Staff turnover
44%

The Springs Jonesboro runs 136 beds as a for-profit LLC, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, about 3% above the national average. That edge shrinks on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 19% below its own weekday level, so the floor is thinner exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover lands at 43.5%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure, and the home's 15 deficiencies include no harm-or-jeopardy citations, though one is abuse-related. Its last inspection was June 13, 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, staffing, come in at 4 of 5.

Lakeside Health And Rehab runs 85 certified beds in Lake City under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.99 hours per resident day, roughly 3% above the national average of 3.86. That edge shrinks on weekends, when coverage drops about 19% below the home's own weekday level, and staff turnover is 50.6% against a national 45.8%. The bigger issue is the inspection record: nine deficiencies, two of them at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $41,902. Its most recent inspection was May 1, 2026, and its health inspection rating is 1 out of 5. The 3-star quality measure rating doesn't offset that.

Monette Manor runs 4.06 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average of 3.86, but that staffing thins on weekends, dropping roughly 10% below its own weekday level. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 19 deficiencies, one of them abuse-related, plus six fines totaling $24,309 and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. Quality measures also sit at 1 out of 5. The last inspection was April 2026. So you have a for-profit LLC with above-average overall staffing but a steady pattern of cited problems and weak marks on both inspections and resident outcomes. Families should ask specifically what that abuse citation involved and how weekend coverage is handled.

Ridgecrest Health And Rehabilitation

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
67%

Ridgecrest runs 135 beds in Jonesboro under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits right at the edge of average: 3.94 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86. That thin margin matters less than what happens on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 17% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover of 67.1% is the bigger signal, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents are frequently new. Inspections in December 2025 turned up 43 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, which is a real distinction. The health inspection and staffing ratings both land at 2 out of 5, while quality measures reach 3.

St Elizabeth's Place runs about 110 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers show a home stretched thinner than most. Nurse staffing sits at 3.41 hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average, and weekends drop another 10% below what the home itself provides on weekdays, so coverage is at its lightest exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is heavy: 25 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus one tied to abuse, and $21,828 in fines. Staff turnover of 56.8% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers are cycling through. All three CMS ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, land at two out of five stars.

Craighead Nursing Center is county-owned, which matters in Arkansas because government-run homes often operate with different budget pressures than for-profit chains. Five deficiencies on the current record sounds like a lot until you look at severity: none rose to actual harm or jeopardy, and none involved abuse. That's the distinction that separates paperwork problems from safety problems. The last inspection closed out in December 2025, so the picture is current, not stale. What the record doesn't show is the kind of repeat, high-severity citations that tend to follow residents around. For a 121-bed county home, that's a fairly quiet file, the kind you'd want to ask about in person, but not one that raises immediate alarm.
