Cedar Crest Nursing And Rehabilitation Center

Sunnyvale, CA · Santa Clara County

CMS 4/599 bedsFor-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
4.27 /day
Staff turnover
24%
Serious cites
0

Cedar Crest runs a for-profit operation with 99 beds, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture. At 4.27 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 13% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover is 23.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The 32 deficiencies on record sound high until you see none reached harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Quality measures scored 5/5, staffing 4/5, health inspections 3/5, solid on outcomes, thinner on the inspection side.

Canyon Springs Post-Acute runs 199 certified beds in San Jose under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.69 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 4% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 31.6% against a national 45.8% means the aides and nurses here stick around longer than most, which matters for residents who need consistent hands. The inspection record is where caution creeps in, 53 total deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, though the most recent survey was May 2025, so that picture is fairly current.

Courtyard Care Center sits in San Jose with 76 certified beds and an owner that's a for-profit limited liability company. Nurse staffing runs 4.21 hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average, though weekends fall roughly 10% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover of 37.8% is better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the real question mark: 41 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with the most recent inspection on January 31, 2025. Staffing looks solid on paper; the citation history is what a family should ask about directly.

Inspire Behavioral Health runs 116 certified beds in San Jose under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the hard part: 40 deficiencies on file, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one abuse-related citation. CMS gave it a single star for health inspections, though the quality measure score came back at five. Staffing sits at 2.43 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 37% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday levels. Turnover is the one bright spot at 31.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The most recent inspection was November 5, 2025.

Staff turnover

Villa Siena runs 30 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 6.04 hours per resident day, roughly 56% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 4% below its own weekday level, and annual staff turnover is 15.2% against a national average of 45.8%. Those are unusually steady numbers for a home this size. The inspection record is where it gets mixed. The last visit was July 28, 2025, and the current file carries 34 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level but three tied to abuse. CMS scored quality measures and staffing at 1 out of 5 stars each, with a 3 out of 5 on health inspections, worth asking about directly before you decide.

Palo Alto Post-Acute runs on 4.32 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average, though weekend coverage drops about 15% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 45.2%, essentially matching the national rate, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025. What stands out is the record itself: 38 deficiencies, two of them abuse-related, none serious enough to trigger a harm or jeopardy citation. That combination, strong quality scores, solid weekday staffing, and a long citation history, is worth asking about directly before you tour.

Los Altos Post-Acute runs a for-profit LLC with 152 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.15 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, though weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels. That weekday strength is real, but the margin thins out when families visit most. Annual turnover is 52.4%, nearly seven points above the national figure, which means the person caring for your relative may be new to the building. The current record shows 49 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. The last inspection was February 2025, so the picture is recent, and its four-star inspection and quality ratings reflect that.

Baywood Post Acute runs 45 beds in Campbell under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.36 hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average. That's the strongest part of the picture. Weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, though, and annual turnover hits 48.1%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record carries 34 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent visit was April 2025. State surveyors rated health inspections 3 out of 5, quality measures 4 out of 5, staffing 3 out of 5. Solid staffing, a long deficiency list, and recent oversight, that's where this one actually stands.

Nurse hours

22%

The Villas At Saratoga runs on a for-profit LLC model with 86 certified beds, and its staffing is genuinely better than most: 4.39 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Turnover sits at 21.5%, well under the 45.8% national figure, though weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels. Where it gets harder to defend is the inspection record: 60 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $40,323 in fines across two events. The most recent inspection was December 2024. Strong day-to-day staffing, but a compliance history that a family should read closely before deciding.

Staff turnover

Woodlands Healthcare Center in Los Gatos runs 4.14 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, though weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 46.5%, essentially the national rate, so expect some churn among caregivers. The 5/5 inspection rating is the strongest part of the picture, helped by a recent February 2025 survey, but 26 deficiencies are on record, one abuse-related, none at the harm or jeopardy level. Quality measures land at 3/5, and at 65 beds this for-profit LLC is small enough that a single bad stretch of staffing can show up fast.

Plum Tree Care Center runs 4.53 nurse staffing hours per resident per day, about 17 percent above the national average, and its 42.6% turnover is slightly better than the 45.8% norm. That said, weekend staffing drops roughly 8% below its own weekday levels. The 33 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus an $8,018 fine, are worth asking about directly. The last inspection was March 2025, so the record is reasonably current. A for-profit LLC with 76 beds, it earns solid marks on quality measures and inspections but middling on staffing.

Morgan Hill Healthcare Center runs 52 certified beds as a for-profit LLC, with nursing hours at 3.81 per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends about 3% leaner than weekdays. The standout number is staff turnover at 28.6%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most places. But the inspection record gives pause: 47 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, and $17,261 in fines. The most recent inspection came in April 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well; the compliance history is where the trouble sits.

Serious cites

San Jose Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 4.52 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17% above the national average, and that staffing shows up in a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 11% below the home's own weekday level. Inspections tell a more mixed story: 42 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related citation, with the most recent visit in March 2025. This is a for-profit limited liability company with 58 certified beds, so there's less margin to absorb a bad stretch of staffing than you'd find at a larger operator.

Skyline Healthcare Center in San Jose runs 253 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and its staffing numbers look better than most: 4.07 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, with turnover at 38.9% compared to 45.8% nationally. That's the good news. The inspection record tells a different story, 91 deficiencies on file, including four tied to abuse and three serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus a $105,089 fine. A June 2025 inspection is recent, so this isn't stale history. Staffing can be adequate and a building can still fail at the basics of protecting residents. Those abuse and harm-level findings are what tip this one down to a D.

The Win Post-Acute runs 4.01 nurse hours per resident per day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 45.6%, essentially matching the national rate. What stands out is the inspection record: 35 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and three tied to abuse, despite a recent May 2025 inspection and strong marks on quality measures. For-profit corporate ownership rounds out the picture. The numbers suggest a home that performs well on paper measures but has real compliance issues worth asking about directly.

Gilroy Healthcare Center runs 134 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits just above the national average, 3.95 hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover is the harder number: 52.2% of staff leave annually, well above the 45.8% national rate, so the people caring for your family member change often. The inspection record is the real concern: 33 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $69,735 fine and a one-star health inspection rating. Quality measures score well, but recent inspections in mid-2025 still found serious problems.

Creekside Post-Acute runs 130 beds in San Jose under for-profit LLC ownership, and the recent inspection record is solid, a four-star health inspection rating with the last survey in December 2024. Staffing sits at 4.15 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, though weekends run about 8% thinner than weekdays. The bigger red flag is turnover: 57.2% annually against a 45.8% national average, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. That churn shows up in 42 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse. One fine totaling $20,248 has been levied.

Sunnyvale Post-Acute Center runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers cut both ways. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.20 hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, and turnover at 30.9% is well below the 45.8% norm, but weekends dip about 10% below weekday levels, and CMS gives staffing just 2 of 5 stars. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 67 deficiencies, six tied to abuse, and a 1-star health inspection rating, with the most recent survey in October 2024. No deficiencies rose to harm or jeopardy level, and quality measures scored 4 of 5, which keeps this from being a clear avoid, but ask pointed questions about that abuse history and weekend coverage before deciding.

Cupertino Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 170 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, modestly ahead of the national average, though weekends drop about 6% below its own weekday level. The inspection record is where you'll want to slow down: 71 deficiencies on file, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. State inspectors last visited in December 2025. Quality measures score well, and the health inspection rating lands mid-range, but that volume of cited problems, especially the serious ones, is the number that should shape your questions before a tour.

Serious cites

This 37-bed pediatric subacute home in Saratoga has strong inspection and quality ratings from CMS, but the 17 deficiencies on its current record deserve a closer look. None of those rose to the level of actual harm or immediate jeopardy, which is genuinely meaningful, but three are abuse-related, a category worth asking about directly, since even non-harm citations in that area can point to gaps in how staff screen, supervise, or report. The last inspection was recent, February 2026, so this is a current picture, not a stale one. A limited liability company operating for profit means you'll want to ask who's actually on-site overnight and how often licensed nurses are present, especially in a pediatric setting.
