Every Medicare-certified nursing home in Arizona, graded on inspections, staffing, turnover
and enforcement history.
6 homes in the state sit in the federal Special Focus programme.
The staffing numbers here are genuinely strong, 5.32 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average, with turnover at 29.2% versus 45.8% nationally. That kind of consistency matters for daily care. But the inspection record tells a different story: 40 deficiencies, including three at the harm level and seven tied to abuse. That combination, good staffing, troubling oversight findings, is what pulls the overall picture down.
Haven Of Lake Havasu runs 104 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nursing hours come in at 3.37 per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, with weekends about 9% lighter than weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 52.5% against a national 45.8%, and the current record carries 27 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse. The health inspection rating is 1 out of 5, though the quality measure rating is 5 and staffing 2, which tells you the clinical numbers look better than the oversight history. Inspectors were last on site February 2025, and fines total $8,018.
Maryland Gardens runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.58 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, so the shifts when families visit most are the ones stretched thinnest. Turnover tells a bigger story: 70.2% of staff leave annually, compared with 45.8% nationally, which for a 58-bed building means a lot of unfamiliar faces. The 25 deficiencies on record include 9 tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was July 2024. Its quality measures look strong; the inspection and staffing picture is where the caution sits.
Immanuel Campus Of Care runs 228 certified beds in Peoria under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers pull in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 4.75 hours per resident day, roughly 23% above the national average, and turnover is 23.1% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing care are largely staying put, and weekend coverage drops only about 9% from weekday levels. What undercuts that is the inspection record: 36 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 16 tied to abuse, with a January 2025 inspection date and $18,529 in fines. Strong staffing and a troubled compliance history can coexist, and here they do.
The Lingenfelter Center runs 88 certified beds in Kingman under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 8% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 46.4%, close to the national 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing staff turns over in a year. The current record holds 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but six are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Inspectors last visited in June 2024.
Advanced Health Care of Glendale runs a 54-bed for-profit operation in Maricopa County, and the nurse staffing here is genuinely above average, 5.18 hours per resident day against a national figure of 3.86. Weekends thin out by roughly 13% compared to weekdays, which is worth knowing if most of your visits fall on a Saturday or Sunday. Staff turnover sits at 59.8%, well above the 45.8% national rate, so expect some churn among the people providing care. The inspection record is clean where it counts: eight deficiencies total, none involving harm or abuse, and the most recent survey was in February 2026.
Oasis Pavilion runs leaner on nursing hours than most homes, 3.30 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, so a Saturday problem may take longer to catch. Turnover sits at 41.6%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because familiar aides notice changes sooner. The inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, including 8 tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and three fines total $13,761. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. A recent inspection closed in December 2025, so the picture is current. Ask about weekend coverage and how abuse allegations get investigated.
The Arizona State Veteran Home in Yuma runs 80 certified beds and puts 5.58 nursing hours behind each resident every day, roughly 44 percent above the national average of 3.86. That staffing shows up in its four-star rating, though weekends dip about 11 percent below its own weekday coverage.
The inspection side is where it gets less comfortable. Eight deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse. Its health inspection rating is 2 out of 5, and the most recent survey was September 20, 2024.
State-run ownership with that much daily nursing time is a genuine strength. The abuse-related findings and the thin inspection score are the parts worth asking about directly.
Diamondback Healthcare Center runs 4.91 nurse hours per resident day, about 27% above the national average of 3.86. That's a lot of hands on deck during the week. But weekend staffing drops roughly 15% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 72.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning nearly three-quarters of the nursing staff leaves each year. Ten deficiencies sit on record, none at the harm level, though two are abuse-related, with $5,073 in fines across two incidents. Inspections are recent, and quality and health inspection ratings both land at 4 of 5. The pattern: good weekday coverage, churning staff, and a state survey that hasn't found serious harm.
Haven Of Show Low runs on 2.80 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27 percent below the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 11 percent below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 59 percent against a national 45.8, so the people who do show up are frequently new. Its current record carries 33 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus $46,852 in fines. The quality measure score looks strong, but that reflects charted care, not the hands available to deliver it. The last inspection was August 2024.
Havasu Nursing Center runs about 3.09 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and the gap widens on weekends, when staffing drops another 15% from its own weekday level. That thin coverage helps explain a 2-out-of-5 staffing rating, and it's compounded by 58.3% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses cycling through the building are often new to it.
The health inspection side is steadier: a 3-out-of-5 rating, 15 deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. State inspectors last visited in April 2025.
Prescott Valley Nursing & Rehabilitation runs on 2.95 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 15% below what it provides on weekdays. That thin schedule shows up in the staffing rating, which sits at the bottom of CMS's scale, and in turnover: 59.3% of staff left over the past year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record carries 31 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and six tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,278. The last full inspection was November 2023, so that record is getting old. Strong quality measure scores don't offset a floor staffed this lightly.
Haven Of Lakeside runs 112 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers tell a mixed story. Total nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident day, roughly 11 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 8 percent thinner than weekdays, so the coverage gap widens exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 51.2 percent is well above the national 45.8 percent, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over every year.
The bigger concern is the inspection record: 48 deficiencies, including 13 abuse-related citations and one at the harm or jeopardy level, with a single fine of $8,278 and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. The most recent inspection was November 19, 2025.
Nurse staffing at Winslow Campus of Care runs 0.45 hours per resident day, roughly a tenth of the national average, an extraordinary gap. That's not a rounding quirk; it's the kind of number that shapes every shift. Annual turnover sits at 72.5%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses who do show up are often new. Behind that: 46 deficiencies on the current record, 22 of them abuse-related and 3 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus five fines totaling $117,139. The quality star rating is 4 out of 5, which may reflect care processes on paper, but inspectors last visited in January 2025 and rated health inspections 1 out of 5.
Haven Of Sedona runs on 2.91 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 17% below its own weekday staffing. Annual turnover sits at 50.7% against a national 45.8%, so even the hours that exist are often delivered by people still learning the building. Inspectors have cited 50 deficiencies, nine tied to abuse, and CMS keeps the home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the small share of homes with a pattern of serious problems, though none of the current citations reached harm or jeopardy. The 5/5 quality measure score and April 2026 inspection are the strong points; staffing and enforcement history are not.
Sandstone of Tucson Rehab Centre runs 240 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.76 nurse hours per resident day, about 3% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday levels, and turnover runs 46.4%, slightly above the national 45.8%. What stands out most is the inspection record: 63 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 27 tied to abuse, with $55,090 in fines across two penalties. That history is what drives the one-star health inspection rating, even though the quality measure score sits at the top and staffing rates well. The last inspection was April 2026. Ask about the abuse-related citations directly before deciding.
Rehab At Scottsdale Village Square has real staffing depth, 5.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 30% above the national average, and turnover at 38.4% is better than the 45.8% norm. Weekend coverage dips only slightly, about 6% under weekdays. But the compliance record is where this home separates from the pack: 68 deficiencies, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and 35 tied to abuse. Eleven fines add up to $199,344, and CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a pattern of serious, repeated problems. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Good staffing numbers can coexist with a troubled record; here, they do.
Dr Guy Gorman Sr Care Home has enough nurses on paper, 4.09 hours per resident day, a bit more than the national average, but the weekend dip of about 17% means the coverage isn't steady across the week. The inspection record is the real problem: 64 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, eight tied to abuse, and $127,634 in fines. Being placed in the Special Focus Facility program means CMS has flagged this home for closer monitoring than most. That combination of thin weekend staffing and a long, serious deficiency history is what's driving the low grade, not the raw staffing number.
Sunview runs a split record. Nurse staffing sits at 4.47 hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, and turnover of 41.2% is slightly better than the typical home. Those are real strengths, and the 5/5 quality measure rating reflects them. But the inspection side tells a different story: 19 deficiencies on record, 2 at harm or jeopardy level, 5 abuse-related, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the most persistently troubled homes. Weekend staffing drops roughly 15% below weekday levels, which matters when falls and emergencies don't wait for Monday. The last inspection was September 2024.
Palm Valley Post Acute runs 180 certified beds in Goodyear under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are more mixed than they first look. Total nurse hours sit slightly above the national average, and turnover at 41.1% is actually below the norm, but weekend coverage drops about 6% from weekday levels.
The inspection record is where the picture darkens. Forty-eight deficiencies are on file, including 19 tied to abuse and six serious enough to put residents in harm or jeopardy, which is why CMS has placed this home in its Special Focus Facility program. That designation isn't routine, it flags homes with a persistent pattern of poor care. One fine totaling $82,607 is also on record.
