%. The current record shows 30 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but 7 tied to abuse; the last inspection was March 2025, and the health inspection rating is 2 out of 5. Strong quality measures (4/5) coexist with that weaker inspection history, so weigh recent survey findings as heavily as the quality scores suggest.

Wellsprings of Gilbert is a small for-profit home, 32 beds, that runs on solid fundamentals. Nurse staffing sits at 4.07 hours per resident per day, about 5% above the national average, and the health inspection and quality measure ratings both come back at the top of the scale, with only four deficiencies on record and none involving harm, jeopardy, or abuse. The last inspection was in October 2024, so the picture is current.
What holds it back from the top tier is staffing consistency: weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover of 48.6% runs a few points above the national average. Those aren't red flags; they're the difference between a good home and a great one.

Mission Palms Post Acute runs leaner than the typical U.S. nursing home, 3.54 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 10% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 37.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. The inspection record shows 16 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though 5 are abuse-related, a category worth asking about directly. Maricopa County's last survey was in February 2026, so the record is recent. For-profit LLC ownership and 160 beds round out the picture.

Plaza Healthcare in Scottsdale runs 179 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing: 5.84 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average of 3.86. That cushion matters, though weekends dip about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the weekday strength isn't perfectly even across the week. Turnover sits at 47.7%, a touch above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is clean at the serious end, seven deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, but two are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. State inspectors were last in on May 8, 2026.

North Mountain Medical runs 5.94 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 54 percent above the national average, but CMS still gives it only 2 of 5 stars for staffing. That gap is worth sitting with: weekend coverage drops about 11 percent below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 43 percent, slightly better than the 45.8 percent national figure, though still meaning most of the people caring for your relative are relatively new. Inspections look strong on paper, with 5-star ratings for health inspections and quality measures and just 4 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level. One is abuse-related, which you should ask about directly.

The Legacy Rehab & Care Center runs 3.53 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 8 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 10 percent below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 41.7 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure. What stands out is the inspection record: a 5/5 health inspection rating, four total deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and a current inspection dated May 2026. Staffing and quality measures both land at 3/5. In short, the care environment has been clean on paper, but the daily coverage is thinner than average, especially on weekends.

Lake Pleasant Post Acute runs 3.32 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday coverage. That thin margin shows up in the staffing rating, 2 out of 5, and in a 50% annual turnover rate, which runs above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record carries 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though 2 are abuse-related, with the most recent inspection on February 26, 2026. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, so the clinical numbers look better than the day-to-day coverage does. For-profit, limited liability ownership, 128 beds.

Rio Vista Post Acute runs 150 beds in Peoria under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a 4 out of 5 on health inspections, a recent April 2025 visit, and no abuse deficiencies among the 12 on file. That one harm-level deficiency is worth asking about directly.
The staffing picture is where it thins out. At 3.48 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 10% under the national average, weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday levels, and turnover at 48.9% runs above the national figure.
So you have a home that inspects well but runs leaner than average on the floor, especially Saturdays and Sundays. Ask how they staff weekends.

Springdale Village Post Acute runs slightly lean on nurse staffing, 3.78 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get thinner still, about 15% below its own weekday coverage. That gap matters because families visit on weekends and that's often when problems surface. Annual turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for your relative may not be the people who were there last year. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 29 deficiencies, one abuse-related, and a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating from CMS, even though its quality measures score well and its last full inspection was in April 2024. For-profit, limited liability ownership. Worth asking about that abuse citation and weekend coverage specifically.

River Park Post Acute runs 66 beds in Chandler under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection history is mostly solid, a 4 out of 5 on health inspections, last surveyed in April 2025, with 11 deficiencies on record. The concern is the one at harm or jeopardy level, plus two abuse-related citations. Staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover is 53.1% against a national 45.8%. Quality measures score a perfect 5, but that's family surveys and clinical metrics, it doesn't offset thin weekend coverage or the abuse findings. Ask specifically what those two citations involved.

The Peaks runs a solid nursing floor on paper: 4.52 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17% above the national average, which earns its staffing marks. The catch is consistency and oversight. Weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday level, turnover sits at 58.6% against a national 45.8%, and its last inspection in November 2024 left 28 deficiencies on record, including four tied to abuse and one at the harm or jeopardy level. A nonprofit with 58 beds and a recent two-star health inspection history means families should ask directly how weekends are covered and what changed after that harm finding.

Citadel Post Acute runs 128 beds in Mesa under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, five deficiencies on the current books, none at the harm or jeopardy level, with the last state visit in February 2025. That one abuse-related citation is worth asking about directly. Where the numbers thin out is daily staffing: 3.55 nurse hours per resident, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 43.8%, slightly better than the national 45.8%. Quality measures score well, but quality scores reflect past performance, not who's on the floor on a Sunday.

Montecito Post Acute runs 4.21 nursing hours per resident per day, about 9 percent above the national average, and its staff turnover of 34.2 percent sits well below the typical 45.8 percent, that kind of retention usually shows up in how consistently residents see the same faces. The trade-off is weekends, when staffing drops roughly 17 percent below the home's own weekday level. Eighteen deficiencies are on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with a single fine of $8,278; nothing abuse-related. Inspectors last visited in February 2025. For a 222-bed corporate-owned building, the staffing and quality numbers carry more weight than the citation count.

Osborn Health and Rehabilitation runs 130 beds in Scottsdale under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a five-star health inspection rating with just eight deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or jeopardy. Staffing tells a more mixed story. At 4.20 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% above the national average, but that margin narrows on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover of 58.1% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for how well residents know their caregivers. The one abuse-related deficiency is worth asking about directly.

Ridgecrest Post Acute runs 200 beds in Phoenix under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a split story. Nurse staffing sits at 4.03 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 7% below its own weekday levels and annual turnover hits 58.8% against a national 45.8%, that's a lot of churn. The health inspection side looks steadier: a 4-out-of-5 star rating, last survey in late February 2026, and 15 deficiencies on record with none at the harm or jeopardy level. Two abuse-related citations are worth asking about directly. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, yet staffing earns only 2.

Life Care Center of Scottsdale runs 132 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, modestly above the national average of 3.86. That edge narrows on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 14% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover is the bigger concern at 61.3%, well above the national 45.8%, which matters for residents who rely on consistent caregivers. The inspection record shows 15 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse, and a single fine of $6,414. A recent August 2025 inspection and strong quality measure scores offset some of that, but the turnover number is the one worth asking about directly.

Shea Post Acute Rehabilitation Center in Scottsdale runs on 3.30 nurse hours per resident day, about 14% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends are staffed roughly 17% lighter than weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 47.5%, slightly above the national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for your family member may be newer than you'd expect. The good news: the last state inspection was December 2024, the record shows 11 deficiencies with none at the harm level, and both the inspection and quality measure ratings come back at the top score. One abuse-related deficiency is worth asking about directly. Strong clinical outcomes, thinner staffing, that's the real tradeoff here.
