Staff turnover

Mountain Meadows runs about 110 beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86. The bigger thing to notice is weekends: staffing drops roughly 22% below what the home runs on weekdays, so if your family member needs more help on a Saturday or Sunday, that gap matters. Turnover is 45.7%, essentially identical to the national rate, so this isn't a home bleeding staff faster than everyone else. The last inspection was August 2025, with 17 deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related. Quality scores are strong, though the inspection and staffing ratings both land mid-range.

The Springs Batesville runs 150 beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, which is a real point in its favor. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops about 13% below weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 57.3% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for your family member change often. Its inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in August 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspections land middle of the pack.

Wood-Lawn Heights

Staff turnover

Wood-Lawn Heights runs on strong staffing: 4.89 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27% above the national average, and the 5/5 staffing rating reflects that. Turnover sits at 30.8% against a national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. Weekend coverage dips about 17% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The concerning part is quality measures, where the home scores 1/5. Thirteen deficiencies are on record, two at harm or jeopardy level, though none are abuse-related, and fines total $12,695. The most recent inspection was August 2025. As a nonprofit, it isn't answering to shareholders, but ask directly what's behind those two serious deficiencies and the low quality scores.
