Nursing homes across Lake County, California, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Lakeport Post Acute runs leaner than most homes on nurse staffing, 3.51 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover at 29.8% is notably better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn among the people actually providing care. The inspection record is the harder read: 49 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a two-star health inspection rating, though the most recent inspection came in June 2025. Quality measures score well, but that reflects resident outcomes on paper, not how consistently the building is staffed or cited.
Rocky Point Care Center runs 4.30 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average of 3.86, and its 41.8% turnover is a touch better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere. Those are real positives, and the staffing star reflects them. The trouble sits on the health inspection side: 40 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection dated March 13, 2026. Weekend staffing drops about 10% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins when families tend to visit. The quality measure star is strong, but quality measures are self-reported. The inspection record is the part worth asking about directly.
Meadowood runs 4.13 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average, but that edge thins out on weekends, when staffing drops roughly 6% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 44.9%, essentially the national rate, so the crew is not unusually stable. The trouble is the inspection record: 64 deficiencies, including six at harm or jeopardy level and eight tied to abuse, with $91,067 in fines and a January 2026 inspection that earned one star out of five. Quality measures score five stars, but those are largely self-reported, and corporate ownership gives no reason to expect the pattern to change.
