Kaweah Health Skilled Nursing Center

CMS 5/570 bedsGovernmentMedicaid
Nurse hours
7.00 /day
Staff turnover
24%
Serious cites
0

Kaweah Health Skilled Nursing Center is run by the local hospital district, and its staffing reflects that: 7.00 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 81% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips only about 5% below weekday levels, so care doesn't thin out much on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 23.6%, about half the national rate, which matters more than any single inspection score because it means the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, one at the harm level, with no abuse citations, and the most recent survey was in January 2026. Quality measures score 5/5, though the staffing star comes in lower at 3/5 despite those hours.

Linwood Meadows Care Center

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Linwood Meadows runs 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop roughly 8% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 36.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. The catch is the inspection record: 54 deficiencies on file, including one abuse-related citation, with no harm-level findings, and the last state visit was May 2025. Quality measures score well, but the 2/5 inspection rating is where the real story lives. This is a for-profit LLC with 98 beds, and the numbers suggest decent daily care alongside a documented compliance history worth asking about directly.

Delta Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 4.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average of 3.86, that's the strongest thing in its file. Weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday staffing, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. The 29 deficiencies on record sound like a lot, but none rose to harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures score high and inspections look solid; staffing stars sit low, which usually reflects retention and turnover rather than raw hours. It's a for-profit partnership, 44 beds, and the numbers hold up.

Visalia Post Acute

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
42%
Serious cites

Visalia Post Acute runs 176 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the hard part: 69 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse. That's a lot of documented problems for a single home, and CMS's one-star health inspection rating reflects it. Staffing sits at 3.76 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average, with weekends running about 4% lighter than weekdays. Turnover at 41.8% is actually a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The quality measure score looks strong on paper, but that's built from resident assessment data, not from what inspectors found when they walked in.

Westgate Gardens Care Center

Westgate Gardens runs 140 beds in Visalia, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.13 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, though weekends drop about 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover lands at 45.3%, essentially matching the national figure of 45.8%, so retention here isn't unusually bad or unusually good. What stands out is the inspection record: 54 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a $10,317 fine attached. The last inspection was February 2025, so the record is current. Strong quality-measure scores sit alongside that history, worth asking about directly when you visit.

Sequoia Vista

Nurse hours
4.91 /day
Staff turnover
52%
Serious cites

Sequoia Vista reports 4.91 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 27% above the national average of 3.86, which sounds like a lot until you notice weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays and turnover sits at 51.6% against a national 45.8%. The 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating is the part I'd weigh heaviest: 88 deficiencies on the current record, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus $46,078 in fines across two penalties. The quality measure score of 4 out of 5 and a staffing rating of 2 out of 5 don't offset that inspection history. This for-profit LLC's last inspection was December 5, 2024.
